To be honest I wouldn't want a police car to do those sort of speeds on a public road to catch someone in my car..... Lets face it at those speeds you die... no question. And I have to agree with Si, he did this of his own accord and outside of his remit and therefore he should have suffered the same as all of us. Saying he has suffered enough seems a little lame in my book and just an excuse but as I was caught doing 127mph (3rd time caught doing over 100) and the magistrate took all my personal circumstances and pressures into account gave me a 14 day ban..... so I think a lot of the outcry has to do with the emotion of the situation and the fact that speed cameras p*$$ us all off and this is just a convenient incident for us to project our anger.... Just my humble opinion of course....
