Case of PM's speeding motorcade adjourned

The case of five police officers and a civilian driver facing charges relating to the Prime Minister's high-speed motorcade through the South Island last year was adjourned today.

They were due to appear in Timaru District Court accused of dangerous driving after Helen Clark's motorcade from Waimate to Christchurch reportedly reached speeds of up to 140km/h.

The case has been adjourned until April 6.
