Superior East OPP have been kept busy with fast drivers, laying stunt driving charges twice over only thirteen hours.
The first incident occurred around 12:30 Tuesday afternoon on Highway 519 near Dubreuilville, where an eastbound vehicle registered a speed of 144 kilometres an hour in a posted 80 kilometre an hour zone - the driver, a 41-year-old from Dubreuilville, was stopped and charged with "race a motor vehicle - excessive speed" and "operate a motor vehicle without insurance".
The second incident occurred around 2:40 Wednesday morning, when an officer observed a vehicle travelling at 153 kilometres an hour in a posted 90 kilometre an hour zone on Highway 17 near Wawa - that driver, a 31-year-old from Quebec, was charged with "race a motor vehicle - excessive speed".
Both drivers have had their driver's licences suspended and the vehicle impounded for seven days, while the drivers are scheduled to appear in Wawa's Ontario Court of Justice next month.
