Re: Early Morning Photo OPP B&W

Wow bear no wonder they are becoming more common, LED's last WAY longer to.

I wonder why TPS (toronto police service) has not yet switched.

Peel has almost fully converted over with a few old impalas with the Big old school lights.

Mind you peel is starting to buy crown vics again.

Re: charged with speeding 15 kl over in process of passing

On a second though Racer i thought of something.

Maybee they would only use 172 on a person blocking a lane if it was a tim hortons truck plugging the middle lane and stopping others from using it. Can you imagine them impounding a whole tim hortons truck + trailer. boy ohbboyyyy :lol: ( are the contents of the trailer evidence to ) :roll:

Infact the MTO can go put the limit to 180 if they want to.
