SLOW DOWN OR STOP ????

 A motorcycle cop had just pulled over a red Porsche
after it  had run a stop sign.
 "May I see your driver's license and  registration please."
 
"What's the problem, officer?"
 
"You just ran that stop sign back there."
 
"Oh come on, pal, there wasn't a car within miles of me."
 
"Nevertheless sir, you are required to come to a complete stop,
look both ways, and proceed with caution."
 
"You gotta be kidding me!"
 
"It's no joke, sir."
 
"Look, I slowed down almost to a complete stop,
 saw no one  within twenty miles,  and proceeded with caution."
 
"That's beside the point, sir.
You are supposed come to a  complete stop,
 and you didn't.  Now if I may see your license."
 
"You've got a lot of time on your hands, pal.
 What's the  matter, all the doughnut shops closed?"
 
"Sir, I'll overlook that last comment.  
Let me see your  license and registration immediately."
 
"I will, if you can tell me the difference between slowing  down,
and coming to a complete stop."
 
The policeman had enough.
 "Sir, I can do better than that."  
He  opened the car door, dragged the rude motorist out,
and  proceeded to  methodically beat him
 over the head with his  nightstick.
 
"Now sir, would you like for me to slow down
 or come to a  complete stop?"
