With insomnia, the elderly decide to drive around and is caught at over 230 km / h

What comes to your mind when you imagine a lady - almost - octogenarian at the wheel? You would probably think of a lovely old lady driving very, very slowly, and even zigzagging down the street, right?

Well, according to Justin T. Westbrook of Jalopnik, a 79-year-old woman was caught on a radar in Belgium for driving at high speed. According to Justin, the incident occurred one night in June of last year, around midnight, when you decided to take a ride with your Porsche Boxster GTS and reached almost 238 kilometers per hour. Only!

The elderly woman - whose identity was not revealed - had to report to local authorities last week to clarify. As she explained, her head was full of worry that she was getting her sleep, so she thought it might be a good idea to go for a drive to get some sleep. The lady said she was behind the wheel of the Porsche herself, and she didn't even realize she was driving so fast.

According to Justin, as the old woman had no criminal record, she had her driver's license suspended for three months and was ordered to pay a basic fine equivalent to more than $ 14, 400 - a sentence she quietly accepted without argument.
