SOUTH JORDAN — A police officer who said he had to double check to make sure an airplane wasn't approaching him, discovered that it was actually a driver excessively speeding down the Mountain View Corridor.
Early Tuesday, a South Jordan police officer was at 10600 South on the Mountain View Corridor when a pair of headlights approached from behind him.
"As I looked from my rearview mirror to my vehicle-mounted radar, I observed this single vehicle in the roadway traveling at 136 mph in a posted 55 mph zone. After confirming this speed was not an airplane or object in the air by looking into my driver mirror, I noticed the headlights approaching me. I then looked back at my radar in attempts to lock the speed where it was now displaying 142 mph," a police booking affidavit states.
The officer pulled over the Kia vehicle and the driver "immediately apologized" for speeding, the affidavit says.
The 20-year-old man was arrested and booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for investigation of exhibition driving on the highway and going over 100 mph.

No. It goes through residential and industrial park areas.

It is America. You're thinking of Germany.

Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, do you believe a Kia is capable of doing 142??
Posted on 12/31/24 at 12:19 pm to Lonnie Utah
Getting a Kia over 140 and not wrecking is kind of impressive
