BERLIN (AP) — A motorist was clocked driving at more than 320 kph (199 mph) on the Autobahn west of Berlin, a record high at more than 124 mph above the speed limit, German police said. The speedster, who was not identified, was caught while racing along the A2 highway near Burg on July 28. The driver was handed a fine of 900 euros ($1,043), stripped of two points from his driver’s license and banned from driving for three months, the Magdeburg police office said Tuesday.

Its pretty unreal what speeds sports bikes can hit. Had a 600 crotch rocket in my early 20s and got up to 165 on it at one point. Motorcyclists are good at saying "its not you, its the other people around you". Well, it was me that was the problem on the motorcycle. Fortunately I sold it before my wrist twisted myself into a problem.

North BR people say that’s rookie numbers. They go a lot faster than that on the NBR 110 Autobahn.

He was probably doing just over, but the cop screwed him out of the Guinness book.

If you have a car that goes almost 200mph...

A $1k fine (why is he being fined dollars in Germany?) is something you'd find in your couch cushions

If you go over 200 you can actually create fuel

Not just 110. Two cars just accomplished that feat on I12 no more than an hour ago.

Got in an accident in the autobahn because some a-hole speeding near an on-ramp where there are speed limits. Not a fan of that road
