In what way was it dangerous? Clearly no-one was in any danger (apart from the driver) as no-one knew about it until the camera was checked. I seem to remember on the local news that this incident took place at 2.30 in the morning or something, so the road was clear.

128mph in a 30mph limit is surely by definition dangerous.

But you can't rely on the road being empty at 2.30 in the morning. A drunk stumbling in the road? Kids returning home after a night out? A dog or cat running in to the road and he or she swerves to avoid?

The driver was very stupid and extremely lucky.

Are you stupid, or on a wind-up ? "Clearly no-one was in danger ??" It was pure, blind luck that nothing happened. Have you any idea what 128mph looks like ? You're there and gone in a flash, and anyone pulling out of a sideroad onto the A22 in front of him would have been wiped out in an instant by this reckless maniac, who would not have had even a sliver of a chance of reacting to ANYTHING in front of him. Not the slightest. What if this utter bellend had ploughed into one of your friends or family ?

This knobcheese wasn't just gambling with his life. He was gambling with anyone unlucky enough to be in his vicinity, and this time, he got away with it. And you think that's alright ?

Jesus.

Can't argue with any of that.

This, with bells (or bellends in this case perhaps) on.
