Police in Peterborough, Ont., say a man is facing stunt driving charges after they allege he filmed himself driving 150 kilometres per hour on The Parkway in a 60 km/h zone.
Police launched an investigation after officers were “made aware” of the cellphone video, and investigators were able to confirm the date, time, location and speed of the vehicle, police said.
“The video was posted to social media, and we were made aware of it,” a police spokesperson said, adding that no further information would be released.
On Monday, a 26-year-old was charged with stunt driving, speeding and using a hand-held communication device while driving.
