Plainfield gets Viper after driver busted going 127 mph
June 19, 2007 PLAINFIELD, Ill. - The Plainfield police have a speedy new car in their fleet -- thanks to a lead-footed driver who was busted going 127 miles per hour in a 35 zone.
The 2000 Viper is being used for Plainfield's Drug Abuse Resistance Education -- or DARE -- program.
Plainfield patrol officer Mario Marzetta says he heard the car's engine revving before it blew by him last year going almost 100 miles per hour over the speed limit.
The driver ended up facing a charge of felony fleeing and eluding police, and the Viper became property of the Plainfield Police Department.
For its new gig, the black sports car got a custom paint job featuring an American flag and the word "Police." It'll be used at community events, in parades and at schools. (Copyright 2007 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)
