Police caught a driver going 135 km per hour in an 80 km per hour zone on Centre Line Road near Concession 7 on Sept. 28.
The driver, a 20-year-old Clearview Township resident, has a G2 licence and there were three other young people in the vehicle.
“At that speed a simple lack of attention could have caused a serious collision with tragic consequences. Fortunately for this driver and his passengers, police did stop them and instead of a possible disastrous outcome, all made it home safely,” said Const. Mark Kinney.
The driver is charged with stunt driving for going more than 50 km above the speed limit and the vehicle was taken away for seven days.
The young man is to appear in court in Wasaga Beach on Nov. 13.
