Speeding Beemer Ignores School Bus

A Chatham man has lost his ride and licence for a week after police say he ignored a school bus with its lights flashing.

Officers were conducting radar enforcement in the area of Talbot Trail near Erieau Rd. around 7am. That's when a black BMW was clocked going 119 km/h in a 60 km/h zone while the bus was picking-up grade school children.

The 35-year-old driver has been charged with stunt driving and failing to stop for a school bus.
