In Sag Harbor on Friday, village police clocked a blue 2007 Honda Civic headed south down Main Street at 39 miles per hour, almost twice the posted 20-mile-an-hour limit.

They caught up with the driver, Miguel A. Peua, at a traffic light, and eventually charged him with aggravated unlicensed operation. A computer check revealed that his driving privileges in New York State had been suspended no fewer than 14 times on 7 different dates.

He will appear in Sag Harbor Justice Court to answer the charge on Friday.

The young man subsequently told police he was waiting for his friends to get out of school, and said he was wearing a mask “because it’s cold outside today.”
