Mustang driver caught 73 km/h over the speed limit

At those speeds they should lose the RIGHT to drive for a year or two – and be required to watch their pride and joy being crushed.

That may make the others think.

This incident demonstrates the ACT Government’s enforcement is solely about revenue – they keep these people on the roads because people who have no intention of obeying road rules are a great source of revenue. If they were actually serious about road safety, people like this would be removed from public roads – as Inspector Hutchenson said “You can’t just drive this fast ‘by mistake’; it’s a deliberate choice…”

Speed in itself is not a danger.
Speed is a term defined in Australia as kilometres per hour.
Speed limits were devised when cars were no where near as safe and refined as they are now.
That said, Mustang driving is not known as smart.

You have to be a bit of a goose to race along Majura Parkway. An easy pickup for the ACT Police. I thought tailgating was a significant factor in a large portion of all collisions on ACT roads.
