Man fined after clocking near 200mph on German motorway

  • An unidentified motorist was caught driving at 321 kph (199 mph) on the A2 Autobahn near Burg, west of Berlin.
  • This speed was more than 124 mph above the 120 kph (74.5 mph) speed limit for that particular section of the motorway.
  • The driver was detected by a roadside radar stand, an “Enforcement Trailer,” on 28 July.
  • As a result, the motorist received a fine of 900 euros, had two points deducted from their driving licence, and was banned from driving for three months.
  • While Germany's Autobahn is famous for its lack of universal speed limits, approximately 30 per cent of its network, including the section where the incident occurred, does have restrictions.
