The Pope decided, one day, to go for a drive. Once the car was out of the Vatican and in the Italian countryside the Pope told his driver to stop.
"I'll have a drive now" he says.
"Ah! No , Your Holiness, I'm not allowed to let you drive"
"Nonsense" says the Pope.
"But, Holiness, it's not part of my job description"
"Listen. Am I not your boss?'
"Yes, Holiness."
"So, in the back'.
The Pope took off, soon they were going 100mph, the driver was starting to pray.
150 and the driver had his beads out and crossing himself with his eyes shut.
Then the inevitable police siren and the Pope pulled over and stopped.
Up swaggers an impressive and handsome cop (remember this is Italy).
Takes one look, turns white and staggers back to his car. His back up says "What's wrong?"
"Very important person".
"Not the Mayor again?".
"More important"
"The Provincial Governor?"
Even more important. The Pope's driving so it must be God in the back".
