Seattle DUI Speed Racer

Why is it that people with BMWs seem to pick the time after they were drinking to see what their beemer can do?

Suspected DUI Driver May Have Been Driving As Fast As 150 MPH - Traffic News Story - KIRO Seattle: "The state patrol arrested a man on suspicion of DUI and reckless driving after he was seen driving at an extremely high rate of speed on the 520 floating bridge Saturday, a state patrol spokesman said.

Police said the 24-year-old Bellevue man in a BMW M6 was seen driving eastbound at more than 135 mph on the bridge between Seattle and Medina at about 1 a.m."
