There are plenty of roads and cars in this country that are safe at 125. I would have expected him to receive a citation for reckless driving, but telling him he should go to jail while knowing little about the context is pretty dumb.

The daytime speedlimit on the Interstates in Texas is 70, it's 55 at night. He said it was at night, so that puts him at 70 over the limit.

If going more than twice the speed limit on the interstate is not a jailable offense then I don't know what is on the road. It's beyond reckless regardless of the situation. You'd go to jail in any state I've ever lived for that speed.

I'm not saying he 'deserved' to go to jail, or trying to be all high and mighty. I'm suprised he didn't get put in the back of troopers car, honestly.
