Funny Story.
The British Joanna James kreeg last firday a ticket in a bus for driving to fast. WIth her Austin Maestro, a car that can't go faster then 110 kmh, she had driven over 770 kmh.
The huspand from Joanna Kenneth, reacted very sinical on this incident: "I'm waiting for a call from NASA. Think they want take a look at this car and the way the engine is composed". Free translation by the Butcher Source Fok.nl |

I liked the case recently where a lorry was clocked at over 100mph
Turned out the lorry was stuck in a traffic jam and the camera had flashed the reflection of a motorbike going past!!!! I did hear a rumour at a recent club meet about a smart (top speed 84.7mph) being clocked at over 135mph, will see if i cna find out more!! |

In Hungary 2 policemen controlled the cars' speed with a 3 dimension measuring instrument in Kecskemét. And they measured 1500 km/h to a car. Why? They were standing next to a military airport...
