'Blatant disregard': BMW driver stopped twice in 20 minutes by police

A BMW driver has copped a hefty fine after being stopped twice for two separate offences in the space of just 20 minutes.

The driver, who was pulled over in Saskatoon, Canada, going 108km/h in a 60km/h zone over the weekend and fined about A$790, according to Saskatoon Police Traffic Unit.

But the driver wasn’t done.

Police pulled the BMW over 20 minutes later after noticing the driver using a mobile phone and issued a fine of A$590.

"Same day, same car, same driver. Stop 1: 108 in a 60 zone near Preston & 108th, $776 fine," Saskatoon Police Traffic Unit wrote in a tweet.

"20 minutes later, stop 2: 25th St E, using handheld comm device (phone) while driving, $580 fine."

On Twitter, people were shocked over the incidents.

“Some people just don’t get it,” one man tweeted.

“Should be licence suspended for a month maybe then they will get it.”
