Even in the last days of last year, a roadside inspection took an unexpected turn after the California Highway Patrol caught a Rolls-Royce Ghost speeding.
This is not at all surprising, because it is known that there is no lack of power in the luxury sedan that has lived through two generations since 2009 and is about to receive a model update. The 6.75-liter V12 engine promises 571 horsepower and 850 Nm of torque, with which Rolls-Royce’s entry-level model accelerates from 0 to 100 in 4.9 seconds, and its top speed reaches 250 km/h.
As soon as they stopped the Rolls-Royce, the authorities immediately noticed that the driver of the vehicle might be under the influence of an intoxicating substance. Their suspicions were confirmed during the search of the car, as they found enough cannabis to press charges, but this was not the biggest catch, since
there was also a spider monkey in the Rolls-Royce.
However, in California, it is forbidden to keep primates as pets, so the barely one-month-old animal was first taken to the local animal protection office, from where it will probably be taken to a nearby zoo.
The unnamed person – who is currently in a county jail – must therefore be held responsible not only for speeding and driving while intoxicated, but also for possession of drugs intended for sale and possession of an exotic animal. is written the authorities.
