Speeding is breaking the law. At any point, an officer can apprehend you for breaking the law by speeding.
When excessively speeding, the punishments become rise in equal porportion.
When speeding is done intentially for other illegal purposes, such as street racing, the penalties become more stringent.
When something else happens during the speeding, such a car crash during a street race, even more stringent penalties such as trying the drivers for homocide.
So you see, Casey may be right, he’s like the deluded street racer with their modified subarus racing down the street past a school, one car wrapped around a telephone pole and couple kids dead in the crosswalk.
