A young driver is facing charges after travelling more than double the speed limit just 10 minutes after earning his G licence.
York Regional Police posted video of the interaction to social media, saying the driver was travelling 131 kilometres an hour in a 50km/h zone.
In the video, an officer pulled over the speeding vehicle and can be heard telling the driver they were going to lose their licence and vehicle.
The driver can be heard telling the officer the vehicle was their father’s before arguing they thought the speed limit was 90km/h.
“I just got my G licence,” they said. “I have a clean record.”
The officer responded by saying “not today.”
“That’s a crazy speed, man,” they said. “You just passed a school.”
