Top Gear s13e05

That speeding ticket must be a record or something. I wonder if Philip Odegard even stopped and they just found him later?
Maybe a police helicopter, can they go that fast even?

Depends on the chopper, Bell Jetranger II can do 200km/h+
And a 10km/hr difference at 4,000ft altitude isn't going to ruin your day.

LAPD uses the Eurocopter AS350 which can hit about 175 MPH. They also have a few Bell Jetranger 209's which will only hit about 140 MPH. Sounds like he got nabbed by the radio.

Let alone TEN ninja's.
So by your logic... ninjas should be cops.
I like where you're going with this....
