A cop frantically pulls over an older gentleman riding alone on a scooter.

“Sir,” the police officer said. “You realize your wife just fell off the back of your scooter?”

The man says “Oh, thank God!”

The cop looks at the guy incredulously, and says “Sir, I just told you your wife fell off and is seriously injured, and you say ‘thank God’?”

To which the elderly gent said, “Yeah. For a minute there, I thought I was going deaf!”
