A man was stopped at a checkpoint

A man was stopped at a checkpoint on the way home from a visit to Mexico.

The blonde border guard said, “Get out of the car and open the trunk!”

The traveler replied, “I’m sorry, but the handbrake on the car is broken. I can’t take my foot off the brake or it’ll roll backwards!”

The guard, “Do you take me for a FOOL?! That won’t keep me from inspecting things!”

He gets into the car himself, in the passenger’s seat, and applies the brake himself.

“Now,” he says, “That takes care of that, now go and open the trunk!!”

So the traveler complies and opens the trunk of the car.

“Now”, shouts the guard from inside the car, “Are there any drugs or contraband in there?”
