A 21-year-old man will head to court later this month after police say he was clocked going nearly double the speed limit on an Alberta highway.

On Friday, traffic enforcement officers recorded a black Infiniti sedan driving 181 km/h in a 100 km/h zone on Highway 21 near Fort Saskatchewan.

Police initiated a traffic stop and the driver was given a mandatory court summons.

Mounties are reminding drivers to slow down and obey posted speed limits.
