Talking Garbage Truck Caught "Street Racing"

http://www.cbc.ca/cp/Oddities/080424/K042406AU.html

Garbage truck nabbed under street racing law near Goderich, Ont.
Published: Thursday, April 24, 2008 | 11:50 AM ET
Canadian Press: THE CANADIAN PRESS

GODERICH, Ont. - It's likely a first under Ontario's new street racing legislation.

A provincial police officer pulled over a fast-moving vehicle on Wednesday just east of Goderich near Lake Huron. It was a garbage truck and it was caught on radar doing 112 km/hr in a 60-kilometre zone.

The 58-year old driver from Clinton, northwest of Stratford, was charged with racing and with failing to inspect a commercial motor vehicle.

The garbage truck has been impounded for seven days and the driver has lost his licence for a week as well.

He will appear in a Goderich court on June 5 to answer to the charges and faces a possible fine of $2,000.
was probably racing a civic ...

... and won

Give the man a break. His wife was at home ******* the milkman and the neighbor called him to let him know. He had to get there quick. I bet the wife is now pregnant with the milkman's baby.
