vehicle-impounded-for-excessive-speed

A 48-year-old Surrey man was fined $483 for excessive speeding, and the Ferrari he was driving was impounded for seven days.

A recent enforcement initiative by the Langley RCMP has highlighted a dangerous case of excessive speeding in a residential neighborhood near Wagonwheel Crescent and 56th Avenue.

On May 24, 2025, officers observed a red Ferrari travelling at 124 km/hr in a posted 50 km/hr zone, with a second radar reading of 123 km/hr recorded just 97.9 meters away. This level of speed in a residential area poses a significant risk to public safety.

A 48-year-old Surrey man was fined $483 for excessive speeding, and the Ferrari he was driving was impounded for seven days.

Driving at such excessive speeds in neighborhoods where families live and children play is completely unacceptable, said Sergeant Zynal Sharoom of the Langley RCMP. We take these violations seriously and will continue our enforcement efforts to keep our roads safe.

Throughout the month of May, Police across British Columbia are focusing on reducing high-risk driving behaviours. We urge drivers to slow down, remain focused and make safe choices while driving.

Lethbridge police chief accused of breaking COVID rules has complaint dismissed

A police oversight board says it has dismissed a complaint that a southern Alberta police chief allegedly broke public health restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

An agreed statement of facts says Mehdizadeh and the chaplain were masked and properly socially distanced throughout the lun
