I wonder what kind of job this guy has to be able to afford one of these. The North Carolina State Highway Patrol has arrested a driver after a tipster sent in a Facebook video of him going 198 mph on US-1 through Wake County. The video, obtained by ABC 11, is shot from the passenger seat and shows the speedometer of a Dodge Challenger Hellcat hitting 198 mph on the two-lane stretch of highway. The 707 hp muscle car has an official top speed of 199 mph. The driver, William Jefferson, 22, is also seen in the clip saying “it’s a true Hellcat,” before it cuts to a second view that was shot from the side of the highway by cheering onlookers at high speed with a motorcycle hot on its tail. Jefferson has been charged with street racing and reckless driving and is due to appear in court on Sept. 4. ABC 11 reported that he has received previous traffic violations, but has an otherwise clean criminal record. Investigators have asked for a warrant to search Jefferson’s cell phone for additional evidence, according to The News Observer.  http://www.foxnews.com/auto/20...-facebook-video.html | ||

I don't really know, but he may be lucky if he keeps his driver's license. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Maybe he comes from money, or made it in the music/promo business, or student loans ... some of y’all are surely some racist MFs ... sure, he’s stupid for posting, but so are tens of millions of people.

I once knew a young guy, years ago, working at 3Com manufacturing plant, still living with parents and got a brand new Viper. Yeah he told me that his whole paycheck went into the Viper and insurance. | |||

Yeah. Perhaps he buys and sells yachts. | |||

Thankfully there was no crash - either him or the bike. At those speeds that would be horrific, and likely take out some innocent bystanders "Think about how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are stupider than that' George Carlin | |||

So, he would've been just fine (legally speaking) if him or his passenger hadn't posted the video. If you're gonna do something stupid, at least keep your damn mouth shut about it. | |||

If you can hit 198 on US1 without a police escort, you must be doing something right. That stretch of two lane highway is usually busy with local police and troopers, waiting for their next victim. | |||
