I think that is a bit of a **** move by the cops but am I the only one that read the article?
Speed limit is 100 KPH (62 MPH) and drops to 90 KPH (56 MPH). The drivers were clocked at 121-123 KPH (75-76 MPH) at the change which means they were already 21-23 KPH (13-14 MPH) over the limit prior to the speed drop which now brings them to 31-33 KPH (19-20 MPH) OVER the legal limit.
Regardless of the tact or lack of on the part of the officers, the Mini group was breaking the law and apparently some were breaking more than one. (Apparently you can't have radar detectors there?)
Isn't the saying "you gotta pay to play!"?
