A Saskatoon man is facing a charge of dangerous driving after witnesses reported a vehicle traveling at more than twice the speed limit on Eighth Street Sunday evening.

Police stopped a vehicle being driven by a 29-year-old man at approximately 8:20 p.m. after witnesses reported a vehicle traveling at speeds exceeding 120 km/h and making unsafe lane changes while eastbound on Eighth Street from Dufferin Avenue.

As part of the traffic stop the driver's vehicle was seized under provisions of the Traffic Safety Act.

The accused is scheduled to appear in court Monday on the charge.
