A young driver will have to go to jail after extreme speeding offences caught on her own phone.
The 25-year-old from Glarus, who was driving her father’s sports car, was filmed reaching speeds of up to 238 km/h on the A3 near Lachen.
The footage also showed dangerous stunts inside the car.
The Federal Court has upheld a four-year prison sentence.
The driver had claimed she was “releasing emotions” at the time.
She’ll also have to pay court costs of CHF 3,000.
