‘Preeeeeviously….. she got caught absolutely flooring it, pied off the speed limit completely, and got pulled right over by police. Talk about an awkward chat…
Tonight… on Love Island Arizona, one major superfan takes “bumping up the gears” a bit too literally(Image: ITV)
One Love Island megafan has found herself in hot water with police, with officers pulling her for a chat along the roadside when she was caught mugging off the law. The boys in blue decided she’d gone a bit too far, too soon. And do, the car has officially been dumped from the highway and sent straight to car jail. The Love Island superfan found herself in trouble with the law after police clocked her travelling at 100mph as she tried to race home to catch the latest episode of the fan-favourite reality show. Highway patrol troopers in Arizona in the US were left stunned when they heard the reason the unidentified woman was going 108 mph in a 65 mph zone.
She was apprehended on a state highway in Pinal County on June 9, Highway Patrol confirmed. The bizarre reason for her race home was shared by the Arizona Department of Safety Highway Patrol, with her arrest included in its “Speeding Saturday” roundup on social media at the weekend. The Facebook post read: “The driver stated she was trying to get home fast to be able to watch the reality TV show Love Island.”
It would seem she likely missed the episode, with the social media post revealing she was arrested and booked for criminal speed and reckless driving. State troopers also sent her vehicle was sent to “car jail” for 20 days.
But that wasn’t the only curveball in the same Saturday speeding round-up. Another unidentified driver was also caught in a race of his own, with the speeding motorist pulled over on his way to church. An Arizona state trooper caught the driver on the Maricopa Casa Grande Highway – going 93 mph in a 50 mph zone last Wednesday as he raced to get to a sermon on time. The addition to the social media roundup states: “The driver stated he was on his way from church and had known nothing about criminal speed.”
He was arrested and booked for criminal speed and reckless driving and his car was given to the front seat passenger.
