Ok, you have gotten youself into a heck of a bind. You're driving along, singing ti the radio and minding your own business when all of a sudden you hear the loud wail of a police siren. Your heart starts pounding,and your hands are sweaty. You're thinking,omg why didn't I pull my foot off of that accelerator before that cop showed up? Maybe it was something else you did. What are you going to say,or have said already to the cop if you were to get pulled over? Are you going to try and think up an excuse to try and get out of getting a ticket?

well my dear friend to tell you the the truth in your case as you have said i would put my thinking caps on and tell the police cop that my husband has been admitted at the hospital and that was the reason why i had to drive the car so fast because justa few minutes back i had received a call from someone that he had met with an acciden and had been admitted in the hospital and after giving this excuse i sincerely hope that the polive would surely leave me off.After all he also has a human heart.

So this tactic is one that may and may not work? Whether they let you or anyone else go I think would depend on the situation.

Another problem with that is if the officer decided to "escort" you to the hospital. The second problem is that they could check out your story in a heartbeat. Then you could be in even deeper trouble. One of my business law professors said for the women to tell the officer that they needed to go to the bathroom. Take it from me that it doesn't always work.
