Funny that the swiss police car is a Volvo. It's 1 of 21 Swedish sold MB SLS AMG until June. What happens to impounded cars in Switzerland? Are they sold in Switzerland or? Do Netherlands still impound speeding cars? Remember that they toke a Opel Kadett GSI and a Ferrari Testarossa back in 1994.

This morning the local newspaper is telling about the story (in french : Il roulait à 290 km/h! | LeMatin.ch )

At 290 km/h how many distance it takes to stop that car ?
I can't find this specification
