A Florida TikTok star deliberately sparked a 100mph police chase - then told cops who arrested him his wealth and youth made him immune from the law, it is claimed.

Damaury Mikula, 18, of Pasco, Florida, has more than four million followers on TikTok and has frequently posted content featuring his Dodge Challenger, a vehicle that can go up to 141mph with a top price of around $60,000.

The TikTok star, who is said to make $400,000 to $450,000 per year, was recorded on Friday being chased in that car by Pasco County Police at the intersection of State Route 54 at Sunlake Boulevard in Florida....

...'Mr. Mikula advised his state of mind was that he is young, makes a lot of money, and has a fast car and he can do whatever he wants,' Trooper W. Kelly of the Florida Highway Patrol told WFLA. ...

> The next morning, I was woken to the sound of that Pink Floyd song “Time” on full volume from his stereo, which he had rigged up as an alarm clock.

I had a loop of that same intro rigged up as my alarm for a while, but it was when I lived alone with no nearby neighbors. Otherwise I'd be afraid somebody would come in and shoot me.

It's a very effective alarm clock, but I had to loop it, otherwise I'd just go back to sleep listening to the song itself.

“Wheel-spinning”?

Let’s remind the folks across the pond that it’s called a burnout.

150 in a convertible 5.0 mustang was enough as well. Decided that if I wanted to go faster the vehicle would have wings and would be steered by somebody far better trained than me.

At that age you think you’re 8 foot tall and bulletproof. The first few deaths in my graduating class should’ve been enough to remind us of our mortality. Lord knows they came soon enough. But of course it took a few more before the lesson sunk in.

It's run by the Chinese Communist Party.

Designed designed to foster societal rot.

Part of their "Unrestricted War" plan to take down the US.

Along with a stolen election, funding and directing antifa / blm, biological warfare, buying our congresscritters, flooding the streets with fentanyl, aiding and abetting the invasion of illegals it's working quite well.

Yeah, I remember.

However, my brother learned his lesson in high school when a car load of his friends, who he was supposed to be with that night, had an accident and they all got killed. At the last minute, he decided to stay home and do some homework which is why he wasn’t with them.

It hit him really hard. My mom told me later that he really turned his life around after that. I didn’t notice, just being a teen myself.

What was he doing, mouthing off to the authorities like that?

Doesn't this young Afro-American realize that Black people are allegedly afraid of the (racist) Police?

Keep the car as evidence in their impoundment lot, esp. during hurricane season. Then charge him for impoundment fees. LUV IT!

I drove just a teeny tiny tad below 150 in my old Supra a few times going down RT 3 in MA late night back around 1990 or so.
That was some scary stuff.
Just one twitch of the wheel....

Sink holes or any deep holes with water in the in Florida. It’s not just the gator either. There’s snappin’ turtles, water moccasins, rattlesnakes, and now pythons. Just try some of ghose salt marsh mosquitoes for some fun.
Uf youre goin to go nessin around in the woods, I’d recommend a good pair of snake boots. Not some drugstore cowboy boots either. You want some double-layered shruken shoulder or mulehide.

I hate when they say “undertaking” (as opposed to overtaking).

Maybe we use that here in the states, but I’ve never heard it.
