Motor Vehicles — speeding

Jeffrey L. Manke appeals a judgment finding him guilty of speeding. Wisconsin Stat. § 346.57(4)(h) provides that no person shall drive a vehicle at a speed in excess of fifty-five miles per hour. Manke’s main argument is that the speeding statute is unconstitutional as applied to him as, according to his religion, he is a “man” and not a “person.” We affirm; Manke as a “man” meets the meaning of a “person,” and Manke’s other arguments are unpersuasive. This opinion will not be published.
