A California Highway Patrol officer’s dashcam was rolling as an Alfa Romeo Giulia and a Chrysler 300 raced past his modified cruiser on the 60 Freeway in Chino earlier this week.
Video from the Specially Marked Patrol Vehicle (SMPV) shows the officer immediately speeding up to follow the two vehicles as they pass at a high rate of speed shortly before noon on Monday.
The driver of the Chrysler, a 21-year-old from Moreno Valley, was pulled over and arrested on suspicion of reckless driving and speed contest, CHP Rancho Cucamonga posted on Instagram Thursday.
“His vehicle was towed, and he now faces criminal charges. The driver of the Alfa Romero Giulia is subject to arrest at a later time,” the post reads.

SMPV cruisers are painted with alternate colors and are harder to identify by motorists, allowing officers to catch reckless drivers who are on the lookout for traditional units.
The CHP reminded drivers that they remain committed to stopping street racing and keeping highways safe. “If you choose to race, you could end up in jail, lose your car, or worse — cause a deadly tragedy,” the CHP stated.
