(KAPUSKASING, ON) – An 18-year-old driver is facing a stunt driving charge after performing dangerous maneuvers in full view of an Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) patrol vehicle.
On March 1, 2025, at approximately 3:00 a.m., a James Bay OPP officer was conducting traffic patrol in Kapuskasing when they observed a pickup truck exit a gas station parking lot onto Government Road while drifting their vehicle. The vehicle then drifted across both lanes completing a full 360-degree spin in the middle of the roadway.
Police stopped the vehicle a short distance away. As a result, an 18-year-old from Kapuskasing has been charged with:
- Drive motor vehicle – perform stunt – intentionally spinning the vehicle or causing it to circle without maintaining control
The accused’s driver’s licence has been suspended for 30 days, and the vehicle has been impounded for 14 days. The accused is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice on June 24, 2025, in Kapuskasing.
