The 32 year-old parcel delivery driver from Montral, Quebec was charged with:

• Stunt driving in relation to excessive speed.

The operators licence was suspended for seven days, and the vehicle was towed and impounded. The accused is scheduled to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Cobourg at a later date.
