KANSAS (KSNT) - On Sunday, the Kansas Highway Patrol (KHP) shared a breathalyzer photo showing a blood alcohol content of .130 or .05 over the legal limit. According to the KHP, a trooper stopped a driver for speed violations of 114 mph in a 70 mph zone on US-24 Highway. The driver was found with an open container, marijuana and drug paraphernalia. As a result, the driver was arrested. Last month KHP spokeswoman Candice Breshears said in a written response to 27 News that the fastest driver ticketed so far this year was for a person traveling at 151 mph in Saline County in February. The 36-year-old man, who was driving a 2011 BMW, received a nearly $1,000 fine for the violation. The highway most prone to speeding violations is I-70 which stretches 424 miles across Kansas. Breshears did say it is not the only road in the state where KHP troopers are witnessing people travel at excessive speeds. 100 mph speeding issue rising at ‘alarming rates’ in Kansas For more Kansas news, click here.
