Edited:

I was reading a story about police officers who stopped a man while driving a car. 

Jimmy, the driver, and his wife were driving home from the supermarket. She always tells him, “You are driving too quickly, you have to drive slowly, Jimmy.”

Jimmy didn’t take his wife’s advice, and then policemen had waved to them to make them stop their car.

“Where do you think you are? On a race track? You must have been driving seventy miles an hour,” said one of the police officers.

“Sorry officer, I didn’t know,“Jimmy answered.

“Yes, that’s true because I stopped you for doing seventy miles an hour.”

“I am really sorry, I must have been dreaming,” Jimmy said.

“Can you show me your driving license, I won’t punish you this time, but you had better not do it again.”

“Thanks officer, I will certainly be more careful. ”

After that, Jimmy ‘s wife said: “Why you don’t listen what I say, you had better take my advice next time “” yeah, maybe I will “.
