A man who told police he wanted to make sure his wheels wouldn’t fall off after a tire change has been charged with stunt driving.
Cambridge OPP say they caught him going 171 km/h on Highway 8.
In addition to a hefty fine, a stunt driving charge comes with a 30 day driver’s licence suspension and the vehicle gets impounded for two weeks.
“We suggest you install the wheels properly and retorque after driving a short distance,” OPP said on Twitter.
