The law states for over 50kmh of the posted speed limit the car is impounded at roadside for 7 days your D/L is Suspended for 7 days and there is a usally a large fine (around 2 grand)

"The OPP officer who was charged with stunt driving in February is returning to provincial offences court this summer for a trial.

Det. Const. Heidi Fischer, who was clocked in her unmarked cruiser at 165 km/h on Highway 403, was charged with driving 50 km/h or more over the posted speed limit.

Fischer is set to return to court for a trial July 21 at 10 a. m."

But dont worry it catches all

I haven't heard anything about the impounded car but did see a red on Chemong Road in Peterborough this evening. It appeared to be going the speed limit.

I just talked to the lad at the impound yard and he confirmed the story..
The Camaro was a silver one and the GM guy was nabbed doing 150Kph in a 70 zone (about 95Mph in a 45)..
The above 7 days impound thing is correct and it sounds like it must've been earlier the car was taken as it's already been returned to GM after staying the req'd days..

Hey Keith...get those cool BBQ pics posted here!.

That's funny, for now. I wonder how long before the states pass a law like this.

I dont think that the USA is as stupid as to create such a law. Common sense and judgement trump stupid rigid laws.
Going from 80 kilos to 60 kilos on deserteted roads is a tax collecting rip off. And the Cops("tax collectors") that enforce it.
