Driver begs for second chance in shameful meltdown when caught going 116mph

SHE told the officer he didn't "have to be so mean" in the shocking footage

A WOMAN allegedly driving 116 miles per hour begged to be let go after she was put under arrest for "super speeding," police footage shows.

Florida has enacted a new law to crack down on the most egregious speeding violations - including the crying driver who was driving close to double the speed limit, according to police.

"I was going 116 and he won't give me a chance," cried Kiara Molina Rucci as she was cuffed in a cop car.

The police car camera showed Rucci rocking back and forth, crying, yelling, and attempting to bargain with the cop after she was arrested.

"I got a legit call that my son got bit in the face by a pitbull," she told the trooper.

Drivers exceeding the speed by 50 miles per hour or over, alongside those who are driving 100 miles per hour or more recklessly, could carry a $500 fine, 30 days in jail, or both.

If speeders are caught multiple times, offenders could face up to 90 days in jail, face a fine of $1,000, or both.

A driver's license could also be revoked.

Migdalisis Garcia, an officer with the Florida Highway Patrol, said that they did not expect so many people to get charged with the super speeder law in its first month.

The trooper said that 49 people faced charges after going at or over 100 miles per hour, and another 22 people were charged going 50 miles per hour over the speed limit in July, according to WFTV.

"When crashes happen at these speeds, it's not survivable."

Another driver to be arrested for speeding in July was Miguel Arturo Peña.

The man was allegedly driving 113 miles per hour in a 60 miles per hour zone.

For 2025, 1,249 people in Florida have died from car accidents so far.
