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."

Speed limits are for lesser mortals.
I figured it was Sammy Hagar.
Can’t hold them for a dog anymore. Brand new SCOTUS decision. DUI checkpoints are somehow still constitutional.’
A few years ago, a motorcycle cop on Obama’s motorcade detail in Hawaii spun out of control and died.

But the speed limit is NOT 85...It was 65 and she was exceeding it by 30 mph...
AGAINST THE LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There was no proof of Clinton’s motorcade speeding. Moron Brits videoed the speedometer on their own rental car, and put it on the internet. Rental company will be interested.
Beer run ?
Bingo!
I think they like to do that. We had Obama pass a few times in front of our home at 85mpg.
He got to see the dirty fingers when he went by.
Black ice, where art thee?
Key phrase:
“However, Iowa law enforcement, instead of criticizing Clinton, blasted and threatened the reporters following her motorcade...”
The state law enforcement jerks need to be fired for not enforcing the speed law. If you want to knock the federal fascists into the ropes, enforce state law. Fine them. Throw them in jail. Confiscate their property.
Racing to the money is very Clintonian.
And what would happen to us going that fast? This woman needs to be in jail. Where’s the GOP??
Her minivan should be called ‘the broom’.
“It wasn’t a fundraiser she was headed to. Hillary was hungry and wanted to get to a Chipotle pronto.”
If that’s true, they probably drove even faster leaving Chipolte, with the widows down, trying to keep the “deadly gasses” forming in the vehicle which resulted from Hitlary’s bean burrito, from detonating!
yea, but those low limits are purely meant to get revenue from the “little people” at random.
Why does that make them morons?
Laws are for serfs.
