If this idiot had just been as open and honest as this in his relationship, his life might be in slightly better shape . . .
52-year-old Jon Earl Pickard got pulled over near Tampa, Florida on Sunday night for driving over 90 miles an hour in a 55 zone.
And when the cop asked why he was speeding, he blurted out that he had to get home in a hurry . . . because he was out CHEATING ON HIS WIFE.
Apparently he thought the cop might give him a break for some reason. But instead, they ordered him out of the car . . . searched him . . . and found a small bag of CRACK in his shirt pocket.
He also freely admitted that he bought the crack for $50. So on top of the speeding ticket, he's facing one count of felony drug possession . . . and an upcoming divorce, we assume.
It's all public record now, so his wife knows where he was. He's due in court early next month.
(Here's his mugshot.)
