This PSA shows why diligence is of utmost importance while driving. If one visits http://www.ourboots.ca/ and clicks on EMS, one can see the devastating impact of a driver who fails to pay attention. Sadly, this occurs more often than I ever imagined. Maybe we should have dash cams in ambulances and forward the offences to the local PD! Imagine, a cash cow for the municipality and maybe, just maybe, some increased compliance from the motoring public.

I don't see why this is not part of the HTA where owners can be charged for failing to give way to emergency vehicles, kinda like blowing by school buses. Then again, an Ontario driver's licence may be obtained by opening a Corn Flakes box (especially in the GTA)... Also "traffic school" should be an option as an alternative "punishment" (or required) for certain offences like this one...

I have a lot of issues with the idea that speed measuring devices like radar and lidar guns are using computer generated simulations to test themselves that they are working properly. The manufacturer is making a claim that a device can test itself. Where's the proof that it works?
I was pulled over a couple days ago going down a steep incline on my way to Cobourg. In order to get up a hill in my vehicle, I have to go at least 90 or it gets stuck between gears and then when I was going down the hill I wasn't riding my brake or touching the gas, it just gained speed. When I…
