Don’t do this…


Owning a performance vehicle which can go really fast sure is exciting, but you need to keep the speed at least close to the legal limit. Not everyone got the memo because for whatever reason we keep seeing stories of guys going over double the posted speed limit on different highway stretches. This time it was a C8 Corvette hitting 161 mph in a 70 mph zone. It didn’t end well for the driver.

According to the New Hampshire State Police, on July 31 at about 11:15 a trooper clocked the suspect, Alejandro Zapata-Rebello, going so fast on northbound I-93 in Ashland that a pursuit apparently wasn’t on the menu. After he called the vehicle in, a Be On The Lookout (BOLO) was announced to all local law enforcement.

That’s the thing, even if you do ditch the cops by going way faster than they can or are willing to go, that doesn’t necessarily mean you got away with breaking the law. Just a few minutes later, dispatch fielded several calls of sports cars on the interstate driving recklessly and speeding, nearly causing a few crashes.
