BEST EXCUSE NOT TO GET CHARGED WITH SPEEDING

A man was driving home late one afternoon, and he was driving above
the speed limit. He notices a police car with its red lights on in
his rear view mirror. He thinks "I can outrun this guy," so he
floors it and the race is on. The cars are racing down the
highway -- 60, 70, 80, 90 miles an hour. Finally, as his
speedometer passes 100, the guy figures "what the heck," and gives
up. He pulls over to the curb. The police officer gets out of his
cruiser and approaches the car. He leans down and says "Listen
mister, I've had a really lousy day, and I just want to go home.
Give me a good excuse and I'll let you go."

The man thought for a moment and said, "Three weeks ago, my wife ran
off with a police officer. When I saw your cruiser in my rear view
mirror, I thought you were that officer and you were trying to give
her back to me!"
