Hello all

Hey folks. New forumer here.
Just curious to hear a few opinions on the following video taken at a photo enforced intersection.
As you can see, the light was still yellow for a fraction of a second as the camera-car entered the intersection (crossed the stop line), but it was close.
I drive a Honda Civic and we all know how those are when it comes to theft. On my driveway my brothers car was stolen twice and once broken in to. Also a few other cars have been stolen on my street. I have an alarm and all that. But say my alarm was going off and I ran outside and fought off the…

Hi, recently I was driving home around 2:30pm from the bus stop I drive to in order to bus to school. I was traveling down Kennedy just past 19th seatbelt on, doing the speed limit. About one and a half kilometers past the intersection of Kennedy and 19th a fox sprinted across the road. I swerved…
Swerving lanes?
Just a curious question that came to my mind during my drive to school. I was on my way, heavy traffic as usual during rush hour. Traffic was moving at approx. 40km/h in a 60 km/h zone. All of a sudden I see a black car doing approx. 60 km/h swerving through lanes. My question to you guys is, what charge could be laid if an officer pulled him over?
Careless, Dangerous? Thats all i could think of off the top of my head.
Re: Swerving lanes?
Stunt Driving: Section 172 HTA,
Regulation 455/07 Section 2 (1) 3 iii "repeadedly changing lanes in close proximity to other vehicles so as to advance through the ordinary flow of traffic while driving at a rate of speed that is a marked departure from the lawful rate of speed".
Driver's licence will be suspended for 7 days, vehicle gets towed and impounded for 7 days, minimum $2,000 upon conviction. Must pay towing and impounding fees, licence re instatement fees after the 7 day suspension. When all that is done, the insurance company will really put the screws to the driver...
Re: Swerving lanes?
Stunt wouldn't be laid. It has to be a "marked departure from the lawful rate of speed"
You indicate that he was going 60 km/h in a 60.
Depending on the circumstances, failing to signal and possibly careless based on the totality of the incident.
Re: Swerving lanes?
Sorry, I read it wrong...Decatur is correct...
Re: Swerving lanes?
He signaled every lane change, so that wouldn't be laid. Sorry for leaving that out. As for the totality of the incident, does an accident have to occur for careless to be charged? Or can it be just someone driving stupidly?
