They recently had a case in NY where a woman was speeding, and when pulled over she insisted she had to get to the hospital (some BS story about her mother, I believe). The cop agrees to escort her, and on the way she calls in a fake 911 call from her car to send the cop elsewhere (made up a story of a domestic dispute with a gun). Got caught afterwards; I assume she’ll do time.
In many states anything over 85mph is automatically “reckless”.
Go Girl go.
Go, granny, go!
(I know, I know. She’s not from Pasadena. And she may not even be a granny. Yet.)
Just just don’t see her that way.
On a similar thread, someone said driving over 85 in AZ was a felony. I find that hard to believe. I can see a misdemeanor and a permanent record. I guess it is know before you go..
Saw that on “Live PD”. AZ trooper pulled a guy over and told him over 85 was a felony.
Did some snooping around. It is a class 3 misdemeanor unless you get busted with other charges like DUI..
Interesting. Thanks.
My first question was, "what was she driving?".
“In many states anything over 85mph is automatically “reckless”.”
Not in my state, Montana.
Heck, not too far from where I live is a school zone where you are required to slow to 55 MPH when the lights are flashing.
Holy crap. Sounds like Judge Jeannie is living the dream.
Once in the late eighties, I did a top-speed test of my ‘86 Honda Prelude on a flat, wide-open stretch of rural Minnesota highway in the middle of the day. The speedometer said 123 MPH, which I figured to be 117, and there wasn’t another soul in sight during the whole episode.
Now thirty years wiser, while I’m sure it’d be fun to go to 140 and beyond, ever since Montana abolished their “reasonable and prudent” speed limit, I can’t imagine finding myself in the right situation to do so.
