Portuguese driver arrested in Spain at 218 km/h on the A-62

SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 10:00

A driver of Portuguese nationality was arrested in Spain after being caught traveling at 218 km/h on the A-62 motorway, in the area of Carpio de Azaba, province of Salamanca. The case occurred during a speed control operation on Spanish roads. Local authorities intercepted the vehicle traveling well above the permitted limit on that road. The driver was identified and arrested by the Spanish security forces present at the scene. The speeding recorded represents more than double the usual limit on Spanish motorways, which is generally 120 km/h.

Why this matters

The Portuguese reader is directly affected because national drivers traveling by car to Spain are subject to these infractions, which can result in arrests and high fines. The article alerts to the severe consequences of speeding in Spanish territory and serves as a warning for those intending to cross the border.

Rare snake surprises breeders by having two heads capable of controlling the body equally

A two-headed ball python was born at a breeding facility in Eugene, Oregon (USA), and surprised breeders by demonstrating that both brains can equally control the shared body — something rare, since in most cases of dicephaly one head tends to be dominant. Both heads can drink water, flick their tongues, and react to touch independently, with the body responding to each one. The breeder Justin Stewart, 36 years old, told Creatorzine that he doesn't know if the heads are aware of each other, but stated: "They don't seem to mind it."
