Speeding Excuse?

As a contributor to the Holliston Reporter a electronic newspaper in Massachusetts. USA I am amused by some of the reports that are printed like this one below

"When asked by a young patrol officer "Do You know you were speeding?"
this 83-year-old woman gave the young officer an ear to ear smile and stated:
"Yes , but ... I had to get there before I forgot where I was going."
The officer put his ticket book away and bid her good day."

mmmmm I wonder if I could get away with that on? !!!!!

I heard a good one from a guy in traffic school. He said he was speeding to dry his car off.

That's similar to one I heard "He wanted to get to filling station before he ran out"

Mine didn't get a good response.....

I said "I'm looking for a sh**house".........he said "you've found one - what's your name and address"!!!
