Speeding can cost you a car in BC
British Columbia is fed up with high speed drivers. Starting September 20 2010 a charge of excessive speeding will cost you a mandatory impound of your vehicle.
The new punishment will work this way:
- First offence - seven-day impoundment
- Second offence - 30 day impoundment
- Any further offence within a two year period - 60 day impoundment.
The plan is to get the high risk driver who is consistently driving significantly over the speed limit off the road.
