14 DAY TRIAL // More and more clips posted on the very popular video sharing platform YouTube shows insane drivers who are speeding and recording themselves to become famous. IOL reports that a motorcycle rider who created a clip with him at about 300 kilometers per hour became famous through the YouTube platform after his clip recorded an impressive audience. According to the same source, it all happened in the Austrian countryside and more specifically, in Bregenz, Vorarlberg. At this time, the police officers are analyzing the clip in order to find any evidence that might help them close the case.
However, it seems like the investigations are evolving quite good and the biker might be sent to the judge very soon. "The investigations aren't looking too bad," a police spokesperson told APA news agency on Saturday, IOL reported.
This is not the first time when insane drivers or crazy bikers upload clips on YouTube. In the past, there were numerous similar cases but very often, the police officers were not able to fine the main actors because the videos didn't provide any valuable information about them. For example, a Brit driver was identified and sent to the judge but, because the authorities were not able to find the date of the recording, he was not fined. If you didn't know, the police fines a driver if the video is not older than 15 days.
It's quite obvious that YouTube tends to become the main source of any type of video content, no matter if it's legal or not. However, the authorities from all over the world are attracted by this system because they can close almost any case with the YouTubers' help. In the past, some officers turned to YouTube in order to post surveillance clips and to require users' details to identify and arrest the suspects.
