The defendant appealed his conviction for stunt driving under s. 172(1) of the Highway Traffic Act, having been found guilty of operating a motor vehicle at 112 km/h in a 60 km/h zone.
The defendant raised arguments challenging the jurisdiction of the legislature to regulate motor vehicle operation, the jurisdiction of the Justice of the Peace to hear the matter, and the constitutional validity of the stunt driving provisions.
The court rejected all arguments and dismissed the appeal, upholding the conviction.
