We all scream for ice…

…LOOK OUT FOR THAT CAR!!!

A woman who allegedly left the scene of a minor traffic accident in Western Arkansas told police the oldest excuse in the book.

No, not the dog ate the homework thing, the other oldest excuse.

Flora Burkhart told police she left her hit and run crime scene because she didn’t want her ice cream to melt, … and she didn’t think there was enough damage to warrant stopping.

Apparently, Burkhart’s car rear ended another vehicle on the highway late sundae evening (ice cream joke). She did not stop to check on the vehicle she hit, and the other driver called the police.

Burkhart was cited by the Fuzz for following another vehicle too closely and leaving the scene of an accident.

So remember, readers. If it ever comes down to following the law or eating your ice cream – FOLLOW THE LAW.

Or eat your ice cream really fast.

Just don’t blame us for the inevitable BRAIN FREEZE!!!
