Although the law wasn't aimed at him and I have more sympathy towards him than I would towards actual street racers, the same law still applies to everyone. To only apply the law to one section of the population would be discrimination.
I don't think he should be let off the hook because of his age alone. If the appointment was an emergency, I think he could argue extenuating circumstances, but it wasn't. He was likely just late and driving fast to make up the time.
