Allhaming - 300 km / h on the highway - "That was the absolute leader," Klaus Scherleitner, Deputy. Head of the provincial traffic department (LVA), can only shake his head over that s motorcyclist who reportedly was on Wednesday pulled out of circulation on the A1. The Salzburg (30) had the 182-hp Yamaha YZF-R1 at a company for the ride to Linz borrowed, was with his girlfriend (23) on the pillion on the way to Linz. An urgent appointment, as he justified his later insanity ride.

Between Sattledt Allhaming and he came but in a civil strife of the LVA. "The colleague saw the first motorcycle in the rearview mirror of his Honda," said Scherleitner to VOLKSBLATT. The policeman accelerated, seconds later he was already out of date - up to 300 km, it brought the Yamaha and her pursuers before the 30-year-olds identified the bike in the rearview mirror as a police motorcycle and went off the accelerator. Salzburg had the first attempt did not talk his way out and admitted that exceeded 170 km / h immediately so Scherleitner. About his sentence and license suspension now will decide the bra.

Intercept the police on the three-lane sections just when the weather has always Raser is not uncommon. So far, it brought the frontrunner but "only" 270 km / h.

"We the racers are now equal!"

While officials had earlier at such speeds, often at a disadvantage, you are now motorized well. "We are now the equal of racers," Scherleitner hopes that this incident deter future gas hand-driver.

For motorcycle experts such frenzies are already madness. "Just imagine what can happen there," says Scherleitner. After all, lying on the road again obstacles, including a bump would have been enough - for a flight into death.
