Massachusetts driver caught speeding 134 mph: Police

A 32-year-old Bay State man was recently caught speeding 134 mph in New Hampshire, according to police.

Webster man Robert Low, 32, was arrested on a charge of reckless driving after allegedly speeding in the Granite State.

He was among 23 drivers who were stopped for excessive speeding during a traffic enforcement initiative conducted by the New Hampshire State Police last weekend.

Troopers were conducting the initiative on I-93 north in Bow. Over three hours, troopers in the State Police aircraft spotted 34 motor vehicle violations.

Of these violations, 20 drivers were seen traveling 90 mph or faster, and three drivers were clocked driving recklessly at 100 mph or faster.

At 7:15 a.m., State Police dispatch received a 911 call reporting several sports cars traveling north on I-293 at a high rate of speed. Shortly after the 911 call, a trooper in the State Police aircraft saw the cars traveling through the Hooksett tolls.

As the cars approached the rest area, one of them sped up rapidly, passing several other vehicles.

“The Trooper in the aircraft observed the car, a white 2016 BMW, driving at 134 mph,” State Police wrote.

The trooper continued to spot the BMW, relaying its location to troopers on the ground.

Trooper Derek Myrdek spotted the BMW, and conducted a traffic stop. The driver was arrested and identified as Low.
