Essex, England police ticketed Nigel Mills, 55, for speeding in his DeLorean. He was apparently going 88mph (although his top speed was 89mph). Mills insists that he “wasn’t trying to time travel.”
“Me and the rest of my family enjoyed the Back to the Future films,” he said about his purchase of the DeLorean. “When I’m out in it a few people recognise it, they slow down and take pictures – drivers take pictures out of their windows or try to film you and I get approached at petrol stations.”
Mills’s ticket was tossed out of court when the two officers who cited him didn’t show up. Probably because Mills erased them from existence.
