That's why they're doubling up.

Driving a vehicle is grounds to be shot.

Those documents don't help when the guy with a gun can't read.

In a lot of places in South Asia, it's common to place small religious shrines on the dash of a car to ward off bad luck. Just thought I'd mention for no reason.

Better off carrying a hand grenade and pulling the pin as soon as you're pulled over.

Only if you're not white, or seem to be leftwing

I’ve seen your car, I still think you’re getting pulled over

But do you have the latest ranged defence system with active threat detection, automatic manoeuvre solution generation and trajectory determined smart countermeasure deployment, which provides protection from APCBC, SAPHECBC, APFSDS, HEATFS ATGM-OTA and ATGM-VT*?

There's not even a wide spectrum RADAR over there.

  • No SSN on that card and it’s not signed.
  • “United States Birth Certificate” is neither a Certificate of Live Birth Abroad nor marked for the particular domestic county of your birth.
  • That Driver’s License ain’t from my state
  • Incorrect number of stars on your flag
  • Hat is unworn
  • Francis Scott Key didn’t produce a modern recording of the anthem

Well, it looks like you might be trying to pull a fast one with all those fake documents and faux patriotism. Step out of the vehicle–you’re off to El Salvador.

Yeah... Good luck thinking that
