Bertie,a Truck Driver,is Told by the Boss,Percy,to Quickly Deliver a Load

Bertie,a truck driver,is told by the boss,Percy,to quickly deliver a load of steel and to get to the location within an hour.Bertie replied,"That's impossible-I'd have to go 90 miles per hour to do that." Percy said,"Well,you'd best get started." Not surprisingly,Bertie was stopped by a highway patrol officer and fined for both speeding and reckless driving.At court,Bertie told the judge that the ruling should be "not guilty" because Bertie was only acting upon orders of Bertie's boss.Is this reasoning correct?

A) Yes.
B) No.
C) Yes,but only if Bertie can establish that a written contract obligated the following of Percy's orders.
D) Yes,but only if Bertie has no previous record of speeding.
