GODERICH, Ont. - It's likely a first under Ontario's new street racing legislation.
A provincial police officer pulled over a fast-moving vehicle on Wednesday just east of Goderich near Lake Huron. It was a garbage truck and it was caught on radar doing 112 km/hr in a 60-kilometre zone.
The 58-year old driver from Clinton, northwest of Stratford, was charged with racing and with failing to inspect a commercial motor vehicle.
The garbage truck has been impounded for seven days and the driver has lost his licence for a week as well.
He will appear in a Goderich court on June 5 to answer to the charges and faces a possible fine of $2,000.

I wonder who he was racing? A dump truck? Maybe a Cement Mixer?
Also, The new "legal definition" of Street Racing is officially out of hand..
