Excessive Speed

Wouldn't care less what happens to this guy if he drove at this speed but to put other drivers at risk is just unforgivable, deserved what he got!

d4springer · 11-05-2015, 02:56 PM

That's mental, he must have been the one filming as well by the look of it?!

mrbmwx3 · 11-05-2015, 02:58 PM

Yep, which makes it even worse! Not sure what BMW he was driving, but managed to do near 200 quite easily!

Looks like a Audi to me (from the pic)

That's what I was trying to figure out, thought it must have been an M5 but didn't see any M badges in the speedo! probably just a 330 then

Apl440i or 335d? · 11-05-2015, 03:19 PM

M5 or M6.... Can tell by the tachometer.

What a total twat. Cut his legs off.

Seems we are both right

Good spot! Maybe can't see the M logo because it's dark obviously, nice looking cars he's had, pity he's an arse!

Exactly, where other people are aware of the risks! On public roads, at that speed it's so easy for someone to mis-judge your distance!

Nick the Greek · 11-05-2015, 03:49 PM

I don't see the problem personally.

The sentence was totally disproportionate to the 'crime'.

Was anyone injured?

No.

Was anyone killed?

No.

Did anyone suffer a loss?

No.

I could have burgled your house and buggered your Grandma and I'd have got a lesser sentence.

The world has gone mad.

FSE23 · 11-05-2015, 03:50 PM

Well fine, not sure why he was jailed but 10 years of disqualification seems probably ok. But I really don't understand why his daughter was disqualified from driving? Should I be disqualified for watching and enjoying "Fast and Furious?" This seems to me radiculous.

There is likely more to it, however it also falls in to failing to prevent it happening and taking part in the crime.

Apart from that's she's from Rushden .....

Guess several people saw him driving and they did not call Police so they are equally guilty, why not to sentenced them too?

Mattyk · 11-05-2015, 03:56 PM

Not the brightest move, keeping the videos!

Makes you wonder how someone so dim could afford the cars, they will be obsolete when he can legally drive them again

There is a difference to actively taking part and being a witness.

It's a shame people like this don't just get killed, simpler.

there were multiple videos, not a one time offence. She was only in one of the vids it seems, so maybe she got a lesser sentence, obviously wasn't the one driving either.
