Lesson 16 A polite request
If youpark your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it. You
will be very lucky if he lets you go without a ticket. However, this does not
always happen. Traffic police are sometimes very polite. During a holiday in
Sweden, I found this note on my car:' Sir, we welcome you to our city. This is
a "No Parking" area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay
attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder.' If you receive a
request like this, you cannot fail to obey it!
