Police in the Fraser Valley clocked an Audi and a Porsche travelling at double the speed limit March 30.
B.C. Highway Patrol – Chilliwack impounded a blue Audi and a rented black Porsche for travelling at the excessive speeds on Highway 1 near Bridal Falls just east of Chilliwack.
Police said the vehicles were moving at about 200 km/h.
Both drivers received tickets for excessive speeding and had their vehicles impounded for seven days.
That same day, the highway patrol took two other high-risk drivers off the road.
Officers served an impaired driver with a three-day immediate driving prohibition and impounded their vehicle for three days.
Another driver was caught driving while prohibited and was served with a court date notice in addition to their vehicle being impounded for a week.
Police served over 90 violation tickets for a variety of traffic offences throughout the day.
"Our B.C. South Coast Highway Patrol officers worked hard to keep drivers safe this past weekend and they may have prevented some traffic fatalities by taking these four high-risk drivers off the road," police spokeswoman Corp. Melissa Jongema said.
“If you witness any drivers excessively speeding, driving while impaired, or otherwise driving in an unsafe manner, please report them to your local police," she said.
