Politicians - Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge-Morrell
Just in a hurry to do the peoples business?...
From WWLTV.com in New Orleans:
"Hedge-Morrell issued an apology for the incident, which happened on February 26, when a state trooper clocked the councilwoman flying down I-10 at close to 100 miles per hour just before 9 a.m. Morrell was reportedly in a city-provided SUV and using the vehicle’s blue flashing lights to help cut through traffic.
State Police said when they pulled Morrell over and asked her to step out of the vehicle, she refused, and said 'Do you know who I am?' Morrell told the trooper that she was on her way to an important meeting with FEMA officials. A similar incident involving Morrell occurred in January."
