Woman in BMW caught at 214 km/h

[The Joker]

Driving 100Km/h over the speed limit shows your life and the ones around you mean nothing to you.
I reckon a hefty fine R30 000 in this case should be enforced, she should also be added to a list where if she is caught speeding again her car gets impounded for 90 days + above fine.

Jail time for speeding in SA isn't something that'll happen in the near future. Although I reckon if you do these speeds you are pretty much attempting to murder someone.

214 is way too fast to be driving on roads, don't want that person to go to jail, but the car should be confiscated and license should be suspended for 10 years. Should she be in violation of that then something more serious should happen.

I like your line of thinking. Maybe a two year suspension, but if the same offence is committed within a specific period, then a longer suspension must be enforced.

As a part of the penalty the offender should be made to do community service as well as attend a defensive driving programme. Not advanced drivers ; defensive driving.

Nah, I think jail is the perfect place for her. Let's face it, speeding is bad enough, but if you drive 214 then it shows you have absolutely no regard for the other road users. At 214 if anything unexpected happens you're almost certain to cause an accident which endangers other peoples' lives, which you are definitely aware of when you drive at those speeds.

I say give no mercy to people driving at ludicrous speed.

Jails are already over "stocked" with miscreants. Taxpayers pay for each of these lowlifes. Jag should be a last resort, maybe?

She'll be driving with in 2 hours of loosing her license.

And that is where enforcement comes into it. One day when our Metros & SAPS are operating efficiently and not taking bribes, they will eventually catch up with her, and that is when impact of penalties & value of fines are hiked.
