Northfield police: Jesus hasn’t saved you from a parking ticket, however…

I saw this car on Jefferson Road this morning. 

Back window: "JESUS HAS SAVED ME"

Side window: "HELL AIN’T FUN"

Ticket on windshield with note: "TRAFFIC COURT AIN’T FUN EITHER BUT IF YOU PAY ON TIME, YOU WILL BE SAVED — ADDITIONAL CHARGES."

Heh. Our Northfield cops sure are funny.

    I hope the cop doesn’t get in trouble for that. Finding a sense of humor amongst others is refreshing these days. And yeah, I thought the note was funny and not disrespectful.

  2. Considering this is filed under “Faux news/fluff/police,” one can wonder if Griff did not perhaps stage this one himself!

    True enough. I’m hoping this was fluff rather than faux, as even Griff must realize that some things are only funny when they’re real.

    No worries, Phil and Susan. The car, the writing on the windows, and the ticket were all as I found them. The note, however…

    It wasn’t much fun waking up to that ticket, let me tell you.

    JD- At least the car was where it had been parked. Trying to get one out of an impound lot is more like h***.
