Anti-social Hoon is banned from driving after terrorizing the city
A 20-year-old from Seattle has been banned from driving his obnoxiously loud muscle car – but not all cars – after terrorizing local neighborhoods with his late-night antics .
NBC's King 5 News reports Miles Hudson has long been known to city residents for driving his Dodge Charger Hellcat Jailbreak Edition – which has a modified exhaust without a muffler – around the area in the early morning hours.
These actions drew the ire of Seattle residents, who recorded his actions on Reddit. They claim that the car is deafening, making it impossible for them to sleep late at night.
Mr. Hudson, who has the username srt.miles on Instagram, was charged with two counts of reckless driving last week, which came after he posted a video to the social media platform in which he road-raced another Charger, reaching speeds of up to 172km/h (107mph).
Mr. Hudson pleaded not guilty to two charges, however the Seattle Municipal Court banned him from driving the Charger Hellcat for 12 months. However, the 20-year-old man can still continue to drive other vehicles.
The 20-year-old is said to have been stopped and spoken to by police multiple times this year, at one point telling police that the videos he took cost him his car.
“[I plan to] keep doing what I'm doing. I will make a career out of this,” he told Seattle police officers.
