Democratic Presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton's security detail led a handful of journalists on two lengthy high-speed chases to homes of influential Democrats on Monday. Her lone official appearance on her first day in New Hampshire was a carefully stage-managed small-business roundtable in Keene. But a lunchtime visit to a main-street bakery and two more appointments later in the day were off-the-books and under the public's radar. If police radar had been engaged, however, it would have clocked Hillary's signature black conversion van - 'Scooby', for the uninitiated hitting 92 mph in a driving rainstorm on Interstate 89, where the top speed limit is 65. No one in the motorcade displayed flashing lights or blasted a siren.

"The aristocrat throws out a few coins as compensation and speeds away." Similar to the motorcycle officer killed in Dallas back in 2008 while escorting Hillary.

Let’s see... someone with ambitions to be queen traveling at an extreme rate of speed in dangerous conditions while being pursued by paparazzi.
Sounds vaguely familiar. Wonder if the SS driver was drunk.

Those type of full size vans are notorious for blowing tires, running off the road, and rolling. They had better slow down.

Driving 92MPH in a Van while it is raining is a good way to eat a tree.

And if the van skidded off the highway and hit a tree, what would they say then? They would say it was because those evil republicans wouldn't spend the money to repair the nations worn out highways.

How about what if the van slid out of control and hit a van with a single mother and three small children, killing them all?

That’s what I thought too...90+MPH in a heavy rain...is a death wish, which is where I think the driver was headed but missed.
Can you imagine having to drive that thing with her in it??

I’d feel bad for the tree, but sometimes sacrifices must be made.

I’m surprised that her horse whip works so well on Secret Service agents.
