A U.K. judge ruled that a 21-year-old was not guilty of dangerous driving after police clocked him at 149.9 mph in a Porsche Boxster. "He went fast for a short time only on a straight road with excellent visibility,'' the judge said. But some were disgusted by the decision. "If driving at 150 mph isn't dangerous driving, we don't know what is,'' said a representative of The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.
