An Arizona driver who said he was late for work ended up taking a much bigger detour than expected. According to DPS, a state trooper spotted the driver on Loop 101 using the shoulder to get around traffic while trying to make it to his shift. He was pulled over in a nearby parking lot — where he told the trooper his shift was about to start in just a few minutes. But a quick check made things worse. Authorities say the driver’s license was suspended, and he had a prior stop for driving over 100 MPH. Instead of clocking in, the driver was arrested for reckless driving and driving on a suspended license. He was taken to jail, and his vehicle was impounded for 20 days. Safe to say… being a few minutes late might’ve been the better option. What would you have done in that situation? Via AZDPS Highway Patrol #arizona #phoenix #aztraffic #localnews #news
