A: What's wrong, officer?
B: You do realize that you ran a red light, don't you?
A: I did?
B: You didn't see the red light?
A: I'm sorry for running it, but I really didn't know.
B: Didn't you learn that red means stop?
A: I know that.
B: Then tell me why you sped up on the yellow light.
A: I'm not sure.
B: I'm giving you a ticket for this.
A: I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.
B: Maybe you'll think about this before you decide to run another light.
