Brisbane Water Highway Patrol was conducting speed enforcement along the M1 Motorway at Somersby on Tuesday, October 22, when their radar detected a motorcycle travelling at 143km/h.
Police took off after the rider, observing his speed to be increasing as they moved into position behind him, checking his speed at 200km/h when he was stopped at Ourimbah.
The 56-year-old man was spoken to by police and he apologised for his speed.
Police issued a penalty notice for Exceed Speed Limit by more than 45km/h which came with a $2,959 fine and six demerit points.
The rider’s licence was immediately suspended for a period of six months and his number plates were also seized and surrendered to Service NSW for a period of three months.
