Back in the golden era of Usenet, quite a few people who hung out in rec.bicycle.racing would post pictures of their speeding tickets, received when on a bicycle.
In theory, I would think that any motorist could panic and swerve into the oncoming traffic. Perhaps there are many incompetent drivers in SA. That may point to the licensing authority for granting licenses to incompetent drivers.
The skateboarder is very skilled in my opinion. If I was foolish enough to attempt same act, I would have wiped out in quick order.
I think they want to punish him for spoofing the speed scamera and making them look foolish. A statist can not tolerate being mocked.
I used to skateboard a lot when I was young. Was actually half decent at it, but even better on BMX. I could, and maybe still can, ride half pipes and ride other features. Anyhow, we used to do what we called “Butt Thrashing.” It consisted of what this guy is doing but we were sitting down. Tell ya’ll what.. When you get going over around 25 mph a whole new set of factors come into play. Main one being speed wobbles. This dude is absolutely amazing. To be able to do that standing up is unreal.
Also that the speed limit can be broken with nothing more than gravity.
My first recorded Clover hunt!

Oh my. Amazing. Liked how he hit the “school zone” at top speed but then braked in the crosswalks. Dude lives on the edge.
Of course he is now facing arrest apparently:

Absolutely Sick!
They nailed him for “speeding”!
