What driver never gets arrested?

A screw driver

Why this works

This riddle plays on the double meaning of the word "driver." In one sense, a "driver" refers to someone who operates a vehicle, which could lead to arrest if they break the law. In contrast, a "screwdriver" is a tool used to drive screws into materials, and of course, it cannot be arrested because it is an inanimate object. The humor and cleverness come from the unexpected twist in meaning!

Common Wrong Answers

“Taxi driver”

A taxi driver is a real person who drives a vehicle and can be arrested for various reasons, which contradicts the premise of the riddle.

“Bus driver”

Similar to a taxi driver, a bus driver is also a human who operates a vehicle and can face legal consequences, thus not fitting the criteria of never getting arrested.

“Race car driver”

Race car drivers are professional drivers who can also be subjected to laws and regulations, making them susceptible to arrest, unlike the inanimate object referenced in the riddle.
