I think your mistake is assuming "detained" means "arrested". It doesn't. They were detained from the time they were pulled over until the cop told them they could leave. I don't see any reason to believe Tyreke was arrested or taken to jail. He was ordered from the car, and "detained" at the scene.

.....well, if you routinely drive around 100 mph...you may be the next Jazzfanz poster we have a eulogy for! By the way, what state were you ticketed for going 100 miles per hour?......what was your fine and how many points did it cost you toward your license? Some states and judges really frown upon speeders that go over 100 mph...and throw the book at them! I certainly would be one of those judges! (I would then pull the cop aside and tell him/her "next time you stop one going over 100....break his right leg before you bring him into my court room, so he won't be so quick to push that gas pedal to the metal!)

Reckless Driving
23103. (a) A person who drives a vehicle upon a highway in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property is guilty of reckless driving.
(b) A person who drives a vehicle in an offstreet parking facility, as defined in subdivision (c) of Section 12500, in willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property is guilty of reckless driving.
(c) Persons convicted of the offense of reckless driving shall be punished by imprisonment in a county jail for not less than five days nor more than 90 days or by a fine of not less than one hundred forty-five dollars ($145) nor more than one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment, except as provided in Section 23104 or 23105.
I don't the exact details on the law but for a crime that is punishable by jail time doesn't make it seem unreasonable for someone to be detained.

From what I understand... detained usually means some sort of confinement... but you may be right.
I was just calling them the way I sees em
I bet you would be absolutely amazed by elevators. I mean they go up and down!!!
You must either be a rogue amish person hiding a laptop, or live in the parts of the South where they don't know the civil war is over yet, because you are just crucifying me and gameface for going 100+ mph. Hell there are areas of the country where the highway limit is 80-85... 100 is passing speed at that.

Detained does not mean arrested. Detained (in this case) means he was held at the scene and not free to leave until the investigation was finished
For one, I'm not weaving in and out of traffic going 100mph. I typically don't drive during rush hour and I'm usually going the opposite direction of most traffic. So when I drive "quickly" I usually have most of a five lane freeway to myself. It's pretty nice. I'd bet that if you were in the car with me and I told you I was going 100mph that you'd be surprised. It isn't at all as if I'm pushing the limits of my vehicle. I have a set of summer performance tires and a set of winter tires. My winter tires are not rated for high speeds, so I don't drive fast on those tires. My summer tires are rated for continuous speeds of 149mph. I also have after market ceramic breaks and high quality rotors. I've also been driving these same roads for about 20 years.
You may see a number like 100 and think that it is just insane. I don't know. I am very comfortable going at that speed. And if you think 65mph is a safe speed to crash at, whereas 100mph is instant death, I suggest you look into the results of accidents at 65mph. The speed limit is far from an accurate way to determine what a "safe" speed is. I tend to think that when it is hard to find a car on the road going slower than 80mph that most people feel comfortable going at least 80mph and no one is out of control.
I don't speed through neighborhoods. I also follow nearly every other traffic law obsessively. I have all my mirrors adjusted correctly. I wear my seat belt. I check my blind spot and use my signal. When I make a turn I turn into the correct corresponding lane and then signal over if need to be in a different lane. I make complete stops at stop signs. Etc. In short I'm a good driver. I've been in several accidents, never one that was my fault.
I'm actually with gameface on this point. I would describe myself as risk-averse generally and I've pushed into the 90 range multiple times all safely. Certainly if he's a good driver and is actively taking steps to make sure those speeds are safe for him I doubt there's any real harm done. Especially if these are truly empty five lane roads.

So you're admitting they like driving in your car more than driving your ****? Pretty sad.

His 12 year reign that netted almost SEVEN MILLION deaths was incredible. If only I could be as motivated as him.

Am I the only one that has a problem with the beeps who drive fast on the freeway. I hate people that weave in and out of the lanes, or when I'm driving to Vegas, fly by me going 100 or more. They might think they have control, and maybe the do. But what happens when you blow a tire or there's something on the road and you need to swerve, or someone is driving slow or doesn't see you and pull out in front of you. I hate buttholes like those. They have a law for a reason, and it's so dumb pong mongling tardnuckles don't ****ing kill other people minding their own business.
