Police drop Guy Martin speeding investigation

Wed, 27 May 2015

Inquiries are complete and no further action will be taken against Guy Martin following claims he drove on open Island roads at drastically high speeds.

TT star Guy contributed to a Sunday Times Motoring supplement where he took an Aston Martin Vanquish for a test drive around the TT course in April.

In the article he spoke about reaching speeds of 180mph on the Sulby Straight.

Police say after seeking advice on the matter from the Attorney General's Chambers they will not be taking any further action.

They have issued a timely reminder to the public and TT visitors that the majority of the Island's roads are governed by speed limits, which are rigorously enforced.
