The first driver was caught while heading through the village of Caesarea. Officer were camped out near Regional Rd 57 and Hwy 7A when a car allegedly raced by at 170 km/h.
Officers stopped the car in the village and charged the driver, 18, with stunt driving and unnecessary noise. His car was impounded for two weeks and his license was suspended for 30 days.

Once stopped, police saw open bottles of alcohol in the car. Closer inspection discovered three large bags of cannabis, holding around 30 grams between them.
This driver was ticketed up for open alcohol, cannabis offences, stunt driving and failure to lower high beams. Their car was impounded for two weeks.
