Um…we know what you’re thinking, because the same thought crossed our minds too, but don’t cry fake yet. We can assure you, this a legit photo of a real incident because more images of this bizarre traffic stop surfaced online.

We first saw it on Hagerty Classic’s Facebook page and when some commentators questioned whether it was a Photoshop, eyewitnesses provided further proof.

To say that the driver of the battered Chevy truck with the NY license plates is reckless for hauling the Ford Taurus this way on the highway (or any other road shared with motorists), is the understatement of the year.

We’d like to believe that the cop didn’t stop at the ticket and forced the driver to bring a real truck to transport the Taurus.
