22CT-**** – Racing on Highway

In an Orange County Racing case, a deputy observed a blue Mustang pull next to an orange Camaro at a red light. The Mustang honked its horn, and the Camaro rolled its windows down. The deputy observed them have a brief conversation and once the traffic light turned green, they screeched their tires and did a slight burn out and took off at a high rate of speed side by side. The deputy turned on his lights and alleged that he reached 100 mph in an attempt to catch up to them.  The Mustang kept going and the driver of the Camaro stopped.  He was charged with Racing. We closed his case to a careless driving, a driving school, no suspension and no points on his license.
