Looking at him I wouldn't be surprised if he injects some "roids" in with his unleaded and perhaps a wee bit of Coke in the air filter

He's a bit of a cheeky bugger, that's for sure.

So he drove his car a bit quick on the roads, well f'ing mental quick....

But no one was hurt, no one reported him (they stumbled across the crime while investigating something else), and there were no real consequences as far as I understand

Does speeding really warrant 2 years in prison?

Chris.

It is wreckless doing those speeds but i agree.



Far worse crimes get punished far less severely, easy target though as we know.

It clearly doesnt warrant jail

But bikers repeatedly go down for stuff like this on something which would cause much less carnage

We live in a silly state. Jailing people for moments of madness like this is idiocy.

No it does not warrant jail time. Take his license away for life, and parade him in front of the media as being a twat.
These scum deserve major jail time. If found, just lob the key away.

The "justice" system in this country is broken, yet the war on speeding motorists continues whilst real criminals go about their daily business.
