A 56-year-old man faces charges after a car was driven along a sidewalk in Brampton – a dangerous manoeuvre that was caught on video.
Peel Regional Police say the footage of a “reckless” driver went viral after it was shared online earlier this month.
“A video posted online showed a white Lexus sedan using the sidewalk to bypass traffic, narrowly avoiding pedestrians,” police said in a statement Wednesday, explaining officers from their Safe Roads Team began investigating the video and determined the incident occurred along Bovaird Dr. W., near Gillingham Dr., on June 11.
Investigators subsequently identified the suspected driver and arrested him on July 9.
