A Hamilton man is facing charges after Niagara police nabbed a speeder going 212 km/h on the QEW.

Police say a vehicle was observed driving aggressively and not signalling lane changes during heavy rush-hour traffic on the highway in Lincoln Wednesday night.

When police tried to stop the vehicle they say it accelerated to more than double the posted 100 km/h limit.

Officers eventually brought it to a halt in St. Catharines.

A 28-year-old Hamilton man is charged with speeding and stunt driving. His licence has been suspended for seven days and his vehicle impounded.

His name has not been released.
