A driver now faces nearly thirteen-hundred dollars in fines after he was caught by RCMP going more than 180 kilometers an hour with a baby and a toddler in the back seat.

RCMP say the man was pulled over after he was spotted speeding on the Trans-Canada Highway yesterday morning near Carberry.

They also say the baby was in a proper car seat, but the two-year-old toddler was merely sitting in a booster seat.

The driver received a 992 dollar speeding ticket and was also charged with driving a car when a child is not properly restrained, which is a 298 dollar fine.
