Motorcyclist arrested for reckless driving

 

A 21-year-old Little Torch Key man was arrested Monday night for traveling 105 mph on a sport motorcycle on U.S. 1.

 

Elijah Hope was charged with reckless driving. He was also cited for speeding.

 

Middle Keys Deputy Corbin Hradecky was on patrol in Marathon when he spotted a southbound motorcycle that appeared to be speeding on the 4600 block of the highway. His radar clocked the motorcycle at 105 mph in a 45 mph zone. Deputy Hradecky aired a be-on-the-lookout for the motorcycle. Deputy Jorge Moreno stopped the motorcycle shortly thereafter.

 

Records checks showed Hope has multiple previous traffic offenses to include unlawful racing and reckless driving.

 

Hope was taken to jail.
