Just because you're running late, doesn't mean you're allowed to speed.
BLANDFORD-BLENHEIM - The Oxford OPP busted a speedster on Highway 401 in Blandford-Blenheim.
According to a post on the OPP West Region X page, officers spotted a westbound vehicle going 166 kilometres per hour Saturday afternoon.
When they asked the driver why they were going so fast, the driver said they were running late.
