Outkast‘s Andre 3000 (aka Andre Benjamin) was arrested this weekend for driving waaaaayyyy too fast.

The rapper was pulled over by Georgia cops for

speeding early Saturday after clocking his 2007 Porsche Carrera going 109 miles per hour in a 65 mph zone

His excuse?

he was in such a hurry because he had missed his exit on the way to a birthday party and had hastily turned around.

Um.  Now I don’t claim to own anything as fast as a Carrera, but when I’m running late, I don’t risk life and limb, especially just for a birthday party.    Which I am sure he missed by being in police custody for 3 hours or so before he was bailed out.  It’s just not a good idea to drive that fast.

“Traveling that fast along I-75, you’re passing vehicles almost like they’re standing still,” Henry County Police Capt. Jason Bolton told Atlanta’s WSB-TV. “And it’s an accident waiting to happen.”

Luckily, no one was hurt!
