The speed limit on I-90 in Euclid is 60 mph.
The officer cited the driver for speed and reckless operation.
“At that velocity, there’s no such thing as a ‘quick mistake.’ There’s just physics… and a whole lot of paperwork,” the department added.
Euclid Police encouraged drivers to slow down.
“The goal is to get where you’re going and not to see how fast you can get there,” they stated.
