A Kelowna motorcyclist with a penchant for extreme speeds and lengthy wheelies has found out that filming your every move isn\u2019t wise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The motorcyclist had evaded capture, but when police finally caught up with him months after receiving their first complaint, his GoPro camera provided them with all the evidence they needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead of a single ticket for excessive speed or dangerous driving, Christopher Blair Muir\u2019s video footage provided police with weeks of his reckless driving antics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On March 30, Muir appeared in a Kelowna courtroom from custody as Crown prosecutor Catherine Rezansoff read out a lengthy list of Muir’s driving offences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe travels at 253 kilometres per hour in a 60 kilometres per hour zone,\u201d the Crown told the court. \u201cThe GoPro captures the speed at Glenmore Road near Union Road.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The prosecutor continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe drives over 180 kilometres per hour in the north end of downtown Kelowna, 184 kilometres per hour on Wendell Place, which is a 50 kilometres per hour posted speed. He travels at 194 kilometres per hour on Richter Street between Wendell Place and Cambridge Avenue,” Rezansoff said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
