More Bad Press For Skyline Owners

A P-plate driver has been charged following a pursuit in country Victoria.

A police divisional van at Rocheseter attempted to intercept the 1989 Nissan GTS coupe as it passed them at high speed on the Northern Highway shortly before 8pm.

The powerful Nissan reaches speeds close to 190kph before the pursuit ended five minutes after the pursuit began as the Nissan's driver slowed down at Echuca.

The 27-year-old driver, from Alfredton, was arrested without incident and his car impounded.

He was charged with reckless conduct likely to cause serious injury, failing to stop for police, speed dangerous, exceeding the speed limit, driving an unregistered vehicle and failing to display P-plates.

He was bailed to appear at the Echuca Magistrates Court on September 29 this year.

The guys a retard, but did they really need to mention that it was a Skyline? Would they have pointed out the car if it was a 1989 Magna?

Doesn't matter whether they mention Skyline or not. It's not gonna give name bad to anything.

There were a few other news before where 2 cars which is clearly mentioned in the news as high power Commodore had a drag racing on the street ended up one of them or both getting into accident. And there were other news where they mention the car involved is a Magna on another case.

It's just news. mentioning Skyline in it is a fact, not an attempt to tarnish anything.

Any car can do that speed...they never mentioned how long it took him to get there

[KURAUN]

remap or aftermarket ecu will fix that

[BASHO]

I note that they forgot to mention that the handbrake was on and the car was in reverse.

I'm not overly worried as a tool is a tool regardless of what they drive- & I agree 190? wot happened to the speed cut so it maybe the news paper sensationalising to make themselves look better- not that its eva happened b4- its normally 2day-2nite who are the clueless ones who never let the facts get in the way of a good story not murdochs own baahahahahaha

story from last night, notice they mention "Honda Prelude" but only name the Suzuki by brand. I'm guessing it comes down purely to what's mentioned on the incident report.

[DC33VN]
