A Long Island woman lied about her mom being sick to get out of a speeding ticket– and then faked a domestic violence call to throw cops off her trail, police said.

After being stopped by Suffolk County cops early Thursday, Alfreda Chaplin, 43, told officers she was on her way to Brookhaven Memorial Hospital to see her dying mother.

Police said they’d follow her there to confirm her story.

She called 911 while driving to the hospital, gave a fake name and reported she’d been assaulted by her gun-wielding husband, hoping the officers following her would be called away.

Chaplin admitted to the lies after authorities determined the call had come from her car, police said.

She is being charged with falsely reporting an incident and was issued a summons for speeding.
