Motorcyclist Busted For Going 166 MPH On Thruway
That's just hard to imagine! 166 miles per hour. The cops saved his life when they busted this guy. They probably also saved the lives of innocent motorist he was scaring the hell out of while he was being an idiot. 25 year old Nikkolaus McCarthy of Charlton was hit with a slew of charges including fleeing police. When police told him how fast he was going he literally told them that the bike could easily do 190 miles per hour. After the hefty fines are levied he will probably be looking at some crazy insurance increases if a company would even insure someone who was busted for doing 166.
All in all, I'm just glad he's safe and that the other motorists are safe as well.
