#1. Don't speed like that when traffic is fairly heavy (2nd video more so)

#2. Don't have video on your head

#3. Don't post under your normal user name

#4. Don't do 195mph on a public road

I wonder if they got him for illegal lane changes? lol

Maybe the person who reported it lives in the area? It's the same as if you see someone racing down the highway and call it in. It's stupid and there's a good chance you could lose control and kill someone, so I don't see how that's "sticking their nose in others business", especially when it comes to safety.

theres video proof so i guess it would be like if cops caught a bank robber because they got his face on video.

Well it could have been super imposed lol... Looking at the 2nd part of the vid, it looks as if he went 110 or 120... Not 190+

Really. In the frame that shows the speedometer how do they know he didn’t have it set to km/h? At 120 km/h that would be less than 75 mph.

I would have my attorney use the computer generated excuse, sped-up, in kmh.... etc etc and then say I said the video was me to push the car sale through.

Guess that could fall into the same category of redlight cameras or something of the such, but the guy admitted to doing so and that was his fault.

That's what he gets for granny shifting instead of double clutching like he should.
