Extreme Speed Results in Dangerous Driving Charge

Officers with the York Regional Police Road Safety Bureau arrested and charged a man with the criminal offence of Dangerous Driving after he was found driving 146 km/h in a 60 km/h zone in the City of Vaughan.

Speeding continues to be a problem on our roads. It is a major factor in many motor vehicle collisions and is often an aggravating factor in tragic incidents that result in death and serious bodily harm.

Some speeds are so egregious that a traffic ticket or summons is insufficient to deal with the gravity of the situation. When warranted, York Regional Police officers are prepared to lay criminal charges.
