Id be more worried about the speed myself and the fact that you are confirming it on a public forum that is accessible by everyone. They have all the proof they need right there to just take your licence, possibly your car and fine you a fortune as well.

Maybe you should think about removing the video and editing a few posts.

Yea I've heard that driving with a phone in hand is a pretty hefty fine these days
Yea that too, but people in SA have lost their licenses from videos such as yours, they follow the video, work out what your car is, rego and match the vehicle in the video and your car in person and can charge you for it

So 180km/h and phone while driving, your risk....

Has happened in SA many times. Only a few months ago a guy got charged for Reckless driving and exceeding the speed limit from a video like yours

But hey, it's your video and your license :roll:

I heard a legend about a guy who drove a similar FTO to mine that reached past 180 on the speedo past a police station at 3am. Warped the discs on the wind down, allegedly...

Lol .. I remember that article...

And Meh, to your speed limits in your FTO's ... Get a motorbike!!! It is easy to bypass the 300km/hr limit on a 1000cc bike as well ... And it is much more fun ... :D On the track ... Under a controlled environment of course... 8)

BWaaOhoAHOAHHAOAoaHOHAohOHAohAOHAOHAa sucker!!!

Call me stupid, but I enjoy driving my car and riding my motorbike, and I will do everything to ensure that I can continue doing that...and not stay home with a suspended license. Even if it needs me to drive 2kms below the speed limit on a freeway :)

Haters gonna hate and sit at home with suspended licenses.... :D
