CAUGHT ON VIDEO: Motorcyclists Take Over GTA Highways
Published August 10, 2017 at 11:51 am
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.
