I never try to give an "excuse" - the cop's heard anything I have to say twice already that day.
But:
Years ago my 4 year old son went into the hospital for a "high definition" MRI on his brain. I spent 2 hours in the MRI room while he was in the tube on a respirator. He came out and had wet himself while knocked out on the anesthesia. While still knocked out we changed his clothes and waited over an hour before they released him from the hospital. All this took much longer than we had expected and we were stressed out waiting for results (looking for tumors). Our daycare where our 1 year old son was at would close in an hour and a half and we had a 2 hour drive to get there. Jumped into the state color blue Grand Marquis and hauled arse out of Wichita.
Going down the 2 lane highway at 80-90 mph I made the mistake of telling my son he was going commando (we didn't have underwear in the hospital room when we changed his clothes). As kids who are sick (and drugged) will act he decided he wanted underwear on and he wanted it now! So my wife turns around in the seat (after saying I hope you're happy) and starts changing him in his seat.
That's when we met the cop, going at least 85 MPH in a 55, my wife's butt in the windshield, and a small child with no pants screaming in the back seat...... The cop walks up to my door and asks me what I thought I was doing at that speed with an unbuckled passenger in the front seat. I just hand him my license and said "Start writing". My wife suddenly chimes in about the hospital visit, the brain tumors, the other son that needed us at home, the screaming child, the wet pants and so on and so forth.... The cop looks at me like "you poor bast**d" and handed my license back and says to slow down and buckle up.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
