That was stupid of him.
It's not this car that has got me these offences per se because I generally never drive the speed limit. In my car or on my bike. Last summer, I took out a ducati V4s for a test ride and over took a line of about 12 cars in a row on the A140 between Norwich and Ipswich. When I looked down, I was at 150+mph. It was a 50 zone. Fast bikes, them.
I've never had a clean licence since 1987. I've tried. I was clean for two weeks a couple of years ago. But that's it. Our cars do promote heavy throttle use, I must say. Mine is really settled in now a drives beautifully. Had a bit of trouble keeping up with a Audi S1 tonight, though. And it was smoking a tiny bit.
