Did you hear about the 83 year old woman who talked herself out of a speeding ticket by telling the young officer that she had to get there before she forgot where she was going?

Excuses for Speeding
Kitsap County , Washington, had begun to crack down on speeding motorists. Here's a list of some answers they received when they asked the drivers why they were speeding:
· My gas petal got stuck.
· Don't I get a couple miles per hour over when I'm taking my grandchildren to the airport?
· I didn't know I was speeding because my lights were off.
· My speedometer is broken.
· I had a bee in my car.
· I've been drinking and I wanted to get off the road quickly.
· I am driving my friend to the hospital. He has alcohol poisoning. (The driver was also found to be intoxicated.)
· (After crashing) I put high test gas in my car and it caused me to lose control. (He was also found to be intoxicated.)
· I'm trying to catch that UFO. Will you try to catch it for me?
· I get 10 extra miles per hour in the fast lane.
· I'm wearing shoes that are really heavy and they make the gas petal go down more.
· My doctor gave me the wrong medication.
· I'm headed to a divorce proceeding and if you met her, sir, you would understand why I'm in a hurry.
· I just got my license back after having it suspended and I'm not used to driving
