Three times on Wednesday a 20-year-old man put the pedal to the metal in northern Minnesota, and the result was the same each time: He was stopped by a State Trooper and given a speeding ticket.
Troopers first caught the leadfoot motorist about 1:50 p.m. near Grand Rapids going 73 mph in an area where the speed limit is 60. About 20 minutes later, a trooper caught him traveling 76 mph in zone marked at 60 mph. The third trooper clocked him going 78 mph in a 65 mph zone about 4:20 p.m. near Bemidji, the man's hometown.
