A reckless biker who goaded police and clocked almost 200mph on a motorway has been jailed after officers used footage of the offences recorded on his helmet’s GoPro.
Amin Belechguer, who uploaded videos to Instagram of himself blowing kisses at pursuing police, pleaded guilty to 22 counts of dangerous driving between July 2024 and June 2025 across Kent, Essex and London.
Amin Belechguer rode his bike at a speed of 189mph on at least one occasion
At his sentencing hearing at Maidstone Crown Court, Judge Catherine Moore was told the 29-year-old had reached 189mph on one occasion.
Prosecuting, Alban Brahimi said: “The defendant has shown an utter disregard for the safety of others and his own.
“It is fortunate that there are no accidents in his case. His manner of driving would be dangerous in a simulation or movie, let alone real life.”
He explained that multiple videos showed Belechguer speeding up and slowing down quickly, weaving between traffic, using one hand and continually looking over his shoulder.
Footage from June 8, 2025, was played to the court, which showed the 29-year-old reach speeds of 185mph on the A282, A2 and A28.
On July 7, 2024, he reached 112mph in a 50mph zone on the A406, where he was also seen undertaking other vehicles and running red lights.
He was caught driving along the coastbound carriageway of the A2 at Gravesend and M2 coastbound in excess of 140mph on August 17, 2024.
Belechguer also reached speeds in excess of 150mph in a 50mph zone and 188mph in a 70 mph zone, including on the M2 London-bound at Junction 6 near Faversham.
Other incidents showed the motorcyclist encouraging others to speed, ignoring road markings, and revving his engine at spectators in an effort to “show off”, Mr Brahimi said.
The barrister added: “There is really no consideration for other road users.”
“It is not a case where the defendant goes about conducting himself in this way; he also posts this online and encourages others in terms of his behaviour.”
Belechguer, under the name of MrWoods666 and describing himself as “the police force’s favourite 200mph problem”, has 22,000 followers on Instagram where he posts videos of his antics.
He has shared multiple clips, including footage of him goading police and blowing kisses.
Mr Brahimi added that Belechguer, of Poynders Gardens in Clapham South, was not only dangerously driving on motorways and public roads, but would also attend car meets.
He said: “There is a deliberate decision to ignore the rules.”
Belechguer’s Kawasaki ZX 1000 was seized by police on his arrest and described as being in a “dangerous condition” with a loose chain, glass missing from a wing mirror and the silencer removed from the exhaust.
However, James Harrison, defending, argued there was no evidence of how long the bike had been in that condition and claimed removing the silencer would not make it more dangerous.

He also said there was no evidence that what his client posted online led to others driving dangerously or actively encouraged them to do so.
Mr Harrison said Belechguer did not want to “downplay the reason for offending”, stating he had a “good insight into his motivations”.
He told Judge Moore the former HGV driver is “someone who gets the taste of adrenaline” and an “additional thrill by goading officers”.

He added: “He has accepted he has made a series of choices and engaged in behaviour and was aware of the consequences of that.
“It is simple: Belechguer accepts, understands and understood there were serious consequences.
“When one takes a step back, there were no injuries or damage caused; that is an important headline.”

Mr Harrison made the case that in the majority of incidents the most vulnerable road user was the biker, formerly of Gillingham.
Passing sentence, Judge Moore said: “You arrogantly believed the rules of the road were for other vehicles and not for you.
“It was through sheer luck, not through skill, that no one was injured or killed by your behaviour.
“You made a conscious decision to ride the way you did.”
Although she acknowledged he had “taken responsibility” and “reflected” on his actions, Judge Moore said the offences were “so serious only a custodial sentence can be justified”.
Belechguer was therefore jailed for four years and disqualified from driving for 11 years and four months.
A deprivation order, which strips a person of their rights to their property, was also made for the motorcycle.
