Driving home from a fishing trip in northern Michigan with his boat in tow, a man had engine trouble a few miles inland from Lake Huron. He didn’t have a cell phone with him, so he decided to use his marine radio to get help. Climbing into his boat, he broadcast his call sign and asked for assistance. A Coast Guard officer responded: “Please state your location.” The man replied, “I’m on Interstate 75, two miles south of Standish.” The officer paused. “Would you repeat that?” “Interstate 75, two miles south of Standish.” There was a longer pause. Then the officer asked: “Just how fast were you going when you hit the shoreline?”
