A woman was driving down a busy suburban road when a car sped up and suddenly pulled in front of her at the traffic lights. Enraged, the woman started sounding her horn, winding down the window, she began to hurl abuse as she shook her fist at the driver of the car in front of her. As the light turned green, the woman accelerated hard and overtook at the first opportunity before slamming on her brakes to give the driver a taste of his own medicine". As she continued her gesturing and bad-mannered driving, the car she was harassing suddenly lit up with blue and red flashing lights and the woman realised it was an unmarked police car.

The policeman arrested the woman, took her to the police station where she was photographed, finger printed and placed in a holding cell. After a number of hours, the policeman opened the cell door and escorted the woman to the front counter where she was given her keys and personal effects along with a traffic infringement notice. The policeman then said "I am sorry to put you though all this for a simple traffic infringement but madam, when you overtook me and began to hurl abuse at me from your window, I noticed a sticker on your car advertising the fact you go to a Christian church. I also noticed you had the Christian symbol of a fish and a sticker asking to "honk if you love Jesus" as well as a crucifix hanging from your rear vision mirror. When I saw all this, I naturally assumed you had stolen the vehicle"
