“I’m sick of people posting up [on social media] about how they’ve got a speeding ticket,” he said.

“I’ll give you the three easy steps to get away with a speeding ticket.

Step one, Benny urged, was to “look out the windy windy” or window, and observe the speed sign.

Describing Step two, the man points to the speedometer on his dashboard and instructs his viewers to take note.

“Have a looky looky on your f***in’ dash and see this thing here? This dial-ly thing? That’s the speedo,” he explains.

Step three, Benny said, was “where it gets interesting”.

“If you get your little dial-ly speedo thing on your dash to not go any more than the f***ing sign out the windy dindy, then you’ll get away with a speeding ticket. Because you’re not f***ing speeding!” he said.

“Slow down, d***head!”

The video has been watched almost a million times and shared more than 18,000 times.

After watching the short clip, one woman commented: “I definitely should have watched this before (because) I definitely have a minimum of three tickets in the mail.”

Another added: “I should have tried this sooner … who knew”

Well damn … here’s the secret,” a third wrote.
