Lambton OPP lay five stunt driving charges as spring arrives

The arrival of warm, spring weather seems to be a factor in Lambton OPP's laying of five stunt driving charges in the last week.

Police said one driver was stopped travelling at over 200 kilometres an hour.

All five motorists face driver's licence suspensions and their vehicles were towed and impounded for seven days.

If convicted, they face fines ranging from $2,000 to $10,000.

Police remind motorists and vehicle enthusiasts to enjoy the sunny spring weather responsibly, and obey the speed limits.
