A 26-year-old man from Montreal received a $2,143 fine and 24 demerit points after being stopped for traveling 185 km/h on Highway 20 on September 18, 2026. Officers from the Montreal highway control station recorded the speed as 115 km/h above the posted limit and issued the ticket on the westbound stretch of Pullman Boulevard.
The driver was pulled over by highway patrol while traveling west on Pullman Boulevard, a segment of Highway 20 that runs through the city. The posted speed limit for that section is 70 km/h, meaning the vehicle was moving at more than double the allowed speed. The enforcement action followed standard procedures for extreme speed violations, which call for immediate citation and the assignment of demerit points.
Under Quebec traffic law, a fine of $2,143 is applied for speed offenses that exceed the limit by more than 100 km/h. In addition to the monetary penalty, the driver was assessed 24 demerit points, a level that can lead to license suspension if accumulated with other infractions. The citation reflects the province’s policy of imposing heavy penalties to deter dangerous driving on major thoroughfares.
Montreal police regularly monitor Highway 20 for compliance with speed regulations, especially in areas where traffic flow and safety are a priority. The recent stop demonstrates the ongoing effort by the highway control station to enforce limits and reduce the risk of high‑speed collisions. The driver’s case serves as a reminder that exceeding speed limits by large margins triggers significant financial and licensing consequences.
