      An Australian teenager was recorded going 215 km/h in a Jaguar F-Pace on a major highway.

      The driver was stopped by the police three times in less than four hours for speeding.

      Authorities are requesting that her Jaguar SUV be permanently confiscated by the state.

      In a sequence of astonishing events, a 19-year-old girl from Sydney, Australia, was pulled over three times within just four hours, had her license revoked, and her vehicle seized, all during a single trip. Her rationale? She claimed she was trying to visit family in Melbourne.

      Jade Muscat's high-speed journey began on April 12 of this year when she was caught by police exceeding the speed limit by over 20 km/h (12 mph) in a 110 km/h (68 mph) zone along the Hume Highway, a key route between Sydney and Melbourne. She was fined and allowed to carry on with her trip.

      However, just an hour later, she was again stopped by Highway Patrol officers for a second time. This time, she was caught driving her flashy Jaguar F-Pace at 215 km/h (133 mph), nearly double the speed limit. Muscat had her license immediately suspended and received a court attendance notice for her dangerous speed and for exceeding the limit by more than 45 km/h (28 mph).

      License Suspended, Plates Confiscated

      According to 7News, police also confiscated the number plates from her Jaguar F-Pace and placed a confiscation notice on the SUV’s windshield. However, this did not deter the 19-year-old. Approximately two hours later, police received reports of a black SUV without number plates weaving through traffic on the same highway.

      Caught Again at 201 km/h

      Police quickly responded, positioning themselves ahead of the speeding Jaguar and used a radar gun to record her driving at 201 km/h (125 mph). They pursued her for several minutes until she eventually decided to pull over.

      She admitted to knowingly driving with a suspended license and stated that she had altered the number plate confiscation notice that the police had affixed to the F-Pace. She told the officers she needed to get to Melbourne to see family.

      Muscat now faces multiple charges, including driving with a suspended license, tampering with a number plate confiscation notice, driving dangerously, exceeding the speed limit by more than 45 km/h, and operating a vehicle during a confiscation period.

      She is expected to appear in court in August, and police have recommended that her Jaguar be permanently forfeited to the government.
