Seattle city attorney seeks $83K in penalties against infamous 'Belltown Hellcat' driver |
![]() |
The Seattle City Attorney's Office filed a motion alleging Miles Hudson, the so-called "Belltown Hellcat" driver accused of racing his Dodge Charger through city streets and waking people up with his loud exhaust, has failed to respond to the city's lawsuit and is subject to $83,200 in penalties.
Hudson has been ordered by a court not to drive the Charger and the city issued him a notice of violation for the excessive noise with an order to remove the car's illegal exhaust system, according to prosecutors. The city attorney's office alleges Hudson continues to "flaunt" his Charger's excessive noise on his Instagram account. Videos obtained by the city attorney's office allegedly show Hudson in his car last week as the exhaust revs outside an apartment building in the University District. A male's voice in the video can be heard screaming 'wake up b----' as someone is revving the car's engine. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the lead story: https://komonews.com/news/local/belltown-hellcat-seattle-driver-instagram-dodge-charger-noise-complaints-lawsuit-loud-exhaust-court-order-charges-illegal-modifications _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KOMONews/ KOMO News on Twitter: https://twitter.com/komonews KOMO News on Instagram: http://instagram.com/komo4 KOMO News on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@komo4seattle Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC__2_0RJ8XnHt2angfw6S1Q/?sub_confirmation=1 Watch more top local news stories: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G97AyNO_3IE&list=PLZm7uq7_dyY6qhFFIwgXRvYpkaOnZEabc&index=2&t=0s For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-news-mobile/id433508161?mt=8 Download our Android App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.newssynergy.komo&hl=en Have a news tip?
