When I (rarely) get pulled over for speeding I have found that telling the officer the truth about how fast I was going usually gets me a reduced fine or just a warning. But next time it happens, I may try to alter my approach. I know I would make a terrible cop, all the pizza delivery guys would know my weakness.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Iowa City police say a man who was driving drunk tried to bribe a police officer — with a sandwich.

Police say 25-year-old Mark Booth of Iowa City, was charged with drunken driving early Sunday morning.

Police say he was pulled over after an officer saw him driving with his headlights off.

Police say that Booth was riding with a police officer in a squad car when he offered the officer free sub sandwiches if he could go home.
