This speeding driver could soon find himself in some serious trouble, especially since Alberta police just voted in favour of a resolution allowing officers to seize vehicles belonging to reckless drivers caught traveling 50 km/h above the posted speed limit.

According to police, they stopped the speeding 67-year-old Alberta man after he was seen driving upwards of 180 km/h along a stretch of highway near Black Diamond, AB. The man then attempted to creatively talk his way out of the speeding ticket by saying he was simply trying to dry off his freshly washed car. Looks like that poor excuse didn't hold up in court either, as the judge fined the man $800 and had his licence suspended for 45 days.

We're starting to think his real reason for speeding was to compete with the lead-footed grandmother who recently received four speeding tickets in three hours along the same stretch of road!

With Toronto making headlines as the worst city for speed traps and also being one of the three major Canadian cities named to the top 5 list of worst rush hour traffic in North America, it should come as no surprise to see Toronto streets making up most of Ontario's top 10 worst roads.

The roughest roads in the province were officially named by CAA, as part of their latest campaign aimed at getting more tax revenue devoted to road repairs and infrastructure. With Toronto streets claiming four of the top 10 worst roads, excessive potholes, poor repairs and shoddy infrastructure were among the most common complaints CAA collected from over 10,000 votes submitted from across Ontario.

"Voters have spoken loud and clear... Their concerns reflect the fact that our municipal infrastructure is in decay," CAA's Faye Lyons told reporters.

Car seizure is a common punishment for speeders caught in several Canadian Provinces including law breakers in Ontario and street racers in British Columbia. Although Alberta police currently have little recourse when it comes to car seizures and suspension, speeders and street racers may soon face much tougher laws specifically aimed at taking their vehicles away.

Similar to the existing legislation in Ontario and BC, Police chiefs in Alberta recently voted in favour of a resolution allowing officers to seize vehicles belonging to reckless drivers caught going more than 50 kilometres per hour over the posted speed limit. This would also give Alberta police officers the authority to suspend drivers' licences - both of which would last one week.

"There's too many people being killed on the highways and it's due to people driving 160-170 km/h and even 200 km/h... We just don't want to see people killed," said Edmonton police chief Rod Knecht.

Surprisingly, the police chiefs have indicated they would like to avoid making mandatory seizures, as they want to give officers the ability to use their own discretion when seizing a vehicle in order to accommodate circumstances. We can't help but wonder if this law would also apply to these police cruisers caught drag racing to Tim Hortons in Calgary?

We've seen a fair share of extreme road rage violence this year, from an angry Marine flipping out on a busy highway to several roadside brawls being settled with gun fire on more than one occasion. None of us are immune to the frustration that comes with driving, heck we've even seen video of an angry brake-checking cop causing a road rage fueled accident.

Well, consider this new viral video the fourth installment (and highly anticipated follow up) to the epic motorcyclist vs. driver road rage series, which has so far included a kick boxing biker, a violent Volkswagen driver delivering a senseless slap to a motorcycle rider and an outrageous fist-fighting duel between a Russian biker and taxi driver.

Click here to watch this speeding biker narrowly escape from a potentially deadly crash, only to respond by lashing out in anger at the surprised driver who dangerously pulled out in front of his motorcycle moments before. Remember people, two wrongs don't make a right.

In addition to proudly hosting the upcoming 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is also home to many young tuners and their extremely lowered cars. After watching last week's video of several ridiculous Russian tuners stopping traffic for a small speed bump, we simply had to share this similar clip from Brazil where a lowered car actually gets stuck while driving down the street.

Watch as these determined tuners try everything from rocking the small car back and forth to performing some FWD burnouts in attempt to free the trapped hatchback, as nothing seems to work. This strange struggle is also a major distraction to other drivers, as the unexpected road block holds up traffic when a few good samaritans stop and help too. The lesson to learn here kids is that cars riding this low may look cool, but also makes you look foolish when you eventually meet a bump in the road.

Flying cars are no longer a thing of the Sci-Fi future, as they clearly exist based upon the updates we've seen on Terrafugia's flying car after its NYC debut a year ago and the report of this flying car falling from the sky and crashing.

So it should come as no surprise to hear three companies in the Czech Republic have teamed up to produce a functional prototype of a flying battery-powered electric bicycle. The 'flying bike' was recently shown to the media in Prague, where it successfully took off and landed safely after a brief five-minute flight inside an exhibition hall. Pretty cool eh?

Although the working prototype is currently controlled by remote and demonstrated without live people on it, its designers say they are working on plans to have it operated and carrying real people in the near future.

It's finally Friday, the perfect time to look back at our most popular Autoblog Canada highlights of the week in case you missed strange sights like an escaped ostrich running through rush hour traffic, Justin Bieber's hideous leopard print Audi R8, and a stunt rider who crashes into a cop car. From breaking news and headlines to in-depth reviews and the original content, we obsessively cover the automotive industry like no one else.

Our most memorable moments from this week also include attending E3 for a mind-blowing preview of Forza 5 and playing Gran Turismo 6, experiencing some real-life racing at the Bridgestone Racing Academy and learning how to drive a monster truck, plus an awesome visit with Hennessey Performance to review the 2013 Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 SUV.

Click here to catch up and kick off the weekend with the automotive headlines and highlights you may have missed during the week.

Looks like Canadian superstar Drake (who recently bought a Bugatti Veyron) wasn't the only high profile celebrity seen with a new ride this week, as Justin Bieber was spotted driving a new leopard print Audi R8. After catching heat from a number of speeding incidents in Dubai, shooting flames at fans from his Lamborghini and even being told he should quit driving, it's quite clear Justin Bieber is still refusing to learn from his many automotive mistakes.

The offensive leopard print paint job is said to have cost Bieber quite a few bucks, as any reputable shop would likely refuse to ruin a perfectly fine Audi R8 in such bad taste (unless you paid them enough). We're also willing to bet whoever did the work would prefer not to be associated with the hideous supercar either. This poor Audi R8 is just another notch on Bieber's matching leopard print belt.

Most stunt videos of bikers speeding and performing dangerous moves on public roads ends with a crash or very close call. It looks like everyone got a good laugh at this reckless rider's expense, as the motorcyclist was caught red-handed by police after popping a wheelie straight into the rear of the officer's cop car!

Watch as the surprised biker inadvertently turns himself into police, as things get physical when the officer suddenly grabs the man. The entire incident was recorded by a fellow rider who was behind the wannabe stuntman during a memorial ride and his friends continued to ride past the roadside take down, clearly wanting nothing to do with his stupidity or the police.

Exotic supercars have always represented a way for auto manufacturers to showcase their latest technology, newest designs and advanced engineering. While most people can easily name today's more mainstream supercars, this episode of The Downshift is dedicated to shedding a little light on a few forgotten high performance vehicles which were ahead of their time.

Warren Mosler, founder of Mosler Automotive created some of the world's most groundbreaking automotive designs starting with the Consulier GTP. Never heard of the Consulier GTP? Well, in 1985 it was the first production car containing no structural metal and weighed an incredible 862 kg (1,900-pounds) powered by a turbocharged 2.2 litre Chrysler engine, yet it was still a total flop.

Mosler Automotive then went on to design and produce several more soon-to-be-forgotten supercars over the years, namely the Mosler Intruder and Raptor (based on the original GTP), before introducing the carbon fibre chassis, LS1-powered Mosler MT900 in 2001. The basic MT900 was later updated as the MT900S for 2005, with the MT900S Photon being its racing variant until production officially ended in 2011.

Hitting the track with a race-prepped Mazda MX-5 Miata sounds like an amazing experience, but hitting another racer, flying through the air and crashing hard is far from a fun day. Well, that's exactly what happened during a dangerous crash at Homestead Speedway in Miami during a recent 90-minute endure race.

"Unfortunately, I didn't see the Spec Racer Ford get turned around and once the MX-5 in front of me moved, there was nothing I could have done," said airborne Mazda driver Selin M. Rollan.

Judging by the shocking crash video footage of the Miata flying straight into and over top of the Ford racer, both drivers should consider themselves very lucky to have walked away unharmed. Sadly, the same can't be said for their wrecked race cars, as both vehicles suffered substantial damage based on what we saw from their respective on-board cameras.

The folks at Porsche sure know how to throw a good party for the legendary 911 (which, by the way turns 50 this year), as thoughtful birthday gifts continue to pour in from everyone including this awesome vintage photoshoot from close pal and fellow automotive icon Mini.

We can only assume the inspiration for this matching yellow gift came after seeing Porsche's very own amazing anniversary photos and hearing about its plans to take the classic 911 on a 5-star tour of Europe's best race tracks to celebrate.

According to Mini's accompanying press release below, "When major landmarks like a 50th come into view, it's traditional to look back over the birthday boy's childhood. Although the Mini and Porsche 911 may not be cars you would instinctively compare, there are one or two striking aspects of their history that have brought them together over time."

Every car enthusiast knows the Nissan GT-R is an amazing supercar capable of incredible (and scary fast) things. Knowing this, the crew at DragTimes recently released this video of the infamous Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12 in all its 1,700 horsepower glory, as its driver Jury set a new top speed world record (for a Nissan GT-R) at a blistering 382.16 km/h as well as a new record time for running a full mile in just 22.538 seconds too.

Oh, and if that wasn't enough... this video also shows the mighty GT-R AMS Alpha 12 blowing the doors off an exotic line up of other race-prepped supercars while setting its new record at the track including a Corvette ZR1 Hennessey, Porsche GT2, BMW M3 ESS VT2.

Speeding and reckless driving are considered major problems around the world, and the popular use of speed bumps has proven to be an effective way to deter many dangerous drivers from street racing through our cities.

But if you've ever driven or even owned a lowered custom car, chances are you've had some dreaded encounters with a few speed bumps similar to these four Russian men and their slammed sedan. Driving a car this low is clearly more trouble than it's worth, as you evidently need to carry a few friends and a trunk full of pre-cut wooden panels to ensure you can make it over even the smallest of speed bumps.
