Speeding along the Lagan in a streamlined dragon boat, with a full 15 person power under the bonnet, and beats to the rythm of a drum..
We competed in the All Ireland Corporate Games, and came a worthy second.
Perhaps this selfish idiot is now part of another shocking statistic!
The driver of this car overtook me as I did exactly 50mph in a 50mph roadwork zone, monitored by average speed cameras. I would estimate that the car was travelling at around 55-60mph.
.
Background information:
A section of long-term roadworks on the motorway with a 50mph speed restriction in force and monitored by average speed cameras. Due to the hard shoulder and part of lane 1 being blocked off, the three running lanes have all been narrowed, and there is only a couple of feet (c. 60cm) between vehicles travelling side-by-side.
Like myself, the majority of drivers observe the 50mph speed limit, which is in force in order to help ensure the safety of road users and workmen alike, as with vehicles travelling so close to each other there is an increased risk of collisions.
However, there are always a few (quite a few, it seems) drivers who regard the rules of the road as applying to everyone but them. These ignorant drivers travel through the restricted area in excess of the legally enforceable speed limit and in spite of the fact that their law-breaking is being measured and captured by the cameras. Do they really think that they will escape unpunished? Or are they displaying false registration plates, so they know they will not be held accountable for their inconsiderate and anti-social driving?
So I hereby present photographic identification of vehicles that passed me today as I drove along the restricted section of motorway at exactly 50mph (cruise control active). Thus, by default, each of these drivers was exceeding the legal speed limit and as such breaking the law.
Note: Images were captured using a camera fixed to the dashboard of my car and activated by way of a remote control unit attached to my steering wheel, thus allowing me to activate the camera without removing my eyes from the road ahead. The camera was configured to capture a wide field of vision, and images were cropped afterwards to centralise the relevant vehicles.

The one million dollar traffic violation ticket price was not taken from the sky, but rather was a result of a formal calculation. Under the traffic laws of Switzerland the sum rate of any speeding ticket is based on several factors. Those factors mainly are the speed of the car and the income of the driver.
In this case, according to 5koleso.ru, the driver was driving Mercedes-Benz SLS. The traffic violator was a Swedish citizen. His speeding was recorded on a camera on the highway, which connects Bern and Lozan. This car was going at 186.4 mph which is 3.107 miles per minute.
Well, not really. But this panning shot makes it look like it's going fast.
