Talking his way out of a ticket

A male driver is pulled over by a cop and the following conversation takes place:
Man: What's the problem officer?
Cop: You were going at least 75 in a 55 zone. 
Man: No sir, I was going 65. 
Wife: Oh Harry. You were going 80.
(Man gives his wife a dirty look.) 
Cop: I'm also going to give you a ticket for your broken tail light. 
Man: Broken tail light? I didn't know about a broken tail light! 
Wife: Oh Harry, you've known about that tail light for weeks. 
(Man gives his wife a dirty look.) 
Cop: I'm also going to give you a citation for not wearing your seat belt. 
Man: Oh, I just took it off when you were walking up to the car. 
Wife: Oh Harry, you never wear your seat belt. 
Man: Shut your mouth, woman! 
Cop: Ma'am, does your husband always talk to you this way? 
Wife: No, only when he's drunk.
