THAMESFORD - An OPP officer doing patrols in Thamesford got a two for one special first thing this morning.
They caught two vehicles going in excess of 150 km/h in a posted 80 km/h zone on Dundas Street at 3:00 a.m. today. Both drivers had their vehicles impounded and driver licence's suspended.
The OPP is urging all drivers to take increased speeds seriously, no matter the time of day.
There have been ten occurrences this year alone on Middlesex County roadways with drivers being charged with stunt driving due to driving over 50 km/h of the posted speed limit.
In 2019 there was approximately 160 drivers charged with stunt driving for exceeding the speed limit by 50 km/h in Middlesex County.
The OPP will continue to enforce road safety, but need the motoring public to do their part as well. Enforcement and education is only one part of road safety.
