A teen is facing a stunt driving charge after a car was clocked at a ridiculous speed along the QEW in Oakville early Friday.

The traffic stop took place on March 23 at 12:58 a.m., say Burlington OPP.

That’s when the teen was allegedly clocked at 174 km/hr.

A stunt driving charge was laid, Sgt. Kerry Schmidt confirmed.

The vehicle was impounded for seven days and the teen also received an automatic seven-day licence suspension.

A similar incident along the QEW in Oakville on March 19 had another teen charged with stunting.

Such high speeds are “unacceptable,” said Schmidt.

The driver’s name hasn’t been released.
