Flickering at a speed of 234 km / h instead of 80, the gendarmes take his motorcycle and license.

Last Sunday at Doubs, the biker hit 234 km / h instead of 80 km / h.

French departmental roads are especially popular with bikers. Some riders use the long straight lines these roads offer to have fun on their motorcycle. However, some accelerations can be costly for the driver!

On Sunday 20 September 2020, EDSR gendarmes conducted checks on the RD 492 departmental road between Chantran and Ornand in Doubs. At the end of the day, these gendarmes received surprise when the biker makes a speeding ticket... I must say that they heard a large steam locomotive coming from afar ...

Indeed, this biker (or ring pilot, depending on the point of view) was spotted by mobile radar at 234 km / h instead of 80 km / h. After removing the field the speed held against the driver is still 222 km / h.... The speed is still too high to avoid sanctions. I must admit that this speed does not have to be on a small country road, but is intended for the highway.

One of the gendarmes who participated in the arrest indicated : “It's unusual, I've never seen him off the highway. “.

Indeed, this biker, in his 40s, was subjected to a double fine, which applies in case of speeding: namely the immediate confiscation of his motorcycle, as well as the revocation of his driver's license.

Upon arrest, he explained to the police that wanted to test the power of my Kawasaki by pushing him in circles in a straight line … This person will have to appear and stand trial. He will have to settle for Sunday Moto GP for many more months!
