    Dude you always wonder why the cops are such pricks to you... it's cause you go 160km (and you're trying to go faster) in an SUV that handles as good as an Oxe and cart. Seriously... slow down... don't speed... off-road!

    What kind of tires do you have? Make sure they're rated to go faster than 160 km/h...
