This is True

Wrong Way

Police in Skewen, Wales, stopped Peter Graham David, 69, for a closer look at his car’s license plate. The Ford’s plate, reading “DEUT 818”, was home made. Despite David’s explanation that he was a lay preacher and did not recognize earthly laws, police cited him for driving without registration or insurance. He says the license plate refers to Deuteronomy 8:18, which says God is the only source of power. (PA) ...Yet he still stopped regularly for petrol.
