4. The near miss of three pedestrians;
5. The potential for catastrophic injury or death.
Besides #2, all of the reasons would be valid in pretty much any type of speeding + driving without due care (which is a subjective matter as determined by the officer) situation.

I didn't know I could get money back on something I forfeited. They should just give all the money to CHARITY.
