She received a warning for the speeding portion of it

Generally 50+ mph over speed limit is an immediate trip to jail. Not "oh, well since you were running late to a meeting we understand -- just try not to exceed 55 again, please!" The police do not normally let people off with a warning for an infraction like that, unless kneepads are involved.
