On March 28, 2017 at approximately 12:35 pm, a Frontenac OPP officer was conducting traffic safety patrols in the village of Sydenham in South Frontenac Township.
The officer observed a silver Cavalier exit a parking lot southbound onto Wheatley Street. The driver of the vehicle deliberately caused the vehicle's tires to lose traction with the roadway resulting in a yawing motion of the vehicle and what is commonly referred to as a "burn out" maneuver. There was visible smoke from the tires of the vehicle as it moved in a fishtail like motion. This maneuver was conducted on the public roadway within a few feet of a crowded sidewalk.
As a result the 17 year old male driver was charged with: Operate a Motor Vehicle While Performing a Stunt - Contrary to the Highway Traffic Act. His driver's licence was suspended and his vehicle was impounded, both for a period of seven days.
