If he’d have been on (certain sections of) an autobhan, this wouldn’t be a story.

Either we all go limitless (on certain sections) or Germany should come into line with the rest of Europe.

Two hundred miles an hour in a stolen car on the public highway? Taking photos of the speedometer?

Just stand there lad while I throw the book at you

Jail time.

For agrivated vehicle theft - Magistrates 6 months max, crown court 2 years unless you cause death by dangerous driving then its 14 years max. Not sure about the speeding as I think thats classified as a “basic offence” whereas the agrivated bit is dangerous driving + stealing on top.

Very long driving ban no doubt.

I’m a card carrying member of the 200mph club. Elvington airfield on the infamous “for rent” Hayabusa & clocked at 203.8mph.

Definately not for the faint of heart. One of my only regrets in life is not following that up & going for 300mph, but that was prohibitively expensive for me.

In many ways I think those doing extreme speeds are a lot more safer on our roads than those doing moderate speeds & not really “aware” of their situation !

Did you take 1 hand off of the handlebar to take pix of your speedo at 200?

Somewhere out there, is a traffic planner, who’s wishing they could make trucks travel at 200mph to match the ETA on their computer screen… then reprimand the driver on their return for poor fuel economy… :sunglasses:
