January 15, 2024 at 7:15 a.m. in the territory of the municipality of Fontaine-en-Bray (Seine-Maritime) on the D915 between Forges-les-Eaux and the Hayons roundabouta radar surprises a motorist which travels at a speed of 148 km/h (133 retained) instead of 80.

Unconsciousness according to the representative of the Prosecutor's Office

When he was questioned in Dieppe court in recent days, the driver indicated that it was because he feared “arriving late for work” that he committed this offense.

For the representative of the Public Prosecutor's Officethis does not justify this unconsciousness which endangers his life and that of other road users.

It requires a road safety awareness course and a fine of 300 euros.

The driver keeps his license

The lawyer who represents the defendant explains that her client could very well have contested this infraction since it is not recognized on the digital radar image.

The other arguments put forward aim to maintain the driving license of the worker involved in this case.

The judge takes this into account and simply imposes a fine of 300 euros. The man thus keeps his license.
