Toronto police have charged a 24-year-old man after they say a car hit speeds of more than 200 km/h on a Scarborough street early Monday.

The incident occurred just after 2 a.m. when an officer saw a 2015 Acura whizzing north on Victoria Park Ave. near McNicoll Ave.

The car’s speed was measured at 203 km/h in an area where the speed limit is 60 km/h.

The motorist had his license suspended and his vehicle impounded for seven days.

He was charged with stunt driving a vehicle over 50 km/hr over the speed limit, speeding, and racing a motor vehicle, police said in a news release.

The man is scheduled to appear in court on Mar. 29.
