Western Australian police have called out a "stupid" Ford Mustang driver after he was clocked speeding at 190km/h along a notoriously dangerous stretch of highway.
The Indian Ocean Drive is known for having a disturbing number of serious and fatal crashes, which is why officers were so shocked that a motorist would take such an idiotic risk on this dangerous stretch.
The 29-year-old male driver was caught doing 190km/h along the highway near Nilgen, north of Perth, on Saturday.
"It is hard to believe that with all the recent publicity around serious and fatal crashes on Indian Ocean Drive, and all the publicity about the work being done to make the road safer, including increased police patrols, that people are still willing to put themselves and others at risk by making dangerous and stupid decisions to speed," WA Police posted on Facebook.
The police labelled the act "190km/h of stupidity".
