A Florida biker’s YouTube channel, which featured a video of a superbike weaving through traffic at more than 150 mph, has been taken down after he expressed concerns about the state’s Super Speeder law and the possibility of arrest.
The law, officially called the Dangerous Excessive Speeding law, came into effect on July 1, 2025, and states that law enforcement officers can immediately arrest motorists suspected of driving 50 mph or above the designated speed limit, or driving over 100 mph in a way that threatens life and property.
Motorists convicted under the law can face jail time of up to 30 days and a fine of $500 if the offense is committed for the first time. That could have serious implications for someone whose YouTube channel contains multiple videos showing speeds well into the triple digits.
The rider in question, whose videos were highlighted by the media, has since deleted his channel. But will that ensure he remains free from trouble?
The Biker is the Ex-NASCAR CEO’s Grandson
News 6 reported that the Florida biker in question is Dallas Ashley, the grandson of NASCAR’s former CEO Jim France, and the great-grandson of NASCAR founder Bill France Sr. However, he claimed to be estranged from his relatives.
Ashley owned and managed a channel called Speed Demon 407, but after the Super Speeder law came into effect last year, he stopped posting new videos and even made the existing ones private.
The report, which reviewed the videos before they disappeared from the channel, said they showed motorcycles running red lights, splitting lanes, popping wheelies, and exceeding 150 mph on Interstate 4, Florida’s Turnpike, the 417 Expressway, Semoran Boulevard, and other Central Florida roads.
The footage was recorded in a way that clearly showed the motorcycle’s speedometer. In one such video on Ashley’s channel, titled ‘Orlando to Daytona in 20 mins,’ a motorcycle’s speedometer displayed a speed of up to 154 mph on what appeared to be I-4, where the speed limit is 70 mph.
The rider’s face was blurred or covered by the helmet, so it was difficult to confirm who the rider was. When Ashley was asked about the rider’s identity last year, he told News 6:
“You can’t prove who was riding. You can’t trust anything you see on the internet.”
Florida Highway Patrol Investigated Ashley’s YouTube Channel
Following the media attention, the FHP assigned an investigator to Ashley’s YouTube channel, but no criminal charges or citations were handed out.
According to the investigator, there was no way to ascertain the identity of the motorcycle rider. News 6 confirmed after searching public records that there was no indication the FHP sought search warrants.
More than 120 videos on Ashley’s “Speed Demon 407” channel were deleted or set to private after he was contacted by the media outlet. YouTube also took down additional videos as it found that they violated its community guidelines.
On June 15, 2026, Ashley posted a video titled ‘My Last Moto Vlog’ and revealed that this was indeed his last video on his channel. He said in the video:
“I feel like this is going to be the last video on the channel. I just don’t have the same passion ever since the ‘Super Speeder’ law. I feel paranoid.”
“It’s just a matter of time before my ass gets taken to f***ing jail,” he added.
In his last message to his viewers, he said:
“I want to thank all of you guys for all the support that you gave me, besides FHP and Channel 6 News. My life would have been a lot better had y’all two never gotten involved. But I’m accountable. It is what it is.”
A search for the channel on YouTube returns no results, suggesting it has either been deleted or made unavailable.
