BURLINGTON, ON
Maybe they took a taxi home or perhaps the police took them to the local station and booked them for their offences. Whichever, two very expensive cars are sitting in the police pound where they will remain for the next seven days.
A Lamborghini Huracan valued by police at approximately $230,000.00 was impounded for seven days after being clocked at 135 kmh in a 60 kmh zone
On May 29th 2016 at approximately 4:00 pm, a Lamborghini Huracan valued at approximately $230,000.00 and a McLaren Spider valued at approximately $260,000.00 were stopped by Police at Guelph Line and Colling Road in Burlington after HRPS #3 District Response Unit measured their speed at 135 km/hr in a posted 60 km/hr zone.
A McLaren Spider, stunt driving with the Lamborghini was estimated to cost $230,000 it also sits in the police pound for seven days.
The exotic cars were impounded for seven days and the drivers’ charged with stunt driving.
The police media report did not release any names. They did say: “If you observe a vehicle being operated in a manner which places you or anyone else in danger, please call 911 for an immediate police response.”
Police loading $230,000 worth of car onto a flatbed truck to be taken to the police pound and held for seven days. Owner charged with stunt driving.
Someone obviously made such a call.
The people who were operating these vehicles obviously have far more money than brains to safely operate these expensive four-wheeled toys.
Would think given the money involved they could well purchase insurance regardless of price and drive again, after conviction.
Ideally have them both lose their license never to operate anything larger than a bicycle; and have them start from zero as if they never had a motor vehicle operator’s permit.
Oh and have the court sell those expensive wheeled toys as further penalty.
