Driver Hits 140 mph Then Blames Gas Pedal in Dangerous Police Chase

 

 
 Fayetteville, Arkansas — On June 12, 2025, around 12:32 a.m., a trooper spotted a black Cadillac sedan with a defective tag light near mile marker 68 on I-49 southbound. The driver, later identified as 31-year-old Michael Dorsey, accelerated to over 140 mph in an apparent attempt to escape. Over the course of nearly 15 miles, Dorsey weaved through traffic, made abrupt U-turns, and even drove the wrong way on a divided road, forcing law enforcement to engage in two Tactical Vehicle Intervention (TVI) maneuvers and deploy spike strips before finally bringing the vehicle to a halt near Exit 73. Authorities say Dorsey, who claimed his gas pedal was stuck, was evaluated at a local hospital and found to have no serious injuries. A female passenger was unharmed. Investigators later discovered that the Cadillac had been reported as used without authorization. Dorsey now faces a series of felony and misdemeanor charges, including fleeing, unauthorized use of property, and reckless driving. He remains in the Washington County Jail on a $75,000 bond while awaiting his court appearance.
