OPP caught him on Highway 420

A 25-year old driver from North York caught stunt driving in Niagara Falls given no leniency from police, despite asking for it

Police say it was a week ago yesterday, at around 9pm, when they clocked the vehicle flying down the 420, at Drummond Road, doing 176kms an hour.

That's an 80 zone.

Police charged the man with stunt driving, his driver's licence suspended for 30 days, and car impounded for 14-days.

Police add he asked for a warning, however, they say when you come to Niagara Falls, you follow the speed limit.
