Constant Dangerous Driver in my neighbourhood....
 

I did a bit of research on the forums but cannot come up with a reasonable answer.

Anyways theres a neighbour that lives one block behind our house and he constantly drives rediculously fast up/down our street/backalley; running stop signs and doing burnouts....this man (age 40+) seems to not care for the posted signs of " Children at Play" or "SLOW"....
To add to this, his exhaust noise from his mustang is absolutely loud...loud enough for me to hear him a few city blocks away.

Our neighbours seem to not want to confront or speak up about the situation..they talk alot, but they don't want to try and stop this fellow...
I have confronted this guy before, and he did "slow down" for a few months, but with the weather lately, he seems to not care for pedestrians on the streets or the kids that play in the neighbourhood.

Would the Burnaby detachment do anything if i catch this guy on vid and have visual proof...or should i just file a verbal complaint?....This guy has been doing it ever since he moved into our neighbourhood lastyear.

He drives a white mustang GT with open headers..which is insanely loud even ideling...and driving like an idiot during peak hours and evenings is starting to get irratating....

Video tape on.

Hit record button.

Call RCMP and show them video evidence.

GG.

Just call the non-emergency line and talk to someone about it.

Join blockwatch too

When you see him coming, throw spikes out on the road.

All suggestions except jlenko's are recommended. His is what most of us would really like to do.

Sometimes the most simplest of answers is the correct one. Do what you have to do.

Its obviously within the law to capture this idiot blatantly breaking the law. I don't see why you need to ask on the internet what to do.

Sounds to me like you just needed to vent to someone.

sounds like the stereotypical mustang owner... geez...

Sorry to hear this...

Makes you wonder about society when the action that the majority of us desire to do is the least acceptable resolution to the problem :p


If you know where the guy is but are too anxious about confronting him, perhaps send him an anonymous letter letting him know that his actions are unwanted on that road and that further continuation of his behavior would result in a call to the police.

^That's what I'll recommend as well.

Im not venting...

Im not going to go and make a claim/statement if it only results in wasted time...

Its a police forum, and the search button didn't come up with any answers..:thumbsup:

edit: thanks for the suggestions...i'll get something down and maybe i'll post it up.

40+ years old and driving like that? tell him he drives it like his parents are on vacation

Difference between men and boys is the size of their toys...in this case, to quote Skrek..."we know what he's compensating for".
