+1. one foolish act on my behalf already got me into a serious accident. I never thought it would happen to me......but so does everyone else that does stupid shit. Now i drive 35 on the streets/70 on the freeway....cause the bottom line is, you might be there before me 100 times....but you're luck will run out sooner or later.

Stay safe everyone

It's not speed that kills; it's the rapid deceleration. =D

This should have been done on a closed course--not a public highway with a posted speed limit.

Isn't this the same douche bag that was caught rolling over 160 in an M6? Name sounds sorta the same......

Anyways, he needs to get slammed hard for trying crap like that and endangering other people's lives.

Shouldn't it be "Man films himself driving 140mph and getting arrested" .. rather than the current title, which implies the filming led to him being jailed ..?

Was this 3 speeding violations in the year of 2011 or in the past 365 days?
If its option one this guy is probably the dumbest driver I have ever seen. Also why are all these runs at night, the only time I would speed this much is on a deserted dry stretch of road on crystal clear day. This guy just doesn't even value his own life.

I'm disappointed.

Nick...maybe we shouldn't show anymore of our videos doing 160+ to the guys back in the states....at least here it's 1) legal 2) roads are made for it 3) people get out of the way 4) the guy next to you is in a VW Polo doing 165 :-) and 5) we rig cameras so we hold both hands where they need to be...

Using both hands on the wheel at those speeds: check

Well, he is not doing all bad things; at lease he has the car in S mode.
classic


the article mentions nothing of the rain when i caught a glimpse in the vid it became clear this guy is mentally challenged

What a retard. If you he only took video of the speedometer then it wouldnt fly, but the stupid donkey video taped the street signs and road. Dang this should be on the world's most stupidest crimes caught on tape.

Traffic enforcement love browsing Youtube and car forums

Edit: I just read the article and it said the officer clocked him ? BULL*** ! You cannot clock someone "in the rain" with 50 Mph gusts winds. Traffic enforcement are such liars.

Tell the damn truth, it appeared the dude was driving fast, seemed to be 118 mph. Officers always pull a wild card out their "Beep" and make up something to call it clocked or paced when they know damn well they are fudging it.

Well I guess this dumb ass will learn his lesson the hard way. I too use to have a lead foot but nothing like this moron. My insurance premium hikes finally caught up and made me take it easy. now I enjoy hitting the track for balls out driving. Way more satisfying than speeding on public roads
