Going 58 mph over the speed limit will get you an instant audience with someone in uniform and on Friday Evening just after 6:30 p.m., it did just that when the Stanton County Sheriff’s office stopped a speeding car on Northeast Industrial Highway near Nucor Steel and the vehicle was travelling at 113 mph in the 55 mph zone. People need to remember that at those high speeds your reaction time is almost non-existent. Not only putting your life in danger, but those of innocent people just driving down the roadway. Remember “SPEED KILLS” and you don’t get second chances in the game of life. This is the third citation to be given by the Sheriff’s office in the past three weeks for speed over 100 mph.
