My "favorite" was an Oklahoma City police officer that allowed his buddies to film from INSIDE the patrol car while their friends flew by on bikes at 120+ at a very busy intersection. I always wished I could figure out the officer's name...he deserved to lose his job...and the "boys" needed to go to jail. This video was posted on a website for awhile a couple of years ago...I'm sure it is still floating around somewhere...it is the internet.

Here is an article of a guy in Oklahoma who got busted because he did post his video on youtube.

"Highway Patrol troopers said they arrested a man after he drove a Corvette recklessly in traffic with speeds in excess of 190 mph."

They found his 140 mph video on YT after the fact.
Not nit picking though...people DO need to watch what they post on the internet. That guy in OK...wow... there is a perfect example of idiocy right there. Busy road, traffic...if a tire blew he would be in oncoming traffic before he could get the "OH" of "OH SH!P!" out of his mouth!

Save it for the school zone!


No just kidding, bring it to the track, although the incriminating video does suck.
Imagine posting a burnout vid and getting a wreckless for it, and dont tell me none of you have done a smoke show before

I've gotten my Mustang up to a little over 135, but I was scared to go faster even though the car would have. And I wasn't fighting 50mph winds either, that guy is a moron.

I have been over 150 in the states (Very dumb) when I was a kid in daddy's BMW. Lucky I was not killed. But they do shut the speed off at 155...I learned that one.

I have been to 160+ on the autobahn as a passenger in a tuned Mercedes s-class diesel...the cars and trucks in the right lane become a blur as you fly by at speed...praying that nobody pulls out in front of you.
