Yep, we should put him in solitary for speeding through a construction zone on a highway at 3am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speeding through a construction zone on a highway is comparable to murder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you selfishly and carelessly put other's lives in danger that seems like a good punishment to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speeding through a construction zone on a highway is comparable to murder. I agree that it isn't a huge deal. But I also think you're brushing it under the rug a little too much. But when you just call this "speeding" it kinda feels like saying "poked" when you see someone get shanked about 13 times in a cafeteria brawl. lol. He was going almost 50mph over the speed limit. Also, we can't just assume there was nobody out and he wasn't putting anyone in danger besides himself. He passed a police car that was driving on the highway, he obviously wasn't slowing down when he saw other vehicles and was only gunning it when nobody was around.

I am absolutely brushing it under the rug a little bit, because in the grand scheme of things, people wanting this dude locked up for egregiously speeding are vastly overreacting. Literally the act of driving is putting other people's lives in danger. In the big picture of things, this isn't a big deal. Give him a fine or whatever, but jail time? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezla Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The state should suspend his license for 2 or 3 months and make him attend a ham program. The league/team shouldn't do squat especially if the ticket wasn't written up as a felony offense like a dui. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the license suspended for a year, but that's semantics. What he did was highly dangerous, but I agree that I don't believe it needs to be a significant punishment. Hefty fine, loss of license, classes is more than sufficient to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had like 2 points on his record already, then a year suspension makes sense. What he did was no less dangerous than drunk driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why i suggest a minor jail sentence as drubk drivers (at least where im from) get a jail time for drunk driving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speeding isn't, depending how the citation was written up. It should have been wreckles driving, but maybe the cop just gave him a standard speeding ticket that he can go to traffic school for.
