Where the vehicles were parked it appears the driver might have exceded the 40 or 60kph road work speed zone.

WKB your right, but sometimes your overcome with a little madness and you say "what the ****". When I was a kid I had a 78 Ford Escort 2.0L with a big turbo installed traveling on a long unlit open section of our freeway at 110km at about 2 in the morning. Traveling about 1/2km back was a car that slowed down when I did and sped up when I did. This continued for about a couple of kms and I remember thinking I should slow until the car caught up but I said to my friend next to me "what the ****". I went back into 3rd and took the rev's past 8000 and then into 4th. Halfway through 4th the car following me went passed me so fast he nearly had to hit the skids to slow down to my speed. 2 cops got out of their 351 interceptor and came rushing over asking what I had under the bonnet. I popped the lid and we all had a good chat about the setup under headlights and torchlights and I remember thinking Ive got out of this one when one of the cops said "sorry but we still have to book you". I got done for 180kms in a 110 zone. I had to attend court with my dad because I was 16 and had only held my license for 3 months. I was suspended from driving for 6 weeks but I cant remember how much the fine was for.
I know this must be a VERY tame story compared to some of you guys on the forum!

Regards.
