Driver clocked doing almost double speed limit in hurry to get home

Pizza no excuse to speed

Talk about a pizza lover.

One Victoria driver is facing fines and demerits after being pulled over doing twice the speed limit in a neighbourhood known for its distaste for speeders.

CTV News Vancouver Island says a tweet by VicPD indicates the driver was clocked doing 69 km/h in a 30 km/h zone near Cook Street Village over the long weekend.

The driver's excuse for the big hurry was he “didn’t want his pizza to get cold.”

Now instead of a less hot piece of pie, the driver is facing a $196 fine and three demerit points on his licence.
