A Man's Excuse For Doing 100 Miles-An-Hour In A 50 MPH Zone? He Was Trying To Dry Off His Car

Last week, the police in Naperville, Illinois, pulled over 24-year-old Lucas Wright in his 2006 Honda Accord.  Lucas was doing ONE HUNDRED miles-an-hour in a 50 mph zone.  And he gave them a perfectly logical explanation . . . at least in his eyes.

The police say that Lucas told them, quote, "He'd just gotten his car washed and he was trying to dry it off."  And he wasn't lying . . . when they checked out his car, it was, in fact, wet.  And it was still drying when they impounded it and towed it away.

Lucas was arrested and charged with a misdemeanor for going 40 miles-per-hour or more over the posted limit.
