I was just going to post this question as well.

There were cars just after the Alex Frasier bridge on the surrey/delta side and I've seen them at UBC as well.

I think they usually come out twice a year, once around now and once in the spring time.

I've been wondering about these guys for a while. Any one?

I'd make engine and shifting noises as the cops pulled up.

Arthur Laing who was a Member of the Canadian House of Commons from Vancouver. Arthur Laing died before the bridge was officially opened on May 15, 1976 (traffic had been using it since August 1975).

The Arthur Laing Bridge is a four-lane, high-level bridge carrying Grant McConachie Way over the North Arm of the Fraser River between Vancouver and Richmond, British Columbia's Sea Island where the Vancouver International Airport is located. Two parallel independent unpainted steel box girders make up the main spans. The bridge is operated by the Vancouver International Airport.

hahahaha this thread cracks me up.

on a serious note the same thing happened on 91 offramp just off Alex Fraser East Bound...dunno what those cars are parked there for.

Who is Alex Fraser and why is he so selfless that he lets so many cars and trucks drive over him everyday?

The Alex Fraser Bridge (also known as the Annacis Bridge) is a cable-stayed bridge over the Fraser River and connects Richmond and New Westminster with North Delta in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia. The bridge is named for Alex Fraser, a former B.C. Minister of Transportation who died of throat cancer.
