No Trucks Allowed

I have been hauling fuel to filling stations in San Francisco ca for 9 years, same stations nite after nite. 12 stations a nite, 6 nites on, 3 nites off, 6 nites on 2 nites off.

This one station i deliver to around 10:30 pm every nite has its fills in such a position that you have to square the block and come in on a short section of road that has a no trucks sign.

I position my truck and climb out and there is this 6'6" black cop standing at the rear of my truck,"I said hi" and he pointed down the street and said with a deep voice,"SEE THAT SIGN? IT SAY'S NO TRUCKS" Now remember, i have been doing this 9 years and this was a first Now in no way was I trying to be funny, I just didn't no what to say so I pointed at the sign and said, "THAT SIGN SAYS NO BLACK TRUCKS, MINE IS BLUE" And no joke this big giant cop turned to where i could not see his face but by the movement around his gut i could tell he was laughing his tail off.

So I stood there not knowing what to expect and he turned and pointed his gigantic finger at me and said still trying to hold in his laughterHAVE A GOOD NITE, and he road on.
