    RCMP in Maple Ridge say officers doing routine traffic enforcement saw a 2017 Lamborghini Aventador and a 2016 McLaren 675 speeding down the Lougheed Highway on Thursday.
     
     
    Police laser equipment showed both vehicles were going 138 km/h in an 80 zone.
     
     
    The drivers were stopped, the vehicles impounded and they were issued $368 fines.
     
     
    Police say both drivers were 22 years old and the driver of the McLaren is a novice in the graduated licence program.
