P plater in sunshine gets done for 210kmh

[ice180]

hope it wasn't a skyline or import looks like he/she ain't gunna have a license for a while. oops here is the goss

THERE were more than a few grand prix wannabes left shame-faced after a police speeding blitz netted several lead foots at the weekend.

Among the worst offenders was a P-plater in Sunshine clocked at 128km/h in a 60km/h zone on Saturday night.

He then turned his V8 VS Commodore on to the Western Ring Rd, where he allegedly wound it out to 210km/h before the constabulary caught up with him to remind him he was not on the Albert Park circuit.

His licence was suspended on the spot.

Just minutes earlier police had pulled over another Sunshine driver clocked doing 120km/h in a 60km/h zone.

Police spokesman Sen-Constable Craig Sharkey said the culprit claimed he had suffered a flat tyre and was making up for lost time.

Earlier in the week another speed demon was nabbed doing 180km/h on the highway at Wangaratta, explaining to police he was a motor sport fan on his way to the Melbourne Grand Prix.

He then turned his V8 VS Commodore

So they're giving free publicity to Holden there. Bullshit publicity and preaching to the masses through the newspapers!

hmmm, well they got caught - but how many p platers really doing 150km+ ever get caught? seems rather silly actually. Or what about cops speeding off duty in their bloody commondoor V8's and just flash their badge and get off doing exactly the same thing?

i came home today @ 170km/hr still havent had a chance to go faster to check if speed limitor has been removed

[R31Nismoid]

remember i got 'supposedly' done for 100 in a 60... at 3.30am...

stoppid cops... i'll get out of it!

But 210 ? And they CAUGHT upto him ?

How fast (and in what car) were the coppers driving??

Obviously not a camry LOL

[predator]

Well cops are allowed to speed to catch people as long as its safe.. however it really makes you wonder whether their training is going to 'cause a bad accident in pursuit. Imagine the outcry then.

hey..camry's will do 180. How do i know that - i just do

If they go through a speed camera they have to pay the fine and suffer demerit points and loss of licence unless they can prove they were on a call/job... even when on duty!

well i saw 2 examples of cops speeding without lights or sirens down south road, 60km/hr zone, at least 100. 1 was a wagon, the other was just a crappy commodore. Bout 3 hrs apart, so weren't straight after each other. Really made me angry.

[Horus]

meh

I got done for doing 180 on the eastern freeway when I was 20

[Duncan]

Well, a cop went to gaol last week for a year for killing his partner during an illegal pursuit....

[bangahh]

You tell people in Europe that you did 210km and they laugh at you. they should at least build an autobarn.

[R31Nismoid]

mmm... i followed a cop on motorbike down the city Link form Tulla on thurs last week.

he was doing over 110 the whole way... so i thought i can if he can... i did 110 and he still was getting away.

no sirens... just crusing along.

That's what i hate the most.

How can the expect to pull people over/have them obey laws... when those who are enforcing them don't even do it themselves.

Disgraceful

[Guest gtst88]

[Henros]
