Relativity Meets Reality
When a physicist gets pulled over, they don't just break traffic laws—they violate the fundamental principles of reference frames! Instead of admitting to driving on the wrong side, our academic friend launches into a gloriously overcomplicated explanation about "spontaneous reversal of vehicular vector alignment" and "locally established inertial reference frames." Classic physicist move: if you can't avoid the ticket, at least make the officer question their career choices with terminology that would make Einstein reach for a dictionary.

Relativity Won't Save You From A Ticket
Nothing says "I'm a physicist" like trying to talk your way out of a speeding ticket with relative motion arguments. Sure, technically he was going -10 mph compared to the other car... in his reference frame. Unfortunately for our Einstein wannabe, traffic laws operate in the reference frame of the road, where he was probably doing 85 in a 55. Next time try explaining quantum tunneling through the police barrier instead — works just as well!
