He will remember his first day of re-containment for sure.

A 50-year-old man was arrested on Friday afternoon, near Angers, after speeding on the A11 motorway, reports the Maine-et-Loire gendarmerie.

Around 5.30 p.m., this reckless driver, domiciled in the Sarthe, was flashed at 223 km / h on a portion limited to 110 km / h maximum.

Or a record overtaking of 113 km / h!

It was intercepted near Saint-Lambert-la-Potherie, west of Angers.

His driver's license was immediately withdrawn and his powerful vehicle, a Mercedes class E, was immobilized.

He risks big

The 50-year-old faces up to six months of license suspension, a heavy fine, as well as confiscation of the car.

"Excessive speed remains the aggravating factor of the majority of road traffic accidents observed in our department," recalls the Maine-et-Loire gendarmerie.
