She gave a phony excuse for being late to the meeting.
None. Apologize, then be there on time next time. Never give an excuse unless you're asked for one. Then, the best excuse is the most honest one. If you were to give an excuse for being late at school say locker jam, bully, washroom, I was in class but left to check/get something, etc. . . or just tell the truth! i love school so i never be late

According to a Career Builder survey, traffic is the most common reason for running 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...
A lame excuse is an excuse of poor quality or lack of thought. For instance, a man was late for work and he had no real reason why, so when his boss asked him why he was late, he quickly thought up something and said, "I over slept." His boss replied, "That's a lame excuse." or meaning that it was not a good excuse or good reason to be late to work.
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.
