According to New Hampshire State Police, at just before 10:30 a.m. this morning, the special enforcement unit was monitoring traffic from the air in the area of Bow and reportedly tracked a vehicle – a 2000 Lexus ES300 – “traveling at an extremely high rate of speed” on the southbound side of the Interstate. The radar clocked the vehicle going 107 mph in a 65 zone, according to a report.

A trooper on the ground stopped the Lexus and later, arrested Shaw for reckless driving. State police allege that there was an 8-month-old child in the vehicle so the child welfare charge was added to his docket.

Shaw is due in court on Jan. 8, 2016.

“The NH State Police Special Enforcement Unit regularly interdicts elevated speed violations and other aggressive driving behaviors,” according to Lt. Matthew Shapiro. “Its members patrol across the state often utilizing the State Police aircraft during commuter traffic periods and holiday travel times with the goal of keeping New Hampshire’s roadways safe for all residents and visitors.”
