Black suspect tries to kill officer during criminal traffic stop (reckless driving).. Suspect gets killed by officer defending himself from threat of death or threat of serious injury..

At worst -- if he had complied -- he would be arrested fined and jailed for a period of time.. least.. given a ticked and fined..

Yes, you would likely be arrested for going 100 mph in Georgia
, as it can be considered a misdemeanor or reckless driving. This can lead to a $1,000 fine, up to a year in jail, and a mandatory $200 "super speeder" fee. The offense could also be charged as reckless driving, which has similar penalties including fines, probation, or jail time.

License suspension: If you are convicted and fail to pay the "super speeder" fee within 90-120 days, your license will be suspended.

Most likely he would have been either given a ticket had he complied and have to go to court or be arrested but likely released for court and then fined.. He didn't have to die over this but chose to escalate it to the worst outcome.
