The man’s licence was suspended for 7 days and his truck impounded

A 63-year-old Stoney Creek man has been charged with stunt driving, police say, after he was clocked driving nearly 60 km/h over the speed limit.

Police say the man was spotted driving a GMC Sierra east on Mud Street around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday at a rate higher than the posted speed limit.

It was determined the man was driving 129 km/h in a 70 km/h zone, say police, so the man was stopped.

He’s charged with stunt driving and speeding.

The man’s licence was suspended for seven days and his truck impounded for the same amount of time.

Police say if a person is found guilty of stunt driving the penalties can include a fine between $2,000 and $10,000, up to six months in jail or a two-year licence suspension.
