Cool Bugatti Veyron pulled over......

Wow !

Crazy video of a Bugatti Veyron doing 225mph and then getting pulled over by AZ Hwy patrol.



Should you really video your Bugatti Veyron doing 225 mph? | Motoramic - Yahoo! Autos

A motorcycle was caught running faster than that once I think.

If I got a ticket for that speed... yeah, I'd be in trouble, but I do believe I would frame the ticket.



This video is going viral too, my roommate was showing it to me

The fastest speeding ticket in the world allegedly occurred in May 2003 in Texas. It was supposedly 242 mph (389 km/h) in a 75 mph (121 km/h) zone. The car was a Swedish-built Koenigsegg CC8S, which was involved in the San Francisco to Miami Gumball 3000 Rally.

How did the cop catch him? The car would get impounded, and he's going to jail for sure. Felony reckless driving?

The Koenigsegg is also the car that ran off the Top Gear track and plowed up the tire barrier....

Koenigsegg went back and put a wing to give the rear end downforce, the car came back and was the fastest car to lap the track for awhile. Without the rear downforce, it just couldnt' hold itself to the ground around that follow through.

The Stig actually told THEM to put that wing on and it would be perfect.
