Reckless Driving Charges

[DataGeek19]

Reckless Driving Charges filed based on social media video... this will be an interesting case to watch.

From what I gather, this guy is a mechanic. Well, I guess he owns his shop:

And he can afford this car?

What ever happened to auto mechanics just buying boats?

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Just saw this on WTHR.

This is not specific legal advice to anyone, but if I were going to post a video of me doing illegal stuff, the video certainly wouldn't allow the date, time and location to be identified.

I also saw that on WTHR and am amazed that someone can be arrested on hearsay evidence. Granted the guy posted a picture, but unless there are specific landmarks visible, this seems like the state police embarrassed by the fact they missed someone breaking the speed limit on 465. (Like the other 99% of the people they missed).

 

[tetter]

Im impressed. I tried to find the video he posted. Did anyone see it?

They did additional investigation beyond the video...but they have the highway and mile-marker in it. Good enough to establish location, at least good enough for probable cause.

Tried. Best a couple find was a douchy promo.

I wonder how many custom welding jobs it's going to take to stay out of jail?

213mph on 465? They must have stopped him for blocking the fast lane.

Thanks! I hadn't seen the video.

Did the said video show any thing would be able to identify the driver?

You can't arrest a car, right?

If it's like any of his other postings, the suspect's ego guarantees it's identifiable.

 

[Hoosierdood]

I will never understand this generation's fascination with documenting their stupid and illegal actions and posting them online.


Of course, I'll watch them.

Not sure about him, but lot of these guys use daddy's money, just like the Indycar drivers.

If you post video of yourself doing illegal things, you may get charged. Ask the Capitol rioters.

Indy rioters would disagree.

Most racers now days use daddy’s money. It isn’t the same sport it used to be, sadly.

Depends which group they’re with.
