A guy got clocked at over 160 mph on a Honda CBR600 last year on Lake Shore Drive in Chicago in traffic.

Yah, I saw that on Max X too. I guess if he could affford the F-140 he could afford the ticket.

Wehh wehh wehh. Speeding is not necessarily unsafe. I hope you never go 1mph above the speed limit.

I used to drive that road to work everyday last year. I'm not surprised, I've seen people do that allot, I dunno how they managed it but everytime I went on that road I seen about 4 cop cars and 5 speed cams on that section of road. Very easy road to speed on, it's why there has been major improvements on that road for cross traffic.

It's not the speed that kills, it's the sudden stop. Just remember, a collision @ 55mph is fatal, cruising at 155 is not.

That being said, however, I still think it's ridiculous how easy it is to get a license in this country.

You think all you get is a big ticket for doing 200? Think again.. I heard they took the car and threw him in jail. Not sure about that tho.
