Seventy miles an hour

  • Look, Gar
  • That policeman's waving to you.
  • He wants you to stop.
  • Where do you think you are?
  • On a race track? /reɪs/
  • You must have been driving at seventy miles an hour.
  • I can't have been.
  • I was doing eighty when I overtook you.
  • Didn't you see the speed limit?
  • I'm afraid I didn't, officer.
  • I must have been dreaming.
  • He wasn't dreaming, officer.
  • I was telling him to drive slowly.
  • That's why I didn't see the sign.
  • Let me see your driving licence.
  • I won't charge you this time.
  • But you'd better not do it again!
  • Thank you.
  • I'll certainly be more careful.
  • I told you to drive slowly, Gary.
  • You always tell me to drive slowly, darling.
  • Well, next time you'd better take my advice!
