The quantum mechanic's ultimate traffic violation! That wave function on the right isn't just any graph—it's the probability distribution of a quantum particle. So when the officer asks "You know how fast you were going?" the physicist can legitimately answer "Well, according to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, I knew exactly where I was, so I had absolutely no idea how fast I was going!" The more precisely you measure position, the less precisely you can know momentum. No wonder the ticket says "everywhere and nowhere" under speed limit violation.
