Speeding driver tells State Patrol he was rushing to bid on eBay

Just after 9 p.m., a State Patrol trooper patrolling Interstate 90 saw a speeding 2004 Volkswagen R32 passing other vehicles in the express lane in the Mount Baker Tunnel. As the Volkswagen came out of the tunnel, the trooper clocked it going 110 mph as it continued across the floating bridge. With the trooper behind him, the driver eventually pulled over on Mercer Island.

The driver, who was identified as Garrett, told the trooper he had to get home to Fall City because he was late bidding on a coveted item and eBay was about to close the auction, said Trooper Dan McDonald, a spokesman for the State Patrol in Bellevue.

You know how this is gonna end, don't you?

According to McDonald, Garrett "didn't say what he was bidding on but the trooper said his car was filled with Star Wars stuff."

Garett's car was impounded — with all his Star Wars collectibles inside — and Garrett was booked into the King County Jail on suspicion of reckless driving.

Oddly enough, no.

haha, if he was that desperate, he should have got a friend to bid for him or done it through his phone?

Wow... I wonder what was in his car! Or what he was bidding on!

I went to college with a guy named Garrett who lived on Bainbridge Island. He was more into anime at the time than Star Wars, but I wonder...
