The Ottawa Citizen




It might not seem like there’s a speed limit on Highway 401 at times.

But there definitely is, and it’s well below the 186 km/h a 33-year-old driver from Toronto area was travelling when he blew by a couple of Ontario Provincial Police officers on Saturday morning near Gananoque.

“There is no speed limit on the 401,” the driver complained when police finally caught up to him.

The officers told the driver the limit was 100 km/h as they wrote out a stunt-driving ticket, impounded the vehicle for seven days and suspended the driver’s licence.
