Quick Response

It’s A Tractor, Officer - Not A Ferrari

A German potato farmer is fighting traffic police after they claimed to have clocked his tractor speeding - at 76mph. Thorsten Holck, of Irschenberg, Germany, was baffled when his 24mph farm vehicle was booked. He said: "I can guarantee it's no supercar."

Whaaat? You're kidding!
Surely the police have to feel pretty silly even attempting to make a case out of this!
