Brevard County, FL – A driver was arrested this week after allegedly reaching speeds of 108 mph on Interstate 95 in violation of Florida’s new “Super Speeder” law, according to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputy McLaughlin of the agency’s Traffic Enforcement Unit reported that while patrolling I-95, he observed a vehicle passing traffic at a “high rate of speed.” His radar confirmed the vehicle was traveling at 97 mph before it accelerated further as he gave chase.
By the time the deputy caught up, the driver—identified by authorities as Marwan Frouh—was allegedly driving 108 mph while continuing to pass other cars. Frouh eventually pulled over and was placed under arrest.
According to Sheriff Wayne Ivey, Frouh told deputies he was on his way to Miami to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday. Instead, he was taken to the Brevard County Jail’s Iron Bar Lodge, the sheriff’s office said.
Frouh was charged with reckless driving and cited under the state’s new “Super Speeder” law, which targets drivers traveling 50 mph or more over the posted limit. He also reportedly held an out-of-state driver’s license that was suspended.
Sheriff Ivey reminded motorists to obey speed limits, saying, “Folks, we shouldn’t have to tell everyone to drive safe and follow the laws, but clearly some people need the reminder.”
