Contrary to the stereotype of the mellow cannabis user, an Arkansas State Police dashcam clip tells a different story, showing a man caught with marijuana who then fled and was pitted at 120 mph. The high-speed end came swiftly.

Running from a relatively minor situation turned it into a far more serious one for the nervous suspect. The footage is another example of how fleeing police almost always compounds a person’s troubles rather than helping them escape.
