DeLorean Driver Gets The Best Speeding Ticket Ever

<div><p>Normally getting a speeding ticket is a bad thing, but a Santa Clarita DeLorean owner is actually pretty excited about the ticket he got this week. </p><div><figure><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/back-to-the-future-zZeCRfPyXi9UI" target="_blank"><amp-anim src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/giphy.gif" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-anim></a><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/back-to-the-future-zZeCRfPyXi9UI" target="_blank">Giphy</a></cite></figcaption></figure></div><p></p><div align="center" data-freestar-ad="__336x280 __789x280" id="throwbacks_articles_incontent _1"> </div><p></p><p>Spencer White was driving on the 14 Freeway with his mother, when they realized they were going 85 miles per hour. You can probably see where this is going. </p><p>“My mom, she’s looking at me and she just says, ‘Take it up to 88, let’s do it,” White said.</p><div><figure><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/back-to-the-future-xsF1FSDbjguis" target="_blank"><amp-anim src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/giphy-1.gif" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-anim></a><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite><a href="https://giphy.com/gifs/back-to-the-future-xsF1FSDbjguis" target="_blank">Giphy</a></cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>While they didn't break the space-time continuum, they did end up breaking something else - the speed limit. Of course, that was the exact moment White realized there was a cop car right behind him. Luckily, everyone saw the humor in the situation.</p><p>White described the officer as having a huge grin, "like he’s won the lottery.” He even let White snap a photo of the radar gun so there would be proof.</p><div><figure><a href="http://ktla.com/2017/05/29/delorean-driver-gets-pulled-over-for-driving-88-mph-exact-speed-in-back-to-the-future/" target="_blank"><amp-img src="https://legacy.throwbacks.com/content/images/2017/06/bttfradar.jpg" title="" alt="" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img></a><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite><a href="http://ktla.com/2017/05/29/delorean-driver-gets-pulled-over-for-driving-88-mph-exact-speed-in-back-to-the-future/" target="_blank">KTLA5</a></cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>Turns out Doc Brown was right, and when a DeLorean hits 88 miles per hour you're gonna see some serious shit. While he thought the hilarity of the situation would get the officer to let him off with a warning, White wasn't so lucky. What he got instead was a $400 speeding ticket. Fortunately, White didn't seem too bothered, describing it as "the dream ticket." </p><p>Too bad his DeLorean didn't have a flux capacitor, otherwise he might have been able to escape. </p><p>h/t: <a href="http://ktla.com/2017/05/29/delorean-driver-gets-pulled-over-for-driving-88-mph-exact-speed-in-back-to-the-future/" target="_blank">KTLA5</a></p><amp-iframe sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin" layout="responsive" frameborder="0" height="9" width="16" src="https://player.ooyala.com/static/v4/candidate/latest/skin-plugin/iframe.html?ec=xsaDJlYjE6IiPgkMvkZOyT3vsvppNVYH&amp;pbid=f987944e2b8d47c5ad7da7977780b8bd&amp;pcode=9vOTQyOvfOKTDwM65FXm0S1biBeX"></amp-iframe><p></p></div>
