00:00Did you see the speed time advantage you passed him at?
00:02No.
00:04If you did, would you have slowed down?
00:08Potentially, yeah. I didn't even know how fast I was going.
00:11Honestly to God, I did not know I was going that fast.
00:15I don't know if my colleagues explained, but we've had information to say that this vehicle
00:21has been driving at 140mph on the A1 at some point in the day.
00:30Have you been driving this vehicle on the A1 today?
00:33Erm, I don't know. I haven't had any calls from it, no.
00:38I've probably already asked you this the other day, but nobody else has had access to this vehicle
00:42this afternoon.
00:49Because I'll be honest with you, it's been clocked at 140mph on the A1
00:56by a speed cam van.
00:59Have you been driving on the A1?
01:01Not from what I recall, mate, no.
01:03Not from what you recall?
01:04Right, so let's just go with now and then, mate.
01:06I'm under arrest, aren't I?
01:084051. You're under arrest, alright, on suspicion of dangerous driving, OK?
01:13So you do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention one question
01:17or something which relates to that in court. Anything you do say, it may have given an evidence.
01:21Alright?
01:22You've got it out of your pocket, Lewis.
01:24I cannot catch a break.
01:27Do you know the speed limit of a motorway for a car?
01:30Yeah.
01:31What is that?
01:3270mph.
01:33OK. How busy were the roads?
01:35It wasn't busy at all, really.
01:37OK.
01:38There was no cars there, no cars at all in front of me, as far as I could see.
01:42How would you describe your driving, driving at 140mph?
01:47Yeah, surprising. I didn't think I was going that fast.
01:52I wasn't being careless because I was paying attention, but when you say I was going that fast,
01:58I'm more scared of how fast I was. I didn't realise I was going that fast.
02:01OK.
02:02When you're in a car that fast and you put your foot down and you're there within seconds,
02:07I wouldn't really say it's dangerous, I'd say it's more careless of someone's putting that position in the car,
02:12it's like so fast.
02:13It felt like I was going maybe 80, 90 a swing.
02:16Which, to be fair, you still put it in the speed limit.
02:18Yeah, but it didn't feel like I was...
02:20So Lewis, similar to things, you say you're driving careless but not dangerous in your opinion, just to clarify.
02:26Yes.
02:27Careless, not dangerous, OK.
02:29What would make that dangerous?
02:31Is it out of intention, he's paying?
02:34So we're still going with careless, not dangerous in your opinion?
02:37Yeah.
02:38OK. So, we've got no further questions for you, Lewis.
