SALISBURY, Conn. — Police say a man’s excuse for speeding through a small Connecticut town takes the cake — or, at least, the cookie. A state trooper who stopped a 1993 BMW last fall says its driver, Justin Vonkummer, 28, of Millerton, N.Y., blamed his driving problems on an errant Oreo.
Vonkummer told the trooper an Oreo had just slipped from his fingers as he dunked it in a cup of milk and that he was trying to fish it out when he lost control of his car. Vonkummer was charged with speeding and driving under a suspended license. His attorney declined to comment.
