Speeder Posts Self-Incriminating Video on YouTube | Manassas Reckless Driving Attorney
Adrian Hill, an employee of the exotic car dealership St. Louis Motorsports, is facing charges of careless and imprudent driving for speeding up to 150 mph while test driving a Lamborghini which just happened to be his employer’s high performance sports car. You may be asking why this story is so unusual? Well, Adrian Hill broke the cardinal rule of social media – do not post videos of yourself on YouTube or any other social site such as Facebook or MySpace while engaging in illegal behavior.
Instead of waiting on the side of the road to clock this speeder, Chesterfield Police discovered a video posted on YouTube that the passenger filmed while the car was speeding down the slow lane on Highway 40. Chesterfield Police quickly responded to the video on YouTube and arrested the driver for his alleged display of reckless driving during this high speed test drive.
Jim Mills, owner of St. Louis Motorsports, was aware that his employees were filming the vehicles as a matter of promotional material but was not aware that this employee was speeding in one of their vehicles which is a behavior that is not tolerated.
