The Ocala Star-Banner reports the girl was going 52 in a 35-mph zone. The officer followed the vehicle and the girl stopped after several blocks. She told the officer she'd lost her license and didn't have the registration. She gave him a date of birth after thinking about it and asking a 15-year-old passenger if she had it right, police said.
She was taken to a juvenile detention center.
