A truck driver frequently traveled through Washington, DC. Of course, there were always politicians walking along the road near the US Capitol Building. The truck driver made it a practice to hit any pedestrian politicians with his truck as he sped by.
One day, he spotted a priest walking along the road and stopped to give him a ride. A little further along, as he approached the US Capitol Building, he spotted a politician walking along the side of the road.
Automatically, he veered his truck towards the politician, but then he remembered his passenger. He swerved back to the center, but he heard a “whump” and in the rear view mirror he spotted the politician rolling across the street.
He turned to the priest and said, “Father, I’m sure that I missed that politician.”
And the priest replied, “That’s OK, my son, I got him with the door.”
