A number of drivers have temporarily lost the right to drive after OPP charged several motorists with stunt driving.

The motorists were all pulled over for going 50 km/h or more over the posted speed limit in South Bruce Peninsula between May 22 and May 24.

The motorists were all accused of travelling between 135-145 km/hr in a posted 80 km/h limit, one of them on a motorcycle.

All drivers face a date in court, a seven-day driver's licence suspension, and their vehicles were towed and impounded for seven days.
