FEDERAL WAY, Wash. — A reminder from Washington State Patrol that ignoring the rules of the road can cost you.
Trooper Rick Johnson said he stopped someone going 108 miles per hour in a 60 miles per hour zone.
“Crashing at 108 MPH would be devastating. Slow down,” Trooper Johnson said.
On top of that – Trooper Johnson noted the driver had no license, no insurance, and expired tabs.
The driver was issued a $1,800 ticket for the infractions.
The driver was not arrested and allowed to pull the car off the freeway and call for a licensed driver to come pick them up.
“When possible, we try to find reasonable alternatives prior to impounding vehicles,” Trooper Johnson said.
