BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – A 30-year-old man is accused of driving more than 100 mph with a suspended license in Brevard County, according to a news release.

According to a social media post by Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey, Ryan Samayoa was arrested on Saturday after being clocked driving 106 mph in a 45 mph zone along Eau Gallie Causeway.

“The new law that went into effect July 1st, (HB 351 Dangerous Excessive Speeding) comes with a potential for jail time, or a fine, and affects persons driving 50 mph or more over the posted speed limit, or anyone driving 100+mph that threatens the safety of other persons or property, or interferes with any vehicle!!,” Ivey said in his post.

Under that new law, also known as the “Super Speeder,” a new criminal offense was established under a state statute labeled “dangerous excessive speeding.”

Speeding itself is generally considered a noncriminal traffic infraction, punished primarily with fines, but HB 351 makes it so that excessive speeding is an arrestable offense. This is in addition to any applicable fines for speeding.

“There’s absolutely no excuse for driving at these speeds, as we all know it doesn’t end well for anyone. I hope this new law makes people think twice before driving at these ridiculous speeds!!,” Ivey said.

Under the law, someone who commits “dangerous excessive speeding” can be punished by up to 30 days in jail and a fine of $500 for a first offense.

A second offense could result in up to 90 days in jail and a fine of $1,000.

Additionally, a repeat offense within five years, could result in revocation of that person’s driver’s license for up to a year.

Samayoa was booked into Brevard County jail on $500 bond and faces charges of driving in excess of the speed limit by 50 mph or more, according to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office.
