Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Anyways back to Post Topic never speed through Chatam and watch it west of london. The flow of traffic really slows down and when that thing turns into 2 lanes your toast.

I think that has to be some of the most aggressive OPP in the whole province for speed enforcement, unlike those guys that are on 400 sometimes that must be asleep.

I thought ...

Ya no kidding Fire Start.

They have an OPP station right at that intersection at QEW & Hurontario.

A few weeks ago i saw an officer who was using an old on ramp that was down for construction sitting with lidar in the 80 zone. They had a tow truck waiting to.

130 = 50 over now LOL!

Those signs should say something not on sundays or days with no ...

Hey bookm sorry i didnt see your post.

In that way the officer got a reading coming the opposite direction????

Here is the problem how could he then check the speed of both your vehicles driving in the opposite way and not be sure he had the one that was driving infront of him?

Was there a lot of traffic when this happened?

Bookm it is very ...

Thanks bear i totally agree with what you just said.

Reflections your right on I beleive the Decatuer Genesis 2 has that or its the stalker i dont remember. I think its the genesis 2 i have seen alot of those in OPP cars.

If you wanna see some new OPP vics if you look up the mississauga detachment off the QEW there is a tim hortons literally 1 km ...

haha the stripes on that cat remind me of a marked OPP crown vic.

Although i am not sure if i have love for them but do they ever get my attention. Last time i was on the 403 i saw the usual guy at the bottom of the hill between mavis and erin mills and i just pulled right over in the right lane and passed him at exactly 99 km/hr.

Reflections ...

Some of those expensive european models like bmw's have those installed in the back.

They are so bright it can be distracting.

The same goes for those people that put HID's in a reflector based system.

Ill have to agree with Viper mind you most cops use common sense to.

I mean don't go take a toddler on a motorcycle on a 400 series highway going 50 over the limit.

If an officer pulled you over doing something like that i am sure your gonna get the book thrown at you.

I mean if your cruising around a small local street with a 10 year old who ...

I wonder how many times hwybear has slapped 172 on those tim hortons trucks that pass along the 401.

Boy oh boy i bet the whole detachment couldn't wait to impound one of those :twisted:.

I bet they would detain and impound the whole truck and everything inside the trailer to!

Officer of the month! :lol:

After all it is a stunt to drive a ...

Sorry that post was a bit long.

I watched this video again it's very good.

So my question to hwybear is lets say this was 3 lanes and the cars were all travelling really fast between eachother. I mean a lets say they are all going 125-130. It looks like its hard to tell exactly who is ...

Well bookm in response to your post.

Now let's say this is a 2 lane highway and you guys are the only 2 cars plus the officer.

In that case he would check the speed of both vehicles. Sure it may not " be vehicle specific: and he can not be 100 % sure its you but what he can do is check the speed of your vehicle (faster one) and the speed of the ...

Even though sometimes we all dont agree with hwybear....

I enjoy him on the site. I am always interested to hear the perspective of the officer. His posts are very informative.

I have came to have alot more respect for Highway police and the OPP in general (except Fantino) from reading alot of hwybear's posts.

Maybee if the rest of the public ...

What exit off the 403 is this at (# or main intersetion.)

The 403/QEW has some really bad on ramps and design in some places.

Very interesting. Lidar is hard to notice i find. They can get you from really far when you least expect it!

Does radar also have this kind of range (K / Ka)?
I have seen some officers in some really wild spot's on the 403 and i wonder how they're equipment can sometimes get readings from this kind of distance.

Today i saw a guy up on a hill on ...

Squishy great idea, some of that beef Jerky and the approval from Bookm and your on your way!

That really blows to get charged with that.

here is a tip although your still breaking the law.

Lets say next time there is a slow truck in the middle or you want to get away from someone and need to exceed the limit to pass do this.

Go into the left lane and immediately put your right turn signal on. That way even if an officer sees you your ...
