Deputy says speeder tried to beat curfew

BRADENTON, Fla. -- A 19-year-old man who was pulled over for driving at speeds over 100 mph told a deputy he was rushing to get home by dark because he didn't want to get into trouble for breaking his curfew.

Zachary N. Skinner was clocked going 101 mph in a 2006 Hyundai and drove even faster before Deputy Grant Steube caught up with him Sunday night, a Manatee County sheriff's report said.

When Skinner finally pulled over at about 8:20 p.m., Steube asked him why he was driving so fast.

"He stated he was supposed to be home by dark and was afraid of getting into trouble," the deputy's report said. He "stated he didn't care about anything except getting home on time."

Skinner was arrested on a charge of reckless driving, a first-degree misdemeanor. Court records show it was Skinner's fifth ticket in the past 11 months, including two for speeding and one for careless driving.

Skinner declined to comment.
