SEDGWICK COUNTY —Law enforcement across Kansas continue to see drivers traveling well above the posted speed limit.

On Sunday morning, a driver in a big hurry to make it to church was caught doing 112mph in a 60mph zone on Kellogg near Greenwich, according to a social media report from the Sedgwick County Sheriff.

On Saturday night, the Kansas Highway Patrol stopped a driver in Southwestern Kansas for traveling 109mph in a posted 65mhp zone. The individual was found to have a Breath Alcohol Concentration (BrAC) of a .169 on the Intoxilyzer 9000. That is more than twice the legal limit.

"Driving at that speed, while impaired, puts countless lives at risk. Please slow down and drive sober. Lives depend on it."
