A man used a deer as a legal defense for speeding, saying that the animal was doing 40 mph in a 30 mph zone, not him.
Newburyport District Court Judge Peter Doyle disagreed and fined Dennis Sayers $105 for the speeding infraction, according to the Newburyport News.
"You're not contending the radar picked up the deer?" Doyle said.
Sayers said anything is possible.
According to speedofanimals.com, a white-tailed deer's top speed is about 30 mph.
