Driver clocked at 105mph in 30mph zone

NORTH WALES Police may have it in for speeding bikers on the region's roads but their cameras recently clocked one car driver at 105mph in a 30mph zone.

The offender, whose case is pending prosecution, was caught speeding at at over a ton in Towyn on the A548.

Controversially, a police officer was caught speeding at 118mph in a 50mph zone at the A55 roadworks near Halkyn, Flintshire.

The shocking figures have been brought to light by the North Wales Daily Post newspaper, who requested the facts under the Freedom of Information Act.

Anybody wondering why a road that is capale of having someone on it doing 105mph without crashing is limited to 30mph?

More totally inappropriate speed limits?
