A Florida man learned the hard way that playing games with cops has consequences. Caught speeding at 110 mph on Interstate 4, this reckless driver tried lying to deputies – claiming he was “only” doing 80. The officer shut him down fast: “You’re gonna play games with people’s lives? You go to jail today.”
This isn’t just one bad apple. Volusia County streets have become racetracks for lawbreakers. Last year, three teen carjackers led deputies on a 113 mph chase through two counties after stealing a grandmother’s car at gunpoint. They had a semi-automatic weapon in the vehicle – proof these aren’t just joyrides.
The problem keeps getting worse. Just last week, another suspect hit 135 mph trying to outrun troopers. These aren’t accidents waiting to happen – they’re assaults on public safety. Every time some hotshot floors it, families driving to church or work become potential crash victims.
Deputies are fighting back hard. They’re using stop sticks and PIT maneuvers to take these danger drivers off the road. When a rented BMW driver tried fleeing at 113 mph recently, officers disabled his tires and found enough drugs to stock a pharmacy – plus a hidden handgun.
Here’s the brutal truth: These criminals don’t care about rules. The BMW driver was a convicted felon packing 165 rounds of ammo. The carjackers got sent home to mommy after terrorizing citizens. Soft treatment just emboldens them to try again.
Innocent Americans pay the price. Parents white-knuckle steering wheels while maniacs treat highways like video games. Business owners watch drug traffickers turn their neighborhoods into war zones. It’s time to stop coddling criminals and start protecting taxpayers.
Sheriff’s deputies are the last line of defense. They’re out there every night putting their lives on the line against armed suspects and drug-fueled speed demons. When a deputy makes an arrest like this 110 mph case, he’s saving lives – even if the suspect screams about it.
This is what law and order looks like. No excuses for endangering hardworking families. No “understanding” for thugs who treat public roads like their personal crime scenes. Lock them up – and keep them there before their next high-speed rampage gets someone killed.
