Ralf Schumacher Zooms Into Speed Trap

Updated 10:56 AM ET April 24, 2001
VIENNA (Reuters) - Formula One racer Ralf Schumacher, who recorded his first victory in a grand prix a week ago, was caught in a speed trap on an Austrian motorway, local police say.
Schumacher, winner of the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola on April 15, was caught Sunday driving 105 mph in a 62 mph zone in the western Austrian province of Salzburg, where the German lives.

Schumacher had to pay $650 as surety since he was not carrying his driving license with him.

Head of Salzburg traffic police Friedrich Schmidhuber told Austria's APA newsagency the German would be treated like any other offender who in such a case could count on losing his license for 14 days.
