The incident comes on the heels of another over the weekend where another driver saw his licence suspended.
On Sunday at around 5 p.m., police say they stopped a car that was travelling at more than 50 km/h above the limit on Highway 7/8 in Kitchener.
Police say the same 21-year-old driver was stopped for speeding in February as well.
In Sunday’s incident, police say the driver tested positive for cannabis as well, which also leads to a licence being suspended.
