DescriptionRep. Dan Lungren (R-Calif.) had to cut short a radio interview Friday morning after a Virginia police officer pulled him over for speeding.

Lungren, who had called into Sacramento station KFBK to discuss internationalizing Megan's Law, stopped moments after the interview began, saying "Uh, uh, I have to get off the phone just a moment here. ... I'm sorry, I'm talking with a police officer here."

While the officer was deciding whether to cite him, the congressman called the station back, and completed the interview in a few minutes.


He was issued a warning.
