The Pope is currently visiting the USA which brings to mind a visit by one of his predecessors a few years ago.
His plane touched down at 2 am, there was no one at the airport to meet him apart from the limousine driver assigned to drive him to his hotel. The freeway was deserted at that time of the morning and his Holiness asked if he could have a drive of the limo' seeing as it was so quiet. Eventually the driver conceded and swapped places with his Holiness who cranked the limo' and was soon doing 140 mph down the deserted freeway.
Deserted that is except for a speed cop who gave chase but couldn't catch them. The cop called for backup and noted that he was chasing a flash limo' with an important passenger, when queried by the dispatcher as to how he knew the passenger was important he replied, "Well he must be pretty important, the Pope's his driver!"
