Key Takeaways

  • FHP used their own Mustang GT to catch up with and pull the speeding car over.
  • Cirilo Rayo-Callejas faces charges of reckless driving under Florida’s Super Speeder law for exceeding 100 mph.

The FHP trooper initially clocked the teen’s speed at around 95 miles per hour. But when they tried to pull him over, he sped up dramatically and reached speeds as high as 154 mph on Interstate 4 in Hillsborough County.

Fortunately for everyone involved, the Florida Highway Patrol had a Mustang GT of their own which allowed them to catch up with the speeding car. When the teen saw the flashing lights and heard the siren, he pulled over without incident.
