Bugatti Chiron owner who did 259 MPH on Autobahn was criticized by German Transport Ministry

He was accused of putting road users at risk.

Radim Passer, a wealthy businessman, returned to the Autobahn in July 2021 to break his 2015 speed record of 402.5 km/h (250 miles per hour) in his Veyron. Radim Passer, a wealthy businessman, attempted a new speed record with the Chiron. The W16 was able to achieve 417 km/h (259.1 MPH) on a public road. The venue was an unrestricted section on the A2, which meant that he didn’t break any speed laws.

The stunt was not appreciated by Germany’s Transport Ministry, who posted the footage on YouTube a few weeks back. According to The Associated Press, local authorities released a statement to criticize the businessman who claimed to have a wealth exceeding $300 million according to Forbes. Radim Passer is accused of putting at risk other traffic participants on Autobahn. The Autobahn was not completely empty even though the fastest speed run occurred at 4:50 am so there were fewer cars. The Transport Ministry does not condone high-speed driving on public roads. It says it “rejects any behaviour in road traffic that leads to or can endanger road users”.

Even though he wasn’t actually speeding in the morning, the Czech Republic’s 33 richest person and real estate mogul is accused of violating the first clause of Germany’s road traffic law. “Anyone participating on traffic must behave so that no other person is harmed or endangered or obstructed, or inconvenienced more than it is necessary under the circumstances.” Germany’s Transport Ministry believes that all road users must adhere to road traffic regulations. This includes people driving hypercars with 1,500 horsepower electronically limited at 261 mph.Radim Passer released two videos in which he stated that safety was his priority and the circumstances must be safe before praising God for the “safety and good circumstances.”
