Safety Joke of the Week

September 23, 2009

A Fine Day for Safety

A police officer was having a slow day, when he sees a car driving 10 km/hr (6 mph) over the posted speed limit. He turns on his lights and sirens and pulls the vehicle over. After getting the driver’s license and registration the officer proceeds to give the man an $84 fine.

The driver then looks at the officer with a grin on his face and says, “I’m an Occupational Health and Safety Officer. You aren’t wearing a high visibility vest, which is a safety infraction.” The guy then hands the police officer a $250 fine and tells him to have a nice day.

Moral of the story? Don’t mess with an Occupational Health and Safety Officer - they can be vicious.

    Good site I'll be back, Thanks

    Argh. Just what we need - more combative safety types.

    Good joke; thanks!
    To have some fun also...Flomax is a product for prostate issues. Find it funny the word compression with flomax. Measure the force against the prostate during treatment?!

    Yes, Flomax is a product for prostate issues, it is a joke around here, the bosses didn't realize it when they named the company. The commercial is hilarious for it, makes me laugh every time.

    Life is full of comedy of errors. It is not just combative safety types but more of each professional doing his duty.

    Both guys [police and safety officer] in the same level to put fine, but we can not do the same action in Indonesia coz safety is not kind of goverment institution such as police.
