merckx Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 A quote from this story. "It is extremely selfish. Nobody has the right to put other people's lives at risk like that." Very true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 A motorist has pleaded guilty to driving at 172mph on a rural A-road, making him the fastest speeder ever caught in Britain.

Class One Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I think this was discussed when the bloke first got arrested. I can't remember if I was pm'd or something, I may be confused, wasn't he employed to ferry customers cars and he got arrested for TDA and dangerous driving. I see the TDA charges were dropped does anyone know if it's been referred to the Crown Court for sentencing? ( I haven't read the article).

ivan Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 They probably will. Unless it turns out he's really an undercover policeman who was just familiarising himself with a new car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Will be intresting to see what he gets:) Bummed repeatedly in prison is a certainty!! Its a truly serious crime, being a motorist.....lets hope they throw the book at him. Or a spear!! I must admit though, you have to be either stupid or have balls as big as coconuts to travel that fast. I only need to get over a ton and my bum starts twitching!! That said, I don't fancy losing my job and going to jail in the interest of having a couple of minutes of fun. H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 10 weeks isn't so bad. I don't expect he'll get on well with the 'real criminals' inside though, I'm sure he'll learn some new trades whilst inside to help him cope now he doesn't have a job. I wonder how long his driving ban is for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
