"Giving police a watertight explanation as to why he was travelling so fast, he said: "I think the speedo on the car, which is new, is faulty.""

Right, so he accidentally slipped up to 185mph, thinking he was only doing 70...?

I like the Swiss income/speed calculation, although I expect someone will be along in a minute to say it contravenes his human rights or something...

pretty reckless, a lengthy ban would surely inconvenience him too

Just been chuckling about that. Sorry, but why didn't he just pop over the border into Germany to floor it?

"They said he was travelling so fast it took him some distance to stop."

What a ridiculous sentence.

Yes, I hadn't thought about it, but it is. What they mean is, 'some considerable distance...'

Apparently there's about 71000km of road in Switzerland. At 300kmh he could drive the whole lot in 10 days, the nob.
Actually it's a good job they don't do this as an on-the-spot fine as there's not many of us that carry £650k around in cash.

Well they usually confiscate the car as a down payment
