Ferrari impounded for speeding on Sea to Sky Highway

staff report
September 8, 2020 12:06pm

Squamish RCMP impounded a Ferrari for a week for speeding on the Sea to Sky Highway.

The Ferrari was stopped by police near Porteau Cove, where it was going at 189 kilometre per hour in an 80 km zone.

“Well Mr. Ferrari didn’t know we were doing traffic enforcement all weekend with our traffic and seasonal teams,” Squamish RCMP said in a tweet.

On Sunday, a Lamborghini with a super car rally was involved in an accident that left six people injured, including two children.

Police confirmed that the silver Lamborghini travelling north was part of the Diamond Hublot Rally. The police are still investigating what made it cross into oncoming traffic.

Squamish RCMP are investigating both the drivers of the Range Rover and the Lamborghini for Dangerous Operation of a Motor Vehicle.

Meanwhile, Squamish RCMP are also stepping up enforcement of seat belts in the area. A ticket for not wearing one is $167.

Squamish RCMP also remind that the fine for distracted driving is $368, along with four penalty points.

Upon first infraction, a driver will pay a further $252 ICBC driver penalty point premium. The total for a first infraction is $620.

“Distracted driving now causes more fatal crashes in BC than impaired driving. When driving, take a break from your phone,” Cpl. Angela Kermer said.
