A museum in Illinois just got a speeding ticket… for a car that can’t even drive.

Staff at the Volo Museum in Volo, Illinois say they received a $50 ticket in the mail from the City of New York claiming that one of their cars was caught speeding through a school zone. The car in question is actually a replica of KITT, the talking car from the classic TV show Knight Rider. Moreover, the car has been on display at the museum for years and hasn’t left the building.

Museum officials had a good laugh, but they’re also trying to clear things up with New York City. They believe the city’s system may have linked the speeding car’s novelty license plate reading “Knight” to the car in the museum. (WABC-TV New York)
