Dublin, CA — In a tale that sounds like something out of a movie, a driver was arrested for speeding over 100 miles per hour on westbound I-580, and what the California Highway Patrol (CHP) discovered next was nothing short of shocking!

On the night of February 19, at around 9:55 p.m., a CHP officer was on the lookout for speed demons when they spotted a 2018 Honda Accord zooming past. As the officer approached, a pungent aroma of cannabis wafted through the air, hinting at an adventure that was far from ordinary. To their astonishment, the officer found multiple trash bags stuffed to the brim with cannabis right in plain sight!

A deeper inspection revealed a whopping 270 pounds of the green herb and a staggering $36,703 in cash, raising eyebrows and questions about what kind of operation was at play. Was this a simple joyride gone wrong, or something more sinister?

The driver was swiftly slapped with charges for reckless driving and possession of cannabis with intent to sell, leading to a one-way ticket to Santa Rita Jail.

This incident serves as a reminder of the thin line between thrill and danger on the roads. As our friends across the ocean navigate their own challenges, it’s a call for vigilance and community awareness.
