Driver pulled over by police north of Toronto

Police forces across Ontario continue to deal with drivers charged with stunt driving and excessive speed.

Yesterday afternoon, police stopped a driver just north of Toronto, for doing 158kms an hour... however, this wasn't the first time.

After entering the driver's licence into the system, police found 103 prior traffic convictions.

In another case, police stopped a 21-year old driver from Kitchener on the 403, near Eglington, clocked at 197kms.

Police say the driver told them he was speeding because the road was empty.

These are not all the cases police post to X.
