“I live and work in germany, I drive most weekends to my in laws some 60 miles away with my wife and 5 year old daughter in the car. I pass German police at 110 mph + and they dont bater an eye lid. Also if you stop at the services there are fathers with thier teenage sons on the back of thier bikes and they ride no slower than I drive. In Germany the law is comon sense, if its raining slow down, if theres a corner adjust your speed, if theres a junction a speed limit comes in place. why cant we have this in the uk? my wife had a driving lesson and the instructor had her drive at 180kmh (111mph). The UK is going wrong some where. very wrong. I'mm not sure if Iwant to come back!
Mr Bennett if you fancy a holiday come over to mine, drive as fast as you like (with in reason) and not get nicked!”

“who gives a monkeys the guy was out enjoying himself and got caught out we all like speeding its good fun i did 160 in a porshe in the outback of australia and would do it all again balls to u boring people who always live by the rules x and i know thats gonna pee people off! lol”

“This guy should have served his time. As a pedestrian injured by a reckless road user (i was in the pavement) and will be disabled my whole life due to someone like this. "don't know how I'll pay the mortgage" should have thought about that before committing the crime! Hey Big T, this wasn't just speeding..this was criminal speeding Dangerous driving and putting his son's life at risk.
The police who shot deMenezez were doing their job! Trying to stop the potential death's of numerous members of the public, in a fortnight of very high tensions, they carried out orders. This guy did this by choice, he endangered his own son, by choice, he committed a crime, by choice...could have stuck to the law, by choice, but chose NOT to. This country is too soft, if more got banged up then crime in general would fall!”

“I bet it did not take him long to get home from prison...”

“I bet Mr Bennett wishes he was a Policeman then he could ride his motorcycle at any speeds he wanted. To quote George Orwell "everyone is equal except some are more equal than others"
Quite apt he used PIGS as the leaders and the corrupt ones. "Do as we say not as we do"”

“This man should never have been sent to prison in the first place.
The offence he commited was one of a speeding offence, he did not injure or kill anyone and in my opinion put anyone's life in danger on a motorcycle built to do 190 mph. The judge is completely out of touch with reality and I think based his sentence on what "may" have happened but didn't, therefore he should have given him a hefty ban and fine and penalty points but certainly not a prison sentence.
I for one hope he has good luck finding employment and can now put this split second blip behind him.
Leave the bloke alone and stop making him out to be some sort of criminal as 98 per cent of all of us have broken the speed limit at some time or another, maybe by not so much, but the law has been broken!”

“This man broke the law and risked his son's life - he got what he deserved! And prison is supposed to be "bloody awful" - thats the point mate!! Hopefully now you will think again before breaking the law again.”

“The Boss,

for Gods sake the story is about a bike rider doing 122mph not about an illegal immigrant being shot because a group of police officers were told he was a terrorist about to blow up a tube train!”

“Why weren't the prosecuted, oh yes, they were POLICE acting on behalf of the public, typical old excuse.”

“The boss,
you don't get the point, Bennett was found guilty by a court, the police who killed De menzes were not prosecuted. A big, very big difference.”
