Highway Number

A cop pulls over a carload of nuns.

The cop says, "Sister, this is a 55 MPH highway. Why are you going so slow?"

The Sister replies, "Sir, I saw a lot of signs that said 41, not 55."

The cop answers, "Oh, Sister, that's not the speed limit, that's the name of the highway you are on!"

The Sister says, "Oh! Silly me! Thanks for letting me know. I'll be more careful."

At this point, the cop looks in the backseat where the other nuns are shaking and trembling. The cop asks, "Excuse me, Sister, what's wrong with your friends back there? They are shaking something terrible."

The Sister answers, "We just got off Highway 101."

Alright listen up, you cotton-headed ninny muggin! The joke is that the nuns were scared because they thought Highway 101 was a speed limit of 101 mph, not the name of the road. You probably drive the same way, thinking the speed limit is just a suggestion. Fact: You're probably the reason my insurance rates are so high!
