Aspiring actors in Bishop and Independence take note: Kit Harington spilled the beans about Jon Snow’s fate to avoid a speeding ticket.

The Game of Thrones actor was en route to his parents’ house when an officer pulled him over and gave him a choice. In an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Mr. Harington recalled the officer saying that “You could either follow me back to the police station now and I book you in. Or you can tell me whether you live in the next series of Game of Thrones.” After hearing his tale, the officer advised the actor to “keep the speed down this far south of the wall” and released him.

Kit Harington’s character was killed off, sort of, in Season 5.

Dealing with a 100+mph Ticket

Unless you happen to be rich and famous, trying to talk your way out of a VC 22348(b) infraction is probably a bad idea. These tickets are very expensive. When counting both the direct costs, like fines and penalty assessments, and indirect costs, like increased insurance rates, the total cost can be about $10,000 over seven years for a first infraction. Offenders are ineligible for traffic school and may have their drivers’ licenses suspended for up to 30 days.

If there is any legal defense or extenuating circumstances, many prosecutors are willing to reduce the charges to regular speeding. This could save thousands of dollars in insurance costs and avoid a drivers’ license suspension.
