In a social media post shared Saturday morning, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) wrote that the man is facing charges for speeding and impaired driving.

Police accompanied the post with a photo of a dark gray BMW sitting on a flatbed tow truck.

Officers say the driver’s car will be impounded for two weeks and his license will be suspended for 90 days.
