Even the caped-crusader can’t escape the long arm of the law.

Batman was taking young fan Sam on an adventure organised through Make-A-Wish New Zealand when the Dark Knight was nabbed by police.

The Batmobile was spotted "going a bit fast" through some roadworks and was pulled over by Constable Adrian Fisher of Counties Manukau Police.

After hearing Sam's story, the constable told Batman to, " tell Sam that I pulled you over to get your autograph."

Police said Sam had a pretty cool day.
