In the US, we have cameras in traffic lights that can catch people who blow through them. They also have radar stands (the ones that show your speed in a red LED) which can take images of your car and you can be issued a ticket. Here though, because you can't prove who was driving the vehicle, the ticket is strictly a fine, without points on the license.
If you are going 67 over (102 in 35) in most, if not all, states would be considered criminal. It would be in his best interest to at least try to fight the ticket. Though a better course of action would be to SLOW DOWN, if he can try to get out of any penalties I wouldn't blame him. I'm unsure whether the police officer is being paid for his time at court or not (probably is, being his appearance gets money for the town from the ticket). But often times, you can just hire a lawyer, they make a few phone calls, and you don't have to bother with court, and you pay a comparable price (the reduced charge balances out the lawyer fees, if you get a competant lawyer).
A common thing with younger drivers is vehicle tuning. Often times, we put lowering springs in the vehicle. A cat could be large enough to get up under the body and do damage.
