Gumball 3000 in the Netherlands

Gumball Team 73 Porsche Turbo Impounded

We already wrote two updates about the mayhem for the Gumballers in the Netherlands last night: Xzibit lost his drivers license and the Team 73 Porsche Turbo got impounded. This morning the Dutch police released a statement that they took 7 drivers licenses and impounded two cars. The second car that got impounded was pulled over on the way to the checkpoint in Amsterdam and the driver lost his license, his co-driver took over but when he did the same as his partner-in-crime on the way out of Amsterdam the police took the car. All the licenses were revoked because of speeds in excess of 150 km/h. The Dutch police used 14 visible and 7 undercover police cars to secure save passage of the Gumball 3000 through the country.

In ten days the justice department will decide if the drivers that lost their licenses and cars will get them back straight away or they stay with the Dutch police until the court date.
