Speeding...

GOOD: Seattle, WA policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders, but wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem- a 12- year-old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which read 'RADAR TRAP AHEAD'. The officer also found the boy had an accomplice who was down the road with a sign reading 'TIPS' and a bucket full of money (And we used to just sell lemonade!)

BETTER: A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an automated radar post in . A $40 speeding ticket was included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of $40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.

BEST: A Young woman was pulled over for speeding. A Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book, she said,'I bet you are going to sell me a ticket to the State Trooper's Ball.' He replied, 'Washington State Troopers don't have balls.' There was a moment of silence. He then closed his book, got back in his patrol car and left.

It probably was a member of the lawn service. They would have access to something large enough to dig it up and carry it off, whereas most people wouldn't.
