When it comes to excuses, law enforcement officers tend to have heard them all. But recently two drivers came up with some novel excuses. When a driver in Western Australia was pulled over for driving 10 miles per hour over the speed limit, he told police, "The wind was pushing me." The comment didn't amuse the officer, or prevent him from writing a $150 ticket.

Then in the Chicago area, a 25-year-old woman was pulled over by police around 4:15 a.m. after officers watched her vehicle cross the center lane and the double yellow line. When officers pulled the vehicle over, the woman told them she was coming from a bar and "was doing nothing wrong," according to authorities. Then she told police she was driving to White Castle so she could "sober up." One of the police officers note, "Numerous avenues are available to those who chose to drink to get home safely such as Uber and Lyft. Driving around to sober up is not one of them."
