A biker was caught doing 142mph during a weekend of high speeds recorded on Highland roads.

Police Scotland caught two other bikers at 117mph and 139mph on the B817 near Ballachraggan, north of Invergordon. A car was clocked at 90mph.

Officers also recorded three Porsche drivers speeding at 99mph on the A890 near Ledgowan, near Achnasheen.

The force said the motorists had chosen to disregard their own safety and that of others.

A police spokesperson said: “Driving or riding at these speeds drastically reduces reaction time.

“Excessive speed is one of the five most prevalent causation factors in serious and fatal collisions.

“All of these drivers now face serious penalties.”
