Spectacularly Foolish Driver Tears Across Wet Mountain Pass at 180 km/h — And Now Pays the Ultimate Price

Photo 2 of 5

During the incident, the weather was downright miserable. Rain poured down in sheets. The road was drenched and dangerously slick. Anyone with even a shred of common sense would slow down — especially on a route that twists across mountain ridges more than 1,000 meters above sea level.

French law is crystal clear about bad weather: where the speed limit is normally 130 km/h, it drops to 110 km/h the moment it rains. The Audi driver didn’t care. He was clocked at a stomach-turning 179 km/h — nearly 70 km/h over the wet-weather limit. Under conditions where a single puddle can send you aquaplaning straight into a guardrail, it’s borderline insanity.
