TIMBERLEA – A 19-year-old Upper Tantallon man has been charged with stunt driving, had his car seized and his license suspended for seven days after being caught driving 200 km/h on Highway 103 on Saturday night.
RCMP said the car was spotted travelling on westbound Highway 103, between exit 3 and 4, around 11:50 p.m. Saturday and was immediately pulled over.
On top of having his vehicle seized and license suspended for ‘stunting’, the newly-licensed driver is also facing a $2,422 fine and six demerit points.
A stunting offence is automatically laid when a vehicle is travelling more than 50 km/h over the speed limit.
