Driving to work, a gentlman had to swerve to avoid a box that fell out
of a truck in front of him.

Seconds later, a policeman pulled him over
for reckless driving.

Fortunately, another officer had seen the carton
in the road.

The policmen stopped traffic and recovered the box.

It was
found to contain large upholstery tacks.

"I'm sorry sir," the first trooper told the driver, "but I am still
going to have to write you a ticket."

Amazed, the driver asked for what.

The trooper replied, "Tacks evasion."
