24-Year-Old Motorcyclist Charged for 202 km/h Speeding on 90 km/h Road in Spain

Mossos d'Esquadra officers from the Alt Pirineu i Aran Regional Traffic Area have filed criminal charges against a 24-year-old motorcyclist with Andorran license plates for driving at 202 km/h on a 90 km/h stretch of the C-14 road in Ribera d'Urgellet, Alt Urgell.

The violation took place at 10:57 a.m. on Wednesday during a routine speed check. Radar caught the motorcycle far exceeding the threshold for a criminal offense against traffic safety, prompting officers to immobilize the vehicle on the spot. The driver must appear before the on-duty investigative court in La Seu d'Urgell when summoned, according to a Mossos statement.

The recorded speed more than doubled the limit, elevating the case from an administrative fine to penal proceedings. No further details on the driver's identity or driving history have been disclosed.

Authorities emphasized the dangers of such excessive speeds on public highways, with enforcement efforts ongoing in the area.
