Salman was warned by his police bodyguard Ravindra Patil not to drive at a speed of 90 to 100 km per hour as there was a turning ahead or else the vehicle would meet with accident but he did not pay heed to his advice, Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate V S Patil noted last week in his order, a copy of which was made available today.
Salman's lawyer Dipesh Mehta told PTI that the actor would challenge the order, given on a Maharashtra Government plea, in the Bombay High Court soon.
