I like this - will have to remember to try it

If a cop busts you for hauling tail down the highway, you'd better have a good excuse … or at the very least an entertaining one.

A Swiss driver caught zooming down the road at 100 mph in eastern Ontario, Canada, went for the latter of the two options when he told the cop he was taking advantage of the ability to speed without hitting a goat, Reuters reports.

Police said it was, in fact, the first time they'd ever been given the 'irresistible goat-free motorway' excuse for a case of the lead foot.

"I've never been to Switzerland but obviously they must have a problem with that there," said police spokesman Joel Doiron.

Sadly for the accelerator-happy traveler, cops don't award bonus points for creativity. He was issued a $330 speeding ticket.

The goat defense. I'll have to try that next time.

That reminds me. 2 weeks and I'm free!
