interesting that certain speed cameras only work up to certain speeds! lol

at those sort of numbers, you'd have thought his legal team could have devised a better excuse than a "faulty speedo"

I'm not sure the 1mill fine is anything other than speculation right now

Bit daft going that quickly in Switzerland though

Make sure the jackets are in your cabin, not the boot, as they have to be accessible to be legal.

Are these hidden radars/cameras then? Over here in 'Sverige', the cameras aren't as blatant as the UK ones (they clock you face on before you know what's happened) but they do put warning signs up.

I got caught doing 97kmh in a 70kmh by a policeman hiding in a blacked out BMW at the side of the road without warning... So I would have thought this chap would have some sense to watch out for hidden speed traps.

186mph? And in Switzerland and topped of with a £650,000 fine?!! LOL! A legendary achievement, well done that man

"with police having filmed the incident to use as evidence against the driver."

Yeah, good one. More like so they can watch it on the late shift without risk of having porn found on their laptops!
