Racing stunt in Alliston costs York Region man his ride
A racing stunt in Alliston cost a 35-year-old York Region man his ride over the weekend.
A member of the Nottawasaga OPP detachment was patrolling County Road 10 just before 2 a.m. Saturday, July 28 when the officer approached a black Nissan travelling south toward Alliston.
While stopped at County Road 10 and Highway 89, the Nissan took off at a high rate of speed after the light turned green.
The officer followed the vehicle and clocked it travelling 160 kilometres per hour in the 80 km/h zone.
The car was pulled over and the driver was charged with stunt driving. His licence was suspended for seven days and his vehicle was impounded for seven days.
He will attend a future court date in Barrie.
