Here is a creative excuse to use when the police pull you over:
A drunken motorist tried to claim spiritual immunity when traffic police stopped him near Baarn on Monday evening. He claimed to be Pope John Paul II, refused to get out of his car and turned the radio up loud.
The biggest question this presents is "What kind of music would the Pope listen to loud?" The whole excuse would work much better if your car actually resembled the "Popemobile". A really tall hat in the passenger seat would also lend a little credibility.
