Here's an real image booster for truckers
HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) — A Florida tractor-trailer driver is free on bond after police say they caught him driving his rig 102 miles an hour while high on crack.
39-year-old Marlin Forest, of Tampa, had a bond review hearing this afternoon in Hagerstown after spending last night in jail.
The judge ordered bail to remain at $200,000, but Forest was released later in the day after posting bond.
State police say they stopped his rig on Interstate 70 at about 5:30 Sunday morning near Maryland Route 66, a few miles east of Hagerstown.
Forest is charged with possessing a controlled dangerous substance and drug paraphernalia.

WOW!! 102 mph in a truck! thats pretty damn scary not to mention he was high. I wonder when he driving if it looked like Star Wars when Han Solo jumped to light speed. All kidding aside, I'm glad they were able to pull this guy over safely before he ended up killing someone because of his stupidity. I wonder how he was able to come up with the $200,000 bond thats some serious money.

I was wondering about the money too. Maybe he deals drugs too. Glad they locked him up, but not happy he's out already!

I have driven faster, but not in a very long time, and not on crack.

And definitely not in the Eastern portion of the United States.

Usually, you're only required to post 10%. Granted, that's still 20k, but that's easier to come up with than 200k.
