This is undoubtedly what a resident of Aveyron wanted to afford when he decided, on December 31, to set off on the roads of the department at the wheel of his Ariel Atom, an English sports car that looks like s be mistaken for a small Formula 1 racing car.
With more than 300 horsepower under the hood, this vehicle approved to run on French roads has been checked at 169 km/h on an axis where the speed is authorized at 90 km/h. The soldiers of the departmental road safety squadron of Aveyron immediately stopped the race of the driver and proceeded to a legal immobilization of the vehicle, they indicate on their page Facebook.
That day, he was not the only motorist to have confused the departmental roads with a racing circuit since the soldiers drew up 26 tickets for speeding, five of which led to the retention of the driving license.
