That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard irax.

If you're getting pulled over for speeding, telling the officer that you have a broken speedo is only going to get you an additional fix-it ticket.

There's no way the patrolman is going to hop in your car and let you show him/her that the speedo is busted either. It's contrary to standard safety procedures.

Having a broken speedo is like having a busted tail-light... it's a fix-it ticket, regardless of other charges.

"It's broken officer" is the dumbest thing you can possibly say when you're getting written up for a speeding ticket. If you like that one, you might also want to try:
  • My tires are the wrong size, so my speedo doesn't show the right speed.
  • I don't know how fast I was going, I was just staying with the traffic.
  • I didn't see a sign for the posted speed limit, so I just stayed with the traffic.

If you manage to get any of these to save you from a speeding ticket, you must have really big boobs.
