Both individuals have been charged with stunt driving. Their licenses have also been suspended for 30 days, and their vehicles have been impounded for 14 days.
Officers remind those getting behind the wheel that excessive speed reduces your ability to react, increases stopping distance, and dramatically increases the risk of serious or fatal collisions.
