Toronto Police figures show that from March 23 to April 27 there has been a 600 percent increase in stunt driving incidents when compared to the same time period last year. There were 32 in 2019 and 222 in 2020.
These types of incidents are not uncommon in Toronto’s west end.
A gathering of more than 200 vehicles was broken up by Toronto Police last weekend close to Queensway and East Mall. An officer said that the meet-up looked like something out of a "Fast & Furious" movie.
Drivers at the scene were reportedly participating in driving that could fall under "dangerous operation of a motor vehicle," which can involve up to $10,000 in fines and 10 years of jail time.
No arrests were made by Police who said that the drivers were "part of a known stunt-driving group in the city."
There is an ongoing investigation into Sunday’s incident.
