Jamiroquai singer Jay Kay has been banned for six months after being clocked driving at more than 100mph. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/3630908.stm and my best bit "I would point out I was driving a 4x4 and not a fast sports car," he said. aparently he was stuck doing 30mph for miles so he had to take full advantage of the overtaking opertunity.
That's a shame, although he did break the law, and there's no leniancy for anyone else, Advanced drivers should perhaps be given a bit of leway? I'm not sure about this really...
"He was banned in 1998 after he was clocked at 111mph on the M40 in a Ferrari F40. Kay claimed he was racing home to stop a crazed fan burning down his mansion"
