Driver doing 107mph said the Passat was too fast for her.

[randomeddy]

Woo hoo,Passats rule.(I am biased.).

Samina Askar was chased by police recording speeds of up to 107mph.
She said..."It's not my car,my car is not as fast as that.I did not realise." She was driving her brothers Passat.

I do believe the Passat is fitted with a device called a Speedometer, pathetic defence.

Oddly enough, and it's rare to see these but there's a big dial in the middle of the car, kind of looks like a watch face and it has numbers on it and a hand. Let's call it a needle. That needle moves to say how fast the car is moving. If you look at that periodically you can see how fast you're moving.

Or, just see that you're passing every other road user with a big speed differential. And there's a big white Volvo with flashing lights on following you.

Speeding driver told cops who pulled her over: '‘Can you not let me off? My mum will go mad'...

No,I get the paper from the bus that I catch.

It is just over a mile each way and all the short journeys would not do the car any good.
Walk? no,I am on my feet all day and not getting any younger so need to conserve my energy.

'Ms Khan said: “She is 27 years old and has been and will continue to be a decent law abiding citizen. She is remorseful for her behaviour.'

'The court also heard that Aksar had received points on her driving licence for speeding in 2012, and for using a mobile phone whilst driving in 2010.'

1st quote seems to ignore 2nd!

So driving without due care and attention also.

I despise people like her.

Might be a Passat problem, never seen one on the motorway driving under 90

That was my first thought too.. Would love to see that happen.

Allegedly, Did`nt Michael Parkinsons wife pick up a new XJ6 for him, and in driving it oop North to meet him, brought in a smoking wreck?
Apparently she had stuck rigidly to 60 mph as the sale person had advised her
on leaving the show room, Except she had been looking at the Tach, and was wondering why she was passing everyone so fast!!
