“When I saw two small lights coming quickly to me, I knew it was a sports car and the driver was driving fast, very fast.” Constable Nicolas Jevoipa of the motorized brigade then fired his laser pistol. At 21:50 Friday night, it is already dark. “I told my colleague to start the bike. The intended motorist is on the A31, just before the exit Bresleses towards Clermontras.

The driver and impostor has just set the relative speed record for this car. The speed against him will be 315 km / h. “He told us he wanted to peak, test it. As it was getting dark, he thought he was safe. He was wrong.

The night does not bother us, on the contrary. With the laser, we take the headlights in visual cues, we aim at the middle and we shoot. It’s almost easier. “The record is not official, it’s just the outcome of a chase with the police. This record demonstrated that she could really compete with any sportswoman.
