Millionaire Reached 257-mph With His Bugatti Chiron On A No-speed Limit Road, Slammed For Endangering Other Road Users
When Czech millionaire got slammed for driving his Bugatti Chiron to speed of 257-mph on a no-speed limit road in Germany.
German govt said it “rejects any behavior in road traffic that leads or can lead to endangering road users.”
One of the fastest hypercars, the Bugatti Chiron worth $3m has a top speed that is electronically limited to 261-mph.
Back in 2022, Czech real estate tycoon Radim Passer was slammed by German Transport Ministry after driving his Bugatti Chiron to a speed of 257 mph (414 km/h) on the no-speed limit Autobahn.
Mr Passer posted the video on his popular YouTube channel on January 9th 2022, though he claimed that the stunt in his Bugatti was undertaken 5 months earlier on the six-mile, three-lane strip that has no speed limit.
After reaching the speed, which is just 4 mph short of Chiron’s electronically limited top speed of 261-mph, Radim was seen taking his hands off the steering wheel in celebration.
“We thank God for the safety and good circumstances, as we were able to reach the speed of 414 km/h!” Passer wrote in the video’s caption.
“The section of the A2 was a 3 lane, 10 km straightaway with a light descent in the middle, so there was visibility along the whole stretch. Safety was a priority, so the circumstances had to be safe to go,” he added.
While criticizing the Czech millionaire’s behavior, German Transport Ministry said it “rejects any behavior in road traffic that leads or can lead to endangering road users.”
“All road users must abide by the rules of the road traffic regulations,” the ministry wrote. Just because sections of the highway don’t have a posted speed limit doesn’t mean you can go as fast as you want, the government says.
A clause in the German highway code stipulates that :
“Anyone participating in traffic must behave in such a way that no other person is harmed, endangered or obstructed or inconvenienced more than is unavoidable under the circumstances.”
