The 15 All Time Worst Excuses For SPEEDING-Including THIS!

FOX NEWS-Iowa is known for its wide open spaces, but that doesn’t mean you can drive your Ferrari wide open through them. 

The Iowa State Patrol posted a photo to Facebook on Monday of a white Ferrari 488 Spider that was pulled over doing 137 mph near Mason City. 

But the driver had an excuse! Just not a good one. She told the officer that SHE THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING JUST 100 MPH. “Not a great idea to drive this fast in the rain,” the patrol wrote.  

The 488 Spider has a 660 hp twin-turbocharged V-8 and a top speed of 202 mph. At least she had the top of the convertible car closed in the rain.
