Southern Gentleman Gives Cop A Tap-Dancing Lesson During Traffic Stop - Inspirational Videos

One man in South Carolina found a unique way to avoid getting stuck with a ticket during a traffic stop.

Getting pulled over is essentially a rite of passage for drivers. It’s something that will happen to most people at one time or another. Unfortunately, these occurrences can often result in an expensive ticket and handing over hard-earned money, which is something no one ever enjoys doing. 

However, a man of advanced age missed out on a ticket when he was pulled over one night. A video posted to YouTube of a traffic stop in Pickens, South Carolina, shows how the man used his impressive moves and fancy footwork to delight and amuse the officer on scene.

The situation started after the female officer pulled over the white pickup truck for failure to maintain a lane. But soon after initiating the stop, the officer noticed something odd. The elderly driver was wearing fancy footwear, usually used to make music. 

In the video, as the man is gathering his identification, his shoes make noise several times. The officer mentions that she hears it, to which the elderly guy asks her if she can dance. 

Seconds later, footage from the officer’s dash camera shows the two dancing right on the side of the road. The elderly suspect gives the officer a lesson during the traffic stop. 

Before the clip ends, the officer has a request for the man. She wants to see him perform some moves in his clogging shoes.

“Can you, can you do some dance with that?” the officer asks.

The elderly man fulfills her request and away he goes, strutting his stuff right on the side of the road. The officer, who is heard giggling, is thoroughly impressed. 

“That’s awesome!” she remarks.

The man was literally able to dance his way out of a ticket. He only received a warning for his traffic violation. 

Psalm 30:11 “You have turned my mourning into dancing for me. You have removed my sackcloth, and clothed me with gladness.”
