Ontario Provincial Police say an Ottawa driver whose previous stunt driving charge from May is still before the courts is now facing a new stunt driving charge.
His charge was one of four OPP laid Sunday night on Highway 417 in Ottawa’s west end. Images shown by police show drivers clocked at 160 km/h, 175 km/h, 173 km/h and 156 km/h.
The driver facing the repeat charge needed help from his mom to get home, OPP said.
“This is his second charge for stunt driving since then! The previous charge is still before the courts. At least he didn’t flee police this time, and was lucky enough to have his mom come pick him up at the scene,” police said on social media.
“Each charge comes with an automatic roadside licence suspension of 30 days and a 14-day vehicle impound.”
The penalties are too lenient.
For a kid, maybe. For an adult that’s 30 days of trying to figure out how to get to wlrkt
