Officers from the county’s Roads Policing Unit stopped the motorist and seized her Mercedes G Wagon last night.
A spokesperson for the police unit said her speed varied ‘between 100 and 130mph, measured to an average of 113mph’.
The unit tweeted: "The unsupervised provisional licence holder driving it claimed she was driving fast as she needed the toilet. So fast she missed the services.”
