A Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat driver nicknamed 'Belltown Hellcat' has been ordered to pay penalties after driving dangerously — and loudly — through Seattle.
It is a dubious achievement at best: being acknowledged by a few on social media as a kind of cult celebrity for flaunting most of his neighborhood's lawful conventions.
Noise in this case is the charge that hangs on Hudson, but residents of the upscale Belltown neighborhood are anxious about Hudson’s public display of his need for speed, and his apparent disregard for the lethal possibilities that can result from that. Earlier this year he posted a video showing his speedometer topping 100 miles per hour during a downtown outing.
Those living in high-rise condos in Belltown said they could actually feel the windows vibrate when he cruised the street."I'm on the 17th floor here. I would hear my windows rattle. It sounded like very loud backfiring,” Belltown resident Chris Allen told station King 5.
