Listen to daily commentary from provincial news director Sarah Mills
Sarah Mills says air travel used to be the height of sophistication, but now flying is... a little bit gross. Why do rul...
Police have heard every excuse in the book to justify speeding, but on Wednesday a driver gave Corman Park police a unique explanation.
Officers were patrolling on Grasswood Road when their radar clocked a vehicle at 159 kilometres per hour in an 80 km/h zone.
Police observed signs the driver had been consuming alcohol and performed a breath test which indicated the driver was over the provincial legal limit.
The driver stated he was driving that speed because he was attempting to “knock the rust off the brake rotors.”
This driver was issued a $1,170 speeding ticket, a $360 alcohol ticket, a seven-day vehicle impoundment and a three-day licence suspension.
