In a post to X, the force revealed that the driver was caught travelling at 137 kilometres an hour in a 40-kilometre zone on the wrong side of the road. 

Police called the tow operator's actions "completely unacceptable," and subsequently charged the 27-year-old with speeding, racing a motor vehicle, careless driving, driving the wrong way, failing to properly wear a seatbelt and failing to stop at a stop sign. 

Excellent work !! I’ve seen these tow operators operate with little to no regard for public safety in there pursuit to get to an accident scene. Now I understand not all operators are like this and it maybe just a few who are giving the tow community a bad look. Great work again!
