The officer clocked me going 95 mph, and when he handed over the ticket, I remember thinking that this would probably be the last time I ever got to drive a car for the rest of my life.

That's why, when I see stories like this one about a teen leading police on a high-speed chase, I can only imagine how much trouble they're going to be in.
