Default Idiot of the month award!!! See if you can find something better

2 Wheels + 160 mph + School Zone = 3 Years of Lockup

According to NBC, a 20 year-old Mesa, Arizona motorcyclist was recently sentenced to three years in prison for riding his 2006 Honda CBR 600 through a school zone and crosswalk at speeds over 160 mph. Enforcement officials first spotted the ex-racer traveling at roughly 140 mph through morning rush hour traffic, and a 30 minute pursuit ended with a foot chase that resulted in the man's arrest. Apparently, his history of reckless driving and riding under a suspended license didn't help his argument in court.

Is this a case of motorcycle prejudice, or was justice served? Share your thoughts by commenting.
Justice served. I would suspect a person driving a car like that would get a similar punishment. Be prepared for the consequences. The guy was doing nearly 10X's the speed limit (School zones in Pennsylvania are 15 mph). There would have been no way for him to stop if a kid happen to enter the street to cross. In PA, the fines double in school zones.

Will a 600 break 160? I could see 135 in a school zone, but 160 is out of control.

160, huh? Probably just another out-of-control crazy SunDevil. [sm=lildevil.gif]
