Speeding star cops ticket

 
 

Updated: Tuesday, 04 December 2007

A Nelson policeman has done what some of the fastest motocross riders in the world couldn't do this year - catch a speeding Josh Coppins. The highway patrol officer was patrolling on the Moutere Highway last week when he clocked the international motocross star riding a Triumph motorcycle at 122kmh. When the officer recognised the Motueka-born Coppins, he asked for his autograph, apparently for his son who is a big fan, and then promptly wrote out a $170 ticket for speeding.
