GOES – Police reached speeds of more than 200 kilometers per hour Sunday in pursuit of a motorist who had recently surrendered his driver’s license for a serious speeding violation.
Officers checked the Sloeweg (N62) and determined with the help of a laser gun that the Audi driver was driving at least 162 kilometers per hour, where 100 kilometers per hour is the limit. “It became clear that the driver was driving quickly, as we could only give him a follow signal at Goes,” said the police. In the end, the man was pulled over, his driver’s license was confiscated and he was given a report.He was also ordered not to drive until he got his driver’s license back.
Half an hour after the stop, the driver was seen driving again. This time the man was temporarily stopped at the Westwal in Goes. However, the driver left and the police chased him. “During the shooting, the suspect ignored red traffic lights and at some points drove over 200 kilometers per hour on the highway. He also passed the emergency lane. In the end, the suspect was stopped and arrested near the Western Scheldt tunnel, “reported the police. .
It is the driver’s responsibility to actually drive with a suspended driver’s license. He is also accused of having behaved in traffic in such a way that there was a serious violation of traffic rules. In addition, he appeared to be under the influence of narcotics. The driver’s license will be sent to a public prosecutor. The suspect’s vehicle was impounded for surrender. This means that he may have lost his car permanently and the state will try to sell it.

What an ass. Will this person also get a chance to buy this car back? This can always be done through a third party, of course. This car is best sent to the scrap yard.

I think it is always unsafe on the road. This shouldn’t be on the road anymore, get rid of it for this accident.

Good job to those guys!! Travel on the N62 every day and they often pass at great speed. As far as I’m concerned, they check there every day or install a mobile speed camera, which guarantees that he will get his money back several times over.
