ON 022514, I WAS TRAVELING NORTHBOUND ON HIGHWAY 19 JUST SOUTH OF the BARGE CANAL BRIDGE AND OBSERVED A LIGHT BLUE VOLKSWAGEN 4-DOOR TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND IN THE LEFT LANE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I ACTIVATED MY RADAR WHICH INDICATED A RATING OF 72 MILES PER HOUR. AS THERE WAS NO OTHER TRAFFIC, I TURNED AROUND AND AS I WAS CATCHING UP, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING DOWN. I ACTIVATED my OVERHEAD LIGHTS AND THE VEHICLE PULLED OVER INTO THE MEDIAN. I APPROACHED THE VEHICLE ON THE DRIVERâS SIDE AND MADE CONTACT WITH the DRIVER/SUSPECT, MR SHONTAY SMIKLE, AND ASKED HIM WHY HE WAS DRIVING SO FAST, TO WHICH HE HAD NO EXCUSE. I ASKED HIM FOR HIS FLORIDA DRIVER'S LICENSE, TO WHICH HE STATED THAT HE DID NOT HAVE ONE. I THEN ASKED HIM FOR THE INSURANCE AND REGISTRATION FOR the VEHICLE which HE PROVIDED. I RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND RAN THE DRIVERâS INFORMATION THROUGH FCIC/NCIC BY HIS DATE OF BIRTH.
