Veyron vs. Ferrari 599 in Highway Race

This is freakin’ hilarious.

According to Automotoportal, there was a highway race between a Bugatti Veyron and a Ferrari 599. This happened in England, on the M27 motorway. The Bugatti was leading in the race for about ten minutes before he got pulled over.

So what happened was a police officer was just sitting there with his radar gun, not really paying much attention to anything, when suddenly this black thing shoots past him, quickly followed by another black blur. Being a policeman, he just has to spoil the fun, so he chases after him, and reaches 140 mph before catching the Bugatti and pulling him over. The Ferrari got away, and since it had no plates, it was impossible to track.

The luckless Bugatti owner got three penalty points and a £60 fine, which is about $120.

Wow, first of all I’m surprised the Bugatti got pulled over, as in….they actually stopped haha. But, with that sort of punishment I guess I would’ve too. That’s not even a slap on the wrist! It’s a “Okay, just don’t do it again, I’m taking your lunch money by the way.”

Here in Ontario, Canada you’d get your car impounded, $10 000 fine, and your license suspended for those speeds.

I’m surprised the cop car caught up with them in the first place. The ticket was probably more like pennies to them.
