Taxi Street Racing in Canada! HAHAHAHA.. That was my first impression after I saw this video. You guys probably don’t see or hear this often. Canadian police officers seized the vehicles of two motorists for racing on Yonge Street in Toronto.

When we say street racing, you’d probably expecting import cars or muscle cars battling on the street? but nothing as we except that these two drivers were racing their Chevrolet Impala… A taxi cabs!

We don’t really know who the winner was (the police didn’t state it in the video ) from the Beck Taxi versus Royal Cab derby nor if they managed to actually complete the quarter mile on the public road, but one thing for sure, The canadian news sites reported that the two cabbies driver were formally charged and had their licenses suspended for one week.

If convicted, they also face a fine between CA$2,000 and CA$10,000. Yes, that may hurt their pocket big time! LOL
