Here's one for the "what not to do" files. Turns out that a speeder posted a video on YouTube of his escapades, namely taking his car up to 150mph on public roads where the limits only reach about 62mph. Police in Norway found the video and managed to track him down following an electronic trail he left online, reports Reuters. He was then slapped with a $1300 fine. Ouch.

There are a number of videos on YouTube of people speeding on the roads. One such video is a BMW M6 apparently doing 340km/h on a publich highway in Greece. You can watch it after the jump.
