The biker gendarmerie Nozay (Loire-Atlantique) intercepted, Friday, November 15, 2019, a motorist for speeding circulating on the RN 137, the Rennes (Ille-et-Vilaine) -Nantes (Loire-Atlantique).

A passenger by her side
Arrested at Puceul (Loire-Atlantique), the driver was also no longer a holder of his driver’s license, cancelled for 10 years, reports the police on their Facebook page.
What also prevented him from buying a car “that he obviously could not secure and drive with a passenger by his side”.
Summoned to the Criminal Court
Without a profession, he is currently in a state of legal recidivism for “having already committed identical facts in 2016”, specify the gendarmes.
In fact, his vehicle was confiscated and the man will have to answer for his behavior before the Nantes Criminal Court in 2020.
