OC [Australia] Driver goes well over the speed limit

Cop comes up on the opposite side of the road at quite literally the perfect time. I cut out the time it took the cop to catch up.

He says "no f'in way" at the end. Probably surprised he wasn't the one.

Or maybe he was pleasantly surprised the cop caught the guy who was obviously speeding

Bit of everything lol. I mainly pulled over so the cop could go past if it wasn’t the guy behind, but then pleasantly surprised they pulled someone over, and relieved it ain’t me.

I was doing the speed limit, it’s a 60km/hour zone. Plus there’s cars in front, an orange car turns into another road when I slow down. I didn’t have a reason to think it’s me considering I hadn’t been speeding but still the thought “is it me???” crossed my mind lol.

But the car that was eventually pulled over (behind the cam car) was closing on the cam car, meaning they were going faster?
