This excuse won't work, it was worth a shot though...............

From news.com.au:

Lamborghini driver caught allegedly speeding to coronavirus clinic

A Sydney man has had his licence suspended after police allegedly caught him speeding to a coronavirus clinic.

Just before 7pm on Monday night, police spotted the 35-year-old man allegedly driving his Lamborghini at speeds of up to 160km/h in a 90km/h zone along Sydney's M4.

The man was pulled over in Lidcombe, in Sydney's west, and allegedly told the officer he was on his way to Westmead Hospital to get tested for coronavirus.

The officer, who followed appropriate protocols, fined the man and suspended his licence.

The man then continued to the clinic to be tested before undergoing mandatory self-isolation, NSW Polie said.

Traffic and Highway Patrol Commandeer, Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy, issued a warning to motorists.

“Drivers shouldn’t break the road rules under any circumstances,” Assistant Commissioner Corboy said.

“Speeding endangers the life of motorists as well as pedestrians.”

“If you think you may have symptoms of COVID-19 and want to seek help from a doctor or hospital, call ahead of time to book an appointment, or visit a NSW Health COVID-19/Flu assessment clinic should you become unwell.”
