He broke the speed limit. On Saturday November 12, 2022, motorcyclists from the Toulouse motorized peloton intercepted a motorcyclist who was visibly in a hurry. He was traveling on the RD20 at the level of the commune of castelmaurou.
An axis limited to 80 km/h
This axis may well be limited to 80km/hthe pilot did not hesitate to push his car – a Ducati Monster 800 cm3 – until 160km/h. If he offered himself a nice dose of adrenaline, this 32-year-old man had surely not anticipated the rest…
Indeed, the biker carried out his “performance” under the binoculars of the gendarmes who were watching in the distance. Neither one nor two, the motorcyclists chased him and intercepted him in stride.
It was not “clean”
Unsurprisingly, the offender’s driver’s license was suspended. He was also forced to temporarily separate from his Ducati: the machine was impounded for seven days.
The soldiers also subjected the individual to a screening for narcotics. With a clear result: positive. This will not help his case before the Toulouse court where the 30-year-old will soon be summoned.
“Wanting to save a few minutes, our driver was finally able to take advantage of a short walk to get home”, ironically the gendarmerie on his Facebook.
As a reminder, speed is one of the main causes of death and users of two wheels are the most vulnerable in the event of an accident.
