Here, an experienced New Jersey traffic ticket attorney will share with you some excuses for speeding that have worked in the past:
- You are rushing your pregnant wife to the hospital because her water just broke.
- You got held up at work and are late to pick up your young daughter from school. You are worried about her waiting alone for you.
- You were trying to speed up to see the license plate of the car in front of you because the driver had thrown a beer bottle at you.
- You recently ate some bad fast food, and now you are rushing home because you have diarrhea.
- You are rushing home because your newly potty-trained 3-year-old child told you she has to go to the bathroom.
And here are some excuses that police officers have heard many times and do not usually work:
- You urgently had to go to the bathroom.
- There was a fly or bee in the car, and you were speeding up (with your windows down) to get it to fly out of the vehicle.
- You just saw the movie0 “The Fast and the Furious,” and it inspired you to drive faster.
- Your speedometer isn’t working properly.
- You just bought some ice cream and were trying to get home quickly so it wouldn’t melt.
- You were going with the flow of traffic.
- You thought the speed limit on that street was higher.
- Other cars around you were going faster.
- You are late to an important meeting.
- You didn’t realize how fast you were going.
