+1
Unless the left lane person saw the cruiser (lights on or not) and being responsible moved over to the left lane and slowed down to avoid the vehicle on the shoulder.
You try to do the right thing and you STILL get hosed.

Re: Want BIG engine sound?

I'm sure this is just a start. I look forward to down-loadable effects that you can switch on the fly.
Though I would probably have it set steady at "early 60's Ferrari V12".
Thank god I'm immature and can get joy from a silly gadget like this :mrgreen:

OK, but I have 6 cars, so you better bring a lot of boots! LOL

Re: Recently disappointed in two officers - Story and questions

Remember when you were 6 and there was always that 1 or 2 kids in the sandbox that you tried not to annoy because you KNEW they were likely to throw sand in your face? Ya, well some thing's never change ;)

Unfortunately, they DO have the right to impound and make your life miserable just because you accelerate faster than a normal rate. I'm still ...

Re: The system works - it beat me down until I gave up.



The best deal for speeding is 10 minutes before the court opens. The Crown will find you. If not, find him/her yourself. Ask that the officer be pointed out as proof he is in court that day. It's almost assured that you can get 15-over ($60 and out the door, no points, no insurance hit).
That's what I plan to do. Court date is today, I'll be ...

Re: Falsely accused of hitting a car while backing from driveway

I had a neighbor deny nailin' my car once. The tire tracks in the snow made him shut up real fast, LOL. He paid me $1,000.

Re: The system works - it beat me down until I gave up.

In my experience, you don't get much of a deal from the Prosecutor BEFORE the trial date.

Re: When officers break the law...

Ive kinda lost interest in the whole "HTA" thing over the last several months. Starting a small business in this province is an all-consuming task that has dominated my attention span. So accident statistics, court rulings, new HTA statutes, etc. have become a bit of a blur to me.

But Im still out on the roads every day and I DO still think about ...

Re: ???

I think the bus only has the right-of-way to the first lane though, not all the way to the next lane over (centre-lane).

Re: Pedestrian deaths spike in GTA

Death Race 2000 should be an essential watch by all citizens. It was a staple for us teenage boys when it came out in '75.

To this day, I still categorize bad judgment by pedestrians by the points that would be awarded to the driver.

Believe it or not, I'm NOT making light of this tragic series of deaths. I really DO think placing this movie in ...

Re: 13(2) Obstructed number plate violation - need advice

By reading the statute above, I'll assume my plate is technically illegal, while buddy beside me is legal.

Re: Regulations Concerning Railway Crossings

... must stop if the sign is all red with white lettering I assume? The sign at the tracks down the road from my house is yellow with a smallish red octagon with black "stop" letters below it. Everyone ignores it including the local police.
