A 17-year-old teenager spent the night from Saturday to Sunday in police custody in Gard.
During the numerous checks organized in the department on the occasion of the Easter weekend, when motorists are very numerous on the roads, the gendarmes stopped this young man, who was checked at 178 km / h on the A9 motorway, they said on Facebook on Sunday.
In addition to not having, given his young age, a driving license, the respondent is also suspected of having driven under the influence of narcotics, and without insurance.
And, say the gendarmes, he will also have to answer for a refusal to comply.
