A trooper responded to I-95 north for a report of a “blue sports car” speeding near mile marker 135.
Using radar, the trooper then found a blue Dodge Neon to be traveling at 146 mph in a 70 mph zone, police said. The trooper, Lt. Bruce Scott, stopped the car and arrested the driver, Tyler Barrows, of Manchester, Maine, and summonsed him for criminal speed, failure to provide proof of insurance, and failure to provide proof of inspection.
Scott said he had never recorded someone driving at such a high rate of speed in his entire career in law enforcement, according to police.
