Not bad, except that the reading is actually ~60 kilometers per hours (km), not 60 miles per hour. Converting km/h to mph is 37 mph. Still fast enough but hardly 60 mph.

It's strange that even the author of the article also missed that little detail. Smile

In the bottom left side of the video, when the cyclist is drafting behind the trucks, the squad car is doing @ 100 Kph which is @ 60 Mph.
It doesn't look like th squad is gaining that much. The article below the video pretty much explains it all.
