A young driver from California received an introduction to Canadian traffic laws this week he probably won’t soon forget.
On Wednesday afternoon the 20-year-old driver of a rented Lamborghini Huracan, was pulled over by Delta police for excessive speeding travelling at 155 km/h on Highway 99.
“Regardless of the type of vehicle you drive, going that speed in unsafe and illegal,” said Delta police on its Facebook page. “The driver learned this lesson the hard way as he watched the vehicle get loaded up onto a tow truck.”
According to police, after being issued a ticket for excessive speed ($368) the driver caught a ride with Roadway Towing to the impound lot where the vehicle will stay for the next several days. The daily rental fees are approximately $1,000 per day (USD) and still have to be paid as do the storage fees at the impound lot.
“Delta police continue with enforcement to make our roads safer. Many of us won’t be driving a Lamborghini, but all of us need to remember to slow down and drive safe.”
