A 21-year-old Nova Scotia man is facing charges after an RCMP officer clocked a sports car driving 248 kilometres per hour—more than two times above the posted speed limit.
An officer conducting traffic enforcement in Timberlea, roughly 20 minutes east of Halifax, pulled over a BMW i8 on April 29 that was allegedly travelling 138 km/h above the 110 km/h speed limit on Highway 103, the RCMP said in a press release.
