A Florida man has been charged with vehicular homicide after police said he crashed into another car while driving 156 mph.

James Case, 20, was driving  his Audi S5 after midnight on Jan. 25 with three other passengers, according to an arrest warrant filed in Broward County. The document stated that while Case was driving, one of his passengers told him to slow down, to which Case reportedly responded, “I am James, I know what I am doing.”

Another passenger had posted a video from inside the car to social media that featured a view of the dashboard displaying Case’s extreme speed — 156 mph in a 45 mph zone. The passenger who posted that video was killed when Case’s vehicle crashed into a Honda Accord.
