NEW LONDON [NH] - A Vermont man was charged with reckless driving after
the state police clocked him traveling 128 mph on Interstate 89 Saturday
night.

Muhamed Bajic, 19, of Barre, Vt., was traveling south in a 1998 Subaru
Impreza RS when he was pulled over by State Trooper Gary Ingham near New
London at 9:55 p.m. Ingham was in a marked police car in the highway
divide and clocked Bajic using radar, said Sgt. Scott Sweet, who was the
Troop D supervising officer Saturday night.

"He said he heard him coming before he saw him," Sweet said. "He said it
sounded like an airplane."

Bajic, a soon-to-be high school graduate who said he had aspirations of
becoming a police officer, said he was speeding on the straightaway
where he was pulled over, but was not going nearly as fast as 128 mph.

"I was shocked when he came up to me and said I was driving 128," Bajic
said. "I said, 'Officer, my speedometer only goes to 120. I was doing
maximum 90.'"
