Ontario Provincial Police officer had her licence pulled and her cruiser impounded after being accused of violating the province's street-racing law while on duty.
Ontario law allows police to speed in the execution of their duties, Inspector Dave Ross said. An officer was pulled over on Jan. 31 along Highway 403, clocked at 165 km/h in a 100 km/h zone, the OPP said yesterday. An investigation determined there was no call or assignment requiring the officer to drive that fast, Insp. Ross said.
Detective Constable Heidi Fischer was charged under the Highway Traffic Act on Friday with driving more than 50 km/h above the posted limit. Her unmarked police cruiser has been impounded for the week.
