How to Avoid Traffic Tickets

If I could only get one of these licenses...

Irish police had written over 50 tickets for various driving and parking violations to "Prawo Jazdy" but the driver kept giving different addresses, and the police had a mystery on their hands. It was recently solved when an officer translated "Prawo Jazdy" from Polish - it means "driver's license". Many people from Poland have immigrated to Ireland, and apparently brought their driver's licenses along. The words "Prawo Jazdy" were printed in the top right corner of the licence, and officers were mistaking it for the as the holder's name.

This is clever. Now if I could just come up with some "name" like that!
