A social media influencer in Connecticut who filmed himself driving at a whopping 137-miles per hour got busted after he shared footage of the stunt online.
Giovanni Petruzziello who owns a high-end car repair shop in North Haven, filmed himself driving his Porche zipping through a 25 mph zone at the breathtaking speed.
Petruzziello, 27, then shared the footage with his 250,000-plus Instagram followers.
Connecticut State Police allege Petruzziello reached speeds up to five times the posted limits on residential streets in the towns of Durham, Haddam, and Killingworth, reported the Daily Voice.
Petruzziello also allegedly filmed himself driving a Ferrari at 88 mph in a neighborhood with a 30 mph speed limit, the site reported.

Another video shows him allegedly driving a Lamborghini at 112 mph on Route 79 in Durham, which has a posted speed limit of 45 mph.
Petruzziello also allegedly blew through stop signs and nearly hit other vehicles, the videos showed.
He was arrested during a May 19 traffic stop, and posted $150,000 bond for his release.
