What is the best excuse for speeding?
Police officers are often sympathetic to emergency situations, such as a medical issue or other dire situation.
However, needing to use the bathroom, "I was going with the flow of traffic", you got the wrong person, and similar excuses generally are not successful to avoid receiving a traffic ticket. Always be respectful and polite. This is your best bet. Further, asking for a warning cannot hurt.
