(ADW) It was around 10am on Saturday while police were carrying out speed checks in Bettembourg that a car approached them not travelling slightly above the speed limit but more than double the limit for the section of road.

In a 50km per hour zone the car was clocked doing 112km per hour and immediately stopped.

The motorist turned out to be a young driver who only recently passed the driving test and was still in the “probation” period. Added to that the offender was reported not to be wearing a seatbelt during the incident.

The driver’s licence was immediately seized.
