Police report the officer was conducting speed enforcement on Mayfield Road, near Summer Valley Drive and spotted a red 2011 Volkswagen going 128 km-h in a posted 60 zone. A 31-year-old man from Brampton was charged with racing a motor vehicle. The car was impounded for seven days.

They support street racing/stunt driving legislation and other legislation aimed at saving lives and taking drivers who engage in these high-risk behaviours off the road.
