Driver Uses Monopoly Card in Traffic Stop, But It Doesn’t Work
A driver in Minnesota attempted to use a ‘Get Out of Jail Free’ card from the board game Monopoly during a traffic stop. The Chisago County Sheriff’s Office shared the encounter on Facebook, stating that the driver handed the card to the deputy along with his driver’s license. Unfortunately for the driver, the state of Minnesota does not recognize the card as a valid document.
While the effort and humor of the driver were acknowledged by the Sheriff’s Office, the card was not enough to get out of the traffic violation. The Facebook post has garnered numerous comments, with some finding the incident amusing and others relating their own similar experiences.
While the use of the Monopoly card may seem like a harmless attempt at humor, it is important to note that traffic violations are a serious matter that should not be taken lightly. It is always important to follow traffic laws and regulations to ensure the safety of oneself and others on the road.
The driver had to face the consequences of their traffic violation, but their attempt to use the Monopoly card may have given the officers involved a brief moment of amusement.
Comments included:
- Was it a “bucket list” moment for the driver who tried to use the Monopoly card?
- Some questioned if the card is actually valid in Minnesota, given that many people seem to have gotten out of jail for free.
- One person joked that they would laugh if the driver had a wallet full of Monopoly money to pay for their fines.
- Another person shared a similar experience, where a driver tried to use the Monopoly card during a traffic stop, and asked if they could have it back when they received their ticket, only to be denied.
