Motorcyclist clocked going 193 mph on NY highway
Motorcyclist clocked going 193 mph on NY highway - Yahoo! News
ROSENDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say a 28-year-old man in upstate New York has been charged with driving his motorcycle at nearly 200 mph on a highway in the rain.
State police say a trooper clocked Anthony Anderson of Poughkeepsie driving at 193 mph around 8 p.m. Wednesday in the southbound lanes of Interstate 87 just south of Albany — the same stretch of road where another motorcyclist was spotted doing 166 mph earlier this month.
The trooper was able to get a description of the high-performance bike and alerted nearby patrols.
Troopers eventually stopped Anderson in the town of Rosendale. He told them he was headed to a hospital to visit a patient.
Anderson was issued 14 traffic tickets, including one for speeding.
It couldn't be immediately determined if he had a lawyer.
Bet that one is going to be a touch expensive......

Rain will affect the radar gun so it's very possible that the numbers are highly skewed due to the rain. But it makes big news headlines so they run with the numbers to make people get all freaked out about it. That's why I can't stand the show cops. It's so blown out of proportion.

I would have to believe Anderson "he was headed to the hospital... To be a patient..."
