A driver was charged with stunt driving after being caught speeding on Highway 401 near the Thousand Islands Bridge exit. On Tuesday afternoon, the vehicle was clocked at 167 kilometers per hour, well over the speed limit.
The Leeds County OPP responded quickly, pulling the driver over and issuing a stunt driving charge. As part of the penalty, the driver’s vehicle was impounded, and their license was suspended for seven days.
The OPP reminds drivers that speeding at excessive rates puts everyone on the road at risk and will result in serious legal consequences.
