I just feel sorry for the survivors and families of all involved - there are no winners in crashes like this.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Police influence ??
The really interesting bit is how they were 'clocked' at 166km/h only minutes earlier.
I get the feeling 'clocked' means police radar not speed camera, which usually leads to the cops trying to pull the car over to issue a ticket.
There are reports of the police misconduct attending the site too, hmm.
I'm willing to bet there was some sort of police chase hereMK4 GTI - Sold

My guess is that they were detected but not chased - the car that detected them could have been heading in the other direction, or already responding to another reported incident. The issue could have been noted for attention later (166km/h on the M1 is crazy, but there are crazier things that go on).Originally posted by JustCruisn View Post
It is standard practice for the misconduct unit to get involved when an incident occurs a short time after contact with police.Nothing to see here...Comment
