Ballsy stuff. Not sure how much the racing overalls would help the driver in a crash though.
How about not having a sig at all?

Interesting that the GPS speed is higher than the speed displayed in the car

Traffic was very light, that must have been stupid O' clock in the morning. 417km/h is around 260mph. In a car. On a public road. :shock:
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

I'd have enjoyed it more if his lane discipline had been a tad better. Just sat in the fast lane (😉) like a proper road captain. He should have indicated and pulled into the middle lane 😂😂

That's New Zealand down the bottom for scale.

edit to add this about the lightning strikes:

Yep pretty alarming - we heard the boom in the living room and wondered what the hell was going on. Local weather group on FB showed a video where streams in California were rippling upstream as a knock on to the shock waves too. Looking so far like no fatalities either. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
