INdurham's Editorial Standards and PoliciesAlthough it has 60 in the number, 160km/hr is not appropriate in a 60km zone. This was on Anderson in @TownofWhitby . This rider faces several charges including stunt driving & loses the bike for 14 days + licence for 30 days. This is unacceptable behaviour. #drivesafe ^bb pic.twitter.com/8KQHi5zMBu
