The Grey Bruce Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have charged an individual with stunt driving in the Municipality of Grey Highlands.

The officer observed a motor vehicle to be travelling at over 165 km/h in a posted 80 km/h zone, and conducted a traffic stop on it.
As a result, the 22-year-old accused from Markdale is charged with Drive motor vehicle - perform stunt - excessive speed. The accused also received a 14-day motor vehicle impoundment, a 30-day licence suspension, and a provincial court date to answer to the charge.
