They say an officer saw a vehicle speeding on a road in Mono, Ont., on Tuesday, and pulled him over. 

Police say the officer then realized that the Toronto man has numerous criminal prohibitions from driving. 

They say the 60-year-old also has two Highway Traffic Act suspensions. 

He was charged with operation while prohibited, driving under suspension, speeding, using a plate not authorized for the vehicle and driving without insurance. 

He's due in court in December.
