License to Drive Off

Some people just can’t take a hint. Some of these people work for the Securities and Exchange Commission.
One driver who had his license revoked by an officer during a traffic stop got right back in his car and sped off, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
Police caught the man driving at more than twice the speed limit. Of course, this with under the rules of the metric system and if my calculations are correct, police caught the man breaking the sound barrier.
Police revoked the man’s license on the spot, and the driver immediately got back in his car and drove away. Police arrested him for driving with a suspended license. He offered to drive himself to the police station.

Sounds like something I would do.

I guess the word “suspended” was just too hard for this guy to understand.

“if my calculations are correct, police caught the man breaking the sound barrier.”
The article says he was caught speeding at 147km/h.
The speed of sound is 1,236 km/h
Has something changed in the article?
