Driver arrested after speeding 22 times in 45 days

[June 26, 2008]  PHOENIX (AP) -- A Nevada woman has been arrested after photo enforcement cameras on a Phoenix freeway captured her behind the wheel of a car speeding 22 times in a 45-day span, authorities said.

The woman, 24, was arrested by Arizona Department of Public Safety officers on suspicion of criminal speeding, reckless driving and endangerment.

During a 45-day period starting in May, DPS officials said the woman was captured by photo enforcement cameras on Loop 101 in Scottsdale 22 times, with her top speed at 92 mph.

The woman was living in Arizona temporarily when officers arrested her at her parent's north Scottsdale home last Friday, officials said.
