Another source reports only 185-MPH, so 203-MPH may not be a record after all.
That crash was broadcast the same day on iHeart radio
WMAL-FM. (Where I listen to domestic news--
delivered with humor--on the Chris Plante Show).
That report suggested (to me, anyway) that investigators had determined the car's speed from its on-board computer--so a 203-MPH speed
could be correct.
The sedan has 580-HP--
driving in the HOV lane--and was stolen. Police claim there was only one occupant, but suppose the passenger was not wearing his seatbelt, and has not yet been located?
