A drunken Irishman is driving through the city

One evening, an Irishman was driving through the streets of Dublin when his car began weaving wildly from one side of the road to the other.

A police officer noticed his unusual driving and quickly pulled him over.

“Right then, sir,” the officer said as he approached the window. “Where have you been tonight?”

“I’ve been at the pub,” the man replied with a heavy slur.

The officer raised an eyebrow. “Judging by the way you’re driving, I’d say you’ve had quite a few drinks.”

The Irishman grinned proudly. “I did all right, didn’t I?”

The officer folded his arms and continued, “Well, sir, did you know that a few miles back, your wife fell out of your car?”

The man’s face suddenly brightened with relief.

“Oh, thank heavens!” he exclaimed.

The officer stared at him in disbelief. “You’re relieved that your wife fell out of the car?”

The Irishman nodded happily and explained:

“For a minute there, I thought I’d gone deaf!”

The officer stood speechless, realizing that this driver’s sense of humor was just as unpredictable as his driving!
