EASY MISTAKE

An old woman was driving home to Eastbourne on the Saudi coast of England one day when she noticed what looked like a microwave oven abandoned on die side of die road. The woman stopped to pick it up hoping that her son, who was an electrician, could make it work. The woman was so excited with her find that she tried to get home as fast as she could and didn't notice that she was speeding. Inevitably she was pulled over by the police. The police officer noticed, on the backseat of her car, the object that die woman had picked up. It was not a microwave, but a speed-monitoring camera. Despite the old woman's protests, the police arrested her and charged her with theft of government property.
