Authorities in Germany are investigating a Czech millionaire who uploaded to YouTube a record of his driving at an astronomical speed of 417 km / h. His Bugatti. His
wild ride took place last summer, but he drew the attention of the authorities to it when he uploaded the videos to the network last month. He set off only when circumstances allowed, he said, the ride was at 4:50 a.m. Sunday - an hour and day when there is usually not much traffic on the roads - and that he had examined the road section before.
Although German law does not restrict speed on the country's highways, authorities can still prosecute drivers who drive at "excessive" speeds and in a manner that blatantly violates traffic laws and recklessness.
German Transport Minister Polker Vising condemned the Czech millionaire's act, saying that although there is no speed limit, the car must be "under control".
According to local reports, authorities may settle for a fine.
