The Police officer between the law and humanity

Police officer that chose humanity

A police officer stopped a young man’s car and, upon checking it, realized that his driving license had expired.

The police officer asked him why he was driving with an expired license.

He answered:

«They just fired me from my night job, and the money I have is only enough for me to eat, pay rent, and my bills. I am from another state and I have come here to study at university. Plus, I have a job interview».

The police officer had the option of applying the law and prohibiting the young man from driving his car, but he decided to listen to his heart.

He parked his police vehicle, helped him tie his tie, got into the young man’s car and accompanied him to the interview location.

They entered together. The police officer apologized and explained the reason for the young man’s delay. They hired him!

The young man got the job and obtained a temporary driving license until he raised enough money to renew his license.
