Trooper Stops 19-Year-Old Driving 127 MPH

The ten fastest speeding tickets issued by Nevada Highway Patrol in 2019 were:

#1 – 155 MPH, to Aaron Snyder and his Charger
#2 – 142 MPH, to Michael Alexander and his Corvette
#3 – 134 MPH, to the off-duty cop from LA
#4 – 133 MPH, to the hairdresser on his way to Salt Lake City
#5 – 132 MPH, to someone you haven’t yet met
#6 – 129 MPH, to another someone you haven’t yet met
#7 – 129 MPH, see above
and then we have numbers eight through ten, all of which tied with 127 MPH.

So, somewhere between eight and tenth place, meet Justin Cole Jance.

If you have been watching Real World Police lately – and, come on, we both know you have – you might remember Deputy Sheriff Felipe Perez. He was the guy who thought – incorrectly, on that occasion – that his badge would excuse a 134 MPH run in his Hellcat, with his kid in the backseat. Mr. Perez had also neglected to put license plates on his car. He got the ticket.

Depending on how closely you paid attention to the Perez video, you might also be aware that the Deputy’s charge was amended downward. Significantly. What began as “Speeding 41+ MPH Over Posted Speed Limit” ended up as a parking ticket.

But there was more to the story. Our investigation found that Deputy Perez did not get special treatment in having his super-high-speed-speeding-ticket turned into a no-speed-at-all parking ticket. That’s the norm. As long as you actually show up or even phone the Justice Court, you, too, can get just about any Nevada Highway Patrol speeding ticket amended to a non-moving violation.

The catch? Only the crime changes. Your fine — which is technically a “bail forfeiture,” since moving violations in Nevada are criminal offenses — stays the same. Which is why Deputy Perez’s parking ticket cost him a cool $706, plus the time and expense of traffic school.

Jance’s 127 MPH run wasn’t half the speed, but it was a bit less than half the price… with a somewhat amusing twist shown in the video.

Note: On October 1, 2019, Nevada Assembly Bill 434 went into effect, reforming – a bit – the state’s approach to traffic violations. The new law states that for someone arrested for a violation of Nevada’s traffic laws, “…there is a presumption that the person should be released on his or her own recognizance.” This presumption doesn’t apply to arrests for reckless driving, vehicular manslaughter, DUI; or if the person willfully refuses to pay court-imposed obligations and refuses to perform community service to satisfy a court-imposed obligation; or if the court finds that releasing the person “…would substantially jeopardize public safety.”
