Glad they caught him.

At some point does stuff like this become a criminal code offence or is it always limited to HTA ?

The ‘dangerous operation’ is a criminal charge not an HTA. Guy just earned himself a criminal record if convicted.

I see being 40 or 50 over in a 50 km zone as terrible behavior, not the same as being 50 over on the 407 where average speeds are 125 - 130.

But to be 123 kph over in a 50 is a completely different offense in my mind. This is where you should be looking at extensive suspensions or seizures and maybe even vehicle forfeiture.

I like how they didn’t even bother chasing him. Just follow him and nab him when he slows down or shuts the bike down. So much safer and easier.

I don't agree with vehicle seizure or vehicle forfeiture for speeding. This is a slippery slope to go down.

After conviction in court, that is not much different in my mind than a fine. I strongly disagree with roadside punishment as there have been many documented cases where police did not have sufficient evidence to support their charges (or fabricated them entirely).

We slid down that slope 14 years ago. I don't really care if the court sets his bike on fire, as long as he gets convicted first

Edit: missing word

Too late.

The guy is charged with doing 3 and a half times the speed limit in a residential area.
That's more than speeding, even before HTA172.
Charge him with dangerous, let him argue it down to HTA careless and a speeding ticket

Charge him with dangerous, find him guilty, and throw the book at him.

Click bait thread title, I was expecting OP running away from cops at 173km/hr , not some news outlet story . Disappointed.

Was it a residential? There's a lot of 50 kph zones now. I know of several that are 3-4 lane per direction that are 50kph.

Where does it say it was a male rider? Maybe she was late for work.

Where does it say it was a female rider? Maybe <your gender here> was out for a boot.
