The most severe penalty kicks in at 50k (30mph) over the limit which will get your car impounded.

Yes,I do recall that having your vehicle impounded was also mentioned.But is that the only penalty? I could swear that the sign also mentioned a $10,000 fine.I remember it because I just about dropped my dentures after having seen it.I was driving from Detroit to Buffalo so maybe it was another highway...but it was a major one,the equivalent of one of our Interstates.

Yep, the impound is in addition to the $10,000 fine. That law was passed to address racing and stunt driving.

As a general rule, most people in Ontario drive 10-20k (5-15mph) over the limit because demerit points start at 16k. Most drivers on the 401, a 100k zone, do 120-130k. On two-lane highways posted 80k most traffic is 90-100k.
