Of course your employer can send you home for being late.
There is no law addressing this topic, so how many minutes an employee is allowed to be late depends on the employer.

I guess you could be fired for being late
Being late Can affect your record which is then judged by your employer. If your late usually and your excuse for the poor punctuality is not "up to scrstch"n then im afraif you could be fired ... expelled (From School) Etc...
There's no law concerning being late for work. Each company has rules. They expect you to be on time. Yes, they can fire you for being late.
Do just the opposite - be early all the time, and so you will get in a habit or being early that you won't have to worry about being late. And if you are late, then you are late, and it's no big deal, things happen. So just get into a habit of being 5 minutes early to everything so you never have to worry about being late.

YES, absolutely. Unless your employer told you that he/she expected you to be late a few time.
While it may explain why you're late for work, it would not be a very wise excuse to give to your employer for a few reasons.1) Admitting you broke the law to your employer. Regardless of the governments innocent until proven guilty, telling your employer you were pulled over suggests you violated the law.2) Punctuality & Time Management, Your employer is going to assume you're lacking in both these departments. One because you're late, the other assumes you were speeding to get to work on time or in such a rush as to disregard the law.3) Not a good excuse in general. Being stopped by the police doesn't negate your basic responsibilities to your employer, such as clocking in on time.
All you have to do is wake up and leave 30 minutes earlier.
