Two drivers pulled over in 80 km/h zones

Niagara OPP say two motorists have been busted for stunt driving.

The charges were laid earlier today in 80 km/h zones.

One of the drivers was clocked at about 150 km/h near a school.

In Ontario, anyone charged with stunt driving could get a fine up to $10,000 and up to six months in jail.
