On January 10th at approximately 5:50pm a Wellington County OPP officer was conducting radar and stop sign patrol at the intersection of Side Road 10 and the Fourth Line East in Centre Wellington Township.

The motor vehicle continued travelling at an extremely high rate of speed and was locked on radar at a speed in excess of 135 km/h.
A 17 year old driver from Guelph-Eramosa Township has been charged with Stunt Driving-Excessive Speed and Disobeying a Stop Sign.
The defendant is scheduled to appear in a Guelph Court on May 12.
Their vehicle and drivers license were seized for a period of 7 days.
