Police pull over driver, but their excuse for speeding will make you laugh A LOT

So speeding is not cool in any shape or form, but we couldn't help but laugh when we saw the reason for this parent's driving activity!

Dalwallinu police were out in force last Monday when they caught this parent speeding twice in 25-minutes. 

According to the police reports, the offender had been travelling at a speed of 99 kilometres per hour in a 60 kilometre zone. 

Not cool at all – but when they were asked what their reason for the rush was, their answer is absolutely hilarious.

Reason being; it could be any single one of us at any time!

"I needed to shit. Kids have given me gastro," commented the driver. 

Now we won't try to be saints here, we've all used our kids to tell a little white lie every now again – babysitter was late, kids were sick etc. 

But this, this is definitely a new one – will you be using this excuse any time soon?
