How fast can the police drive?



Sant'Agata Bolognese is the home of Lamborghini. It's a small country town about 30 minutes from Bologna, and quite close from where I currently work.

History tells that Ferrucio Lamborghini, a wealthy tractor manufacturer that confronted Enzo Ferrari with some complaints about one of his automobiles. Enzo dismissed his complaint with "What does a tractor maker know about cars?". A year later Ferrucio founded his car company.

Quite frequently I pass by (they pass by me) Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Maseratis, since all these manufacturers are headquartered around Bologna. I regularly see a blue and white Lamborghini belonging to the Italian police, the other day he speed my me but I was fast enough to take a photo of it. It seems that the Lamborghini Polizia rotates around several cities, but regularly goes to Sant'Agata for maintenance.
