From Times Wire Reports

Pennsylvania’s Department of Transportation is offering Pittsburgh residents ready-made excuse cards on the Internet allowing them to blame their tardiness on the Fort Pitt Tunnel and bridge construction project.
A Web site devoted to the project, https://www.epenndot.com, allows the city’s 75,000 daily commuters to click on “Excuse Me!” and fill out a form explaining their untimeliness.
