DES MOINES, Iowa — The Iowa State Patrol says a trooper in Polk County recently pulled a driver over going 105 miles per hour on Highway 5. Troopers say the driver was a 16-year-old. In a social media post, the Patrol said “Imagine the disbelief on CMVU (Commercial Motor Vehicle Unit) Trooper Daniels’ face as a 16-year-old driver zipped past him on Hwy 5 (Polk County)! A great reminder…If you’re out late, remember to drive carefully on your way home—your parents will appreciate knowing you made it back safely!”
