so fast and all that needs to happen is for a car you are approaching changes lanes into your path.

At 10 pm other cars are still on the road. 3:00 am when roads are just about free of traffic, maybe the cops would've given him a break.

I've done 120 mph late at night on the L.I.E. on Long Ialand years ago in a Jag sedan. You catch up to traffic real fast.
