ABBOTSFORD (NEWS1130) – A couple of 20-year-olds have had their cars taken away after Abbotsford Police say they were street racing late last night at speeds up to 150 km/hr.
Constable Ian MacDonald says an officer caught the men on Mount Lehman Road and also handed them hefty fines for excessive speeding.
“In light of the estimated speeds… [this was] probably the best outcome that they could have had,” says MacDonald.
“These two… should have known better, and hopefully that might have scared them a little bit and the loss of their vehicles might be a reminder of what is a completely unacceptable driving behaviour.”
MacDonald says the area they were caught is densely populated and the pair could have put people in real danger.
