The Best Excuse

Back to stories two
What is the best excuse you have given to the police for speeding?

I was pulled over for 82 in a 65.

The officer came up to my window, and asked what was the hurry?

I stated “I’m moving with the flow of traffic”

He looked around… saw that there was hardly anyone on the highway.. and said “ How can you move with the flow of traffic, when there isn’t any?”

I said “ well, someone has to start it, right?”

He laughed.. I laughed.. he gave me a verbal warning, and i went on my way.

It was a “you had to be there” moment.
