Re: New "Taxi" Service in Halton

No, he was busy intimidating witnesses and blackballing underlings

When his OPP career is over, which might be within a year or two, Fantino's put his name in the hat to run for the Mayor of Vaughan. I'm not kidding, either. Wonder how much of a chance he has. It's the same municipality that elected Michael DiBiase, who crashed his car while ...

Re: Insurance Issues...

I.E. AIG made some bad investments and needs a bail-out.


AIG did more than that. They were underwriting a lot of the subprime mortgages and other high-risk things that the Wall Street "experts" were hyping as good ways to make money. They weren't strictly an insurance company, in that they had several divisions in addition to their insurance ...

Re: Insurance Issues...

Put the load on rails!

I'm all for that. Railways are safer and more fuel-efficient.

Even though I live in Toronto and take it where the Sun don't shine with no lubrication, I can understand this particular factor. The higher the traffic density the higher the risk. South of the border you can get away with 30,000 which wouldn't cover a ...

Re: 107km in 60km zone

Unless there was a significant amount of blowing dust or sand (and I mean a LOT), the radar equipment would not be affected. Wind alone does not affect radar.

47 km/h over the limit is a big deal as far as insurance is concerned. At the very least, fight the charge and if nothing else, try to plead it down to something less. Send the ticket in ...

Re: New "Taxi" Service in Halton

For Pete's sake, which clown came up with the idea of using a taxi as a ghost car? :x What's next? A ghost car masquerading as a Tim Horton's delivery truck? Maybe they can get a cement mixer or a transit bus and deck it out with the light package. :shock:

Would hope that the Boston Creams would work! Unfortunately... we're bringing our dog, who's a beagle/basset hound mix, with us... so he'd get to the Boston Creams before we could offer them. :shock:

Re: Insurance Issues...

You are actually insuring yourself against liability, along with repair/replacement costs if you have collision coverage.


That's the key thing. Before I got a new car, I simply took liability without collision coverage. When I lived in the US, I took a fairly high liability coverage, because the second you get in a fender-bender there's going ...

Re: carless driving charge

Depends on the provider. Your vehicle had a mechanical malfunction, you made a reasonable effort to avoid any collision, you're paying out of your own pocket, and you did not get convicted. So, 90% of insurance companies should not give you any increase. Even if they wanted to raise your rates, I think you'd have enough grounds to go to dispute ...

Actually, that will be the time I'm travelling through your area. Have to work in the morning/early afternoon... but then driving down to Windsor to visit the in-laws for Easter. I'll wave if I see you. :wink:
