God willing, two nuns in northern Slovakia caught on camera speeding managed to get home, or to the church, safely and on time.
The sister, accompanied by another nun, was pushing her Skoda Fabia with religious conviction to around 160kph, or 100mph.

Plausible? The nuns were stopped on a dual carriageway at Quincinetto, near Turin and an hour's drive from Pope Benedict's summer home at Les Combes.
They had heard that Pope had slipped and fractured his wrist at the Salesian convent where they live and immediately got into a car to try to visit him.
