“That’s 98 km/h over the posted speed limit,” OPP noted on social media.
The driver was handed a 30-day driving licence suspension and a 14-day vehicle impoundment. The driver also faces a minimum $2,000 fine, six demerit points and a one-year driving prohibition upon conviction.
“This is Canada Road Safety Week, and road safety is everyone’s responsibility,” OPP said in the release.
