Hillary Clinton apparently is in one heck of a hurry to become president.
While fleeing from the press to an unannounced fundraiser in Waterloo, Iowa, Clinton's six-car motorcade, including her maroon minivan dubbed "Scooby," was clocked traveling at up to 95 mph by reporters giving chase, the Daily Mail reports.
The speed limit for that stretch of highway is 65 mph, The Daily Caller reported.
While Clinton's staff denies the motorcade was speeding, the Daily Mail posted a speedometer video taken by a reporter showing the speeds at which they were driving in an attempt to keep up with Clinton to find out where the candidate was going.
However, Iowa law enforcement, instead of criticizing Clinton, blasted and threatened the reporters following her motorcade, The Des Moines Register reports.
Iowa Department of Public Safety spokesman Alex Murphy told the Register, "Amateur video that shows such behavior, which itself demonstrates a violation of the law by presumably untrained individuals, does not negate the fact that law enforcement takes action based on public safety and protection of the people who have been identified as potential targets."
"These types of dangerous driving behavior by amateurs may well result in law enforcement action. The designation of an individual as a protected person is taken seriously in Iowa."

Laws only apply to the little people.
Beer run ?
Sounds like the Chief and his spokesperson should be FIRED.
Who authorized that? Hillary?
If I was a cop, I would arrest the driver for reckless driving.
Then ask for a drug dog.
Maybe get everyone to wait on the curb.
I hear she hired a presently-unemployed railroad engineer as her driver.
check the source....LOLOLOL
game set match....drive safely.
How many celebrities have died in car crashes while “fleeing” from photographers? It would be great if it happened to Hillary.
95mph isn’t that outrageous on a rural interstate.
I think the speed limit should be 85 on most of them.
Not note worthy unless there was someone killed as countless times before ...
If I was part of her staff, I’d want to spend as little time with her as possible, too.
This reads a lot like satire.
It wasn’t a fundraiser she was headed to. Hillary was hungry and wanted to get to a Chipotle pronto.
If desperate for cash award from insurance settlement, install a gps linked dash cam and let the Clinton campaign rear end you on the interstate.
She'll be rear ending you on a daily basis for four to eight years anyway, so you might as well get out in front of the problem.
back in oh-8 (then a Pantsuit candidate for POTIS) Nurse Ratchet’s motorcade, killed a Dallas officer while racing thu town.

Fast Eddie Rendell used to be clocked at 110 on the Pennsylvania Turnpike from Philly to Harrisburg all the time.
All the kings men...They're all on the payroll.
