Need for speed gets Porsche driver arrested
By the Lincoln Journal Star
No, it's not a new land-speed record in Nebraska. A Colorado man arrested for driving his Porsche 131 mph shortly after noon Saturday on Interstate 80 near Beaver Crossing is only the most recent example of taking unlawful speed to the extreme.
Deb Collins of the Nebraska State Patrol didn't have to look any further back than March 25, 2004, to come up with an even bigger interstate blur. That's when the driver of 2004 Mercedes was arrested for driving 141 mph just east of the Kearney interchange.
In the more recent incident, 36-year-old Joseph Rozick of Denver was finally flagged down by the State Patrol after his 1997 Porsche 911 was slowed by traffic. According to the State Patrol, Rozick said he was trying to catch up with a friend who was traveling ahead of him.
His indiscretion cost him $200 plus $44 for court costs. Collins said it will be up to county authorities to decide what to do about the willful reckless driving charge that went with the speeding fine.
Can State Patrol cars go fast enough to catch somebody doing 141 — or even 131?
"I don't know that," Collins said.
In this case, "the trooper had radioed ahead to the next troop area to alert them."
