We found our two champions of the weekend who decided to defy the sound barrier. Two drivers, unfortunately not on a circuit, will receive heavy sanctions after defying the authority of the police on the roads of France.
255 km/h, the sound barrier but highway version
The afternoon of November 24 offered a spectacle worthy of a video game, but very real, on the A7 motorway between Mersch and Ettelbruck. The Luxembourg police, in the middle of a control operation, intercepted a driver who clearly mistook the road for a circuit. At 255 km/h, almost twice the authorized speed, the car was stopped dead in its tracks… and so was its driver. Stolen license and heavy penalties.
A second “driving ace” at 222 km/h
If you thought such a feat only happens once, think again. The same day, another driving ace was flashed at 222 km/h on the same axis. No broken records, but sufficient performance to get a one-way ticket like his predecessor to the confiscation of his license. Apparently, these two drivers did not have time to consult the warnings before their little “ride”.
To summarize
On Sunday, on the A7 motorway, two motorists thought they were F1 drivers, displaying speeds of 255 and 222 km/h. As a result, the bitumen heated up, but their permits melted. A look back at crazy races without a trophy.
