Tyreek Hill arrested for traffic violation by stadium in Miami on gameday (Hill played) [Reckless driving & seatbelt charges dismissed]

But in the video, the cop had to pick up speed and pass up all of the other cars that passed him, along with Tyreek. Tyreek was well ahead of the other cars. So, to me, Tyreek was obviously speeding to a good degree. Not saying upwards to 100/90/80 etc, but he was moving. It doesn’t take much for those sports cars to fly. Thats why they are engineered that way.

Of course. I've driven a few myself. You definitely can get up to those speeds in seconds, no question. I'm just saying it depends on prevailing traffic speeds, the posted limits and the gap above those prevailing speeds. Speed variance is what kills more than absolute speeds in local traffic.

I'll also add that as fast as those cars are, their braking is pretty incredible and will slow the car to a stop really quickly. They also handle really well unless you push them to the limit and depending on the car's safety features, it could be really stable, or it could be very difficult to control without a lot of experience.

It's situational and unless it's something really stupid and/or reckless, there are traffic speed cameras that will suffice.

This whole situation was entirely avoidable, first by Hill not speeding, and second by the cops being professionals when interacting with him.
