One more Skiing death in Ontario this year and it will be the same number of deaths used by Cannsfield to sell the Street Racing law to the public!

Who would've thought ski resorts could have produced so much carnage, when they're only open for 4-5 months a year!

And yes, I have spun my tires this winter, but not intentionally. The act requires intent to fall under the definition of stunting. Obviously, this can be misinterpreted by an officer as intentionally spinning tires if I keep it up for too long (e.g., getting out of deep snow), but we have to put some degree of trust in our officers. We pay them to make these kind of judgement calls - some of them will make mistakes and some of them are dicks, but all of the officers I have come into contact with have been reasonable with good attitudes.


The act requires nothing, all is needed is the police officer and his word.

The Government put trust in the Police, not me!

Who in the hell would trust any officer from Peel Region, tell me you would, I need a laugh!

I have seen the "lose traction" one used as a stunt...mind you it was a good one.....


guy turns from one road to another, hammers the gas spinning around the corner, loses control, goes over the curb, across the lawn and into a house (and not the garage :wink: )

WOW :shock:


Do you remember the vehicle involved? My cousin did something similar - turning right on a red, and the car behind didn't like how long he was stopped. Honked at cousin, cousin overreacted and gave it too much gas. His 4Runner did a few circles, hopped a grass median, and ended up on someone's lawn. He had two worn tires in the back, but two good tires in the front (he thought the 4Runner was FWD).

no traffic lighst involved.....turning from a thru road onto a sideroad, both roads paved. Was a pickup, plus a little village, so 3-4 witnesses watched it from a convenience store.

Fascination with police lights?


It was last month, just after a police officer was shot and the same weekend the battery of this cruiser died in the middle of the train tracks.

Thankfully no one was hurt, N is for Neutral and P in this instance would be for PUSH it!
