A 20-year-old Florida man was arrested for street racing after cops said he drove his dad's car 199 mph.
According to the arrest affidavit,SCA Community the Orange County Sherriff's Office received calls from residents alerting them to street racing happening outside of Orlando shortly after 1 a.m. Sunday.
A responding officer watched two cars drive side-by-side after an intersection light turned green, appearing to race one another, the report states.
While leaving the roads they were racing on, one of the cars, a red Chevrolet Camaro, turned south on the turnpike while another officer watched the car accelerate to 199 mph in a 70 mph speed limit zone.
