"You were, somewhere, the electroshock that made me realize that the danger on the road, it was not the others, it was me," admitted a motorist verbalised for speeding to Annecy.

"The danger on the road, it was me": the national police received a funny letter of thanks in Haute-Savoie after verbalizing a driver for speeding. "I just wanted to thank you for your intervention," writes the man in a handwritten letter addressed to a crew of the anti-crime squad who arrested him in Annecy, broadcast Thursday on Twitter by the police.

Police "welcome" this "lesson"

"You were, somewhere, the electroshock that made me realize that the danger on the road, it was not the others, it was me .. It is yet 15 years that my entourage is afraid of ride with me by car, I should have suspected but I thought they maximized things, "says the driver assuring that he will assume the penalty.

A rather innocuous letter of thanks has reached PoliceNat74.
