Democrat allegedly caught driving 107 mph cites ‘legislative privilege’ as the reason she can’t be punished

Ellen Read, a Democratic member of New Hampshire’s House of Representatives, appears to have a lead foot.

Read was twice stopped for speeding down Interstate 93 in recent years — once on Dec. 2, 2024, allegedly going 107 mph, and again on June 5, 2025, allegedly going 92 mph, according to court records reviewed by the Boston Globe.

‘It isn’t diplomatic immunity.’

Read, the same leftist lawmaker who solicited the Satanic Temple’s Baphomet display at the state house ahead of Christmas 2024, apparently has some confusion over whether the traffic laws her constituents have to obey similarly apply to her.

The Democrat is urging the New Hampshire Supreme Court to permit her to appeal her speeding tickets partly on the grounds that she supposedly cannot be stopped and ticketed
