On August 7, 2015, the Sheriff’s Office received several
complaints from citizens concerning the reckless operation of a white pick-up
truck traveling along Route 238 in the northern end of St. Mary's County. One
citizen provided a video of the truck operating with total disregard for other
drivers.
Corporal Brian Connelly assigned to the Traffic Safety
Unit, investigated the complaint and observed the driver commit several
violations of Maryland Traffic Law in the video. Those violations were also
supported by other drivers who witnessed the truck operating on Route 238.
On August 20th, Corporal Connelly made contact with the
driver, identified as Nicholas Cave, age 25, of Mechanicsville, and issued him
traffic citations for Reckless Driving, Negligent Driving, and Failure to Drive
Right of Center.
Sheriff Tim Cameron and the men & women of the St.
Mary's County Sheriff's Office would like to sincerely thank the members of the
public who reported this incident.
