Way back when, dad was taking us to our uncles in Florida. We stopped for gas in Georgia and the service attendant told us how to get back on interstate 75, but we quickly found out we were north bound. Dad found a flat area and crossed the divided middle and headed south just as a state trooper came into view. He pulled us over. Having a window seat I was listening to the conversation. The trooper said , don't you know it is illegal to cross the median. Dad asked what a median was .. there are several signs stating it was illegal to cross the median, When the trooper explained , dad said , oh that grassy strip is called a median. The trooper smiled, and asked , Don't you have Interstates in east Tennessee, Dad said yes, we do, but I know where I am going up there. Trooper changed the ticket to a warning and told all of us to enjoy our vacation. Walked off laughing about country hicks shouldn't be driving.
