He was arrested and taken to Liverpool Police Station where he was charged with dangerous driving, speeding and not displaying P-plates.

[zombie omie jay]

wat a dumb cunt
what did he stop for, the police would not have pursued for long at those sort of speeds

 

[JohnMcGee]

usually i don't care about speeding on the m5, but 249 is a bit extreme.

 

[JohnMcGee]

wait, what? 249? serious?

 

[zombie omie jay]

249

he should have poked his tongue out at them as he went past

but

im pretty sure instant number plate recognition stuff has speeders fucked these days

 

[benv]

Whats this instant number plate recognition thing?

 

[zombie omie jay]

instead of cops having to see and type in your number plate, now they have a camera that instantly regocnises number plates and runs them through a database

 

[speak]

crup you!

 

[benv]

Does that camera take your speed too??

 

[ChockoRepublic]

yeah, i agree with shane. why would you stop if your car is capable of driving at 249 km/h. it must be a pretty high powered car.

 

[JohnMcGee]

damn i wanna know what section of the m5 here was on. im guessing between liverpool and campbelltown. somewhere. probably in the construction zone where the police always are.

Tis insane.

How long would he have to have had his foot to the floor?

Edit: The above question confused me as I typed it haha.

im pretty sure their top speed these days is around 260-270
he would be sitting 800-500 revs off the limiter imo

Pretty decent effort.

It shows how ridiculously low our speed limits are
Every week theres a story about someone caught speeding on the M5
This is a damn good road, we should be able to drive at 130-140

Obviously 250 is extreme

It also shows how ridiculously high car speeds are. They should not be designed to go that high in the first place.

and you are a fucking retard

 

[Amogh]

and you are a fucking retard

No.
I think all he's suggesting is that cars accessible to the general public should not have the capacity to attain such speeds..
how's that retarded in anyway?
I mean..what possible harm could that do?
