Not only was the man issued a hefty fine for speeding, but his luxury vehicle was also impounded. In fact, Ridge Meadows RCMP cheekily tweeted that he’ll be getting a free tow truck ride. The impound will last for 7 days.
In a move to increase traffic safety, police recently increased penalties for drivers caught street racing.
