This is not really a joke, but I feel I have to tell this. A very good friend and former coworker is in charge of the Parking Bureau in a NH city. They had given a woman a ticket for an expired handicap placard. She went in to contest the ticket and this was the conversation with my friend.
Woman: "I need to renew this expired handicap tag. I have the tag for my husband, who was in the car when I got the ticket"
My friend had checked the local obits before the woman arrived and found the husband had died 2 years previous.
Friend: "You say your husband was in the car? Hasn't he passed away?"
Woman: "Yes, but I have his ashes in an urn and it was in the car. I should be able to use the handicap tag if I have the urn in the car."
Final disposition: woman paid a $250 fine.
