Denver (KDVR) – A motorcycle driver was caught after a periodic plane in the state of Colorado registered 142 miles per hour in a 65 miles area on the 25th Highway, according to the agency.
CSP said on Thursday, at approximately 2:45 pm, that the soldiers who were flying in a periodic plane had first identified the motorcycle driver alleging that he was “traveling at a very high rate” near MilePost 171 in the north of I-25 between Larkspur and Castle Rock.
Initially, the plane estimated that the motorcycle driver was traveling more than 100 miles per hour and later moved the motorcycle driver near Milibus 180, as it was claimed that the contestant was weaving through traffic, according to the agency.
Almost at that time, the plane used its computer and the average visual registrar, which was allegedly registered in “142 miles per hour in an area of 75 miles per hour, and as it entered the construction area of 65 miles per hour.”
CSP said that its ground forces were directed at the motorcycle driver and started a traffic station on I-25, where the alleged contestant, who was identified as Matthew Galik, 27, was arrested.
“This type of reckless driving is very dangerous not only for the contestant but for every car driver who shares the road,” Colonel Matthew C Bakard, President of Colorado State, said in a statement. “Motorcycle passengers have little protection in the event of a collision, and the speed remains one of the main causes of deadly accidents throughout Colorado. Even in regular highways speeds, one mistake can mean the tragedy of the passenger and every person around them.”
The agency said that Galik was arrested on charges of the following:
- Speeding 142 miles per hour in a 65 mph area
- Reckless
- Not to provide insurance
CSP said that Galek was seized in Douglas County Prison, as noted in the press statement a reminder to drivers, “This speed is the main factor contributing to traffic deaths” and puts “an unnecessary life.”
According to court records, Galik is scheduled to appear before the court on October 8.
