CAUGHT ON VIDEO: Motorcyclists Take Over GTA Highways
A group of motorcyclists wreaking havoc on GTA highways over the long weekend is being sought by Ontario Provincial Police.
“Not only were they driving dangerously and aggressively, at some time they came to a dead stop on the highway, causing congestion, chaos, frustration for motorists and really putting everyone at risk on the highways,” said OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt.
Numerous complaints came in about the group along the Queen Elizabeth Way, Highways 403, 401, 409, the Gardiner Express Way, and the Don Valley Parkway between 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Sunday.
“There could’ve easily been crashes,” said Schmidt.
Aerial video footage was released by police on Wednesday.
“We will continue to relentlessly pursue and investigate these riders until we have a successful conclusion,” said Schmidt.
Anyone who saw the riders or has dashcam footage or photos is asked to contact OPP at 416-317-8250 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
