Drivers arrested for speeding at 141 mph  

[June 28, 2007]  EVERETT, Wash. (AP) -- The Washington State Patrol says a trooper arrested two men speeding 141 mph on Interstate 5 in Snohomish County. The patrol says the trooper thought he was hearing an airplane early Sunday as the cars whizzed by going north, a 2005 BMW 330i with a 2007 Honda Accord right behind.

The trooper caught up with the cars because they had stopped for a passenger from one of the cars to get into the other.

The 22-year-old driver of the BMW and the 18-year-old driver of the Honda were booked into the Snohomish County Jail for charges of reckless driving.
