Depends on the judge as well. Some judges are pretty nice and will dismiss or lower the ticket depending on your overall record and what the ticket was for. Now if you get a prick judge, well good luck to you.

city is going broke, speeding tickets, driving in the olympic lanes, and illegal parking are all sources of free revenue!

For those of you who have been to UBC lately, how is the traffic along SW Marine? I'm putting insurance on my bike tomorrow and was going to cruise down there and down the beach. Is SW Marine pretty congested right now?

i go to work every day and im enjoying the decrease in traffic. there is no school right now, so there are less students driving. there may be visitors going to ubc, but the amount of visitors is less than the amount of students.

cops gets paid to have a day off to go to court now, so most of the time the cops DO show up.

I still go to school almost everyday and as rageguy has said, traffic flow is much faster now that the amount of traffic has decreased. If you are travelling in Marine Dr., watch out for cops in the 40kph zone. They like to park their motorcycles by the intersection of NW Marine and University Blvd. Just today, I saw 2 RCMP's standing by the curb staring at the traffic. So keep that 40kph and don't get a speeding ticket there :)

They like to hide in the middle of the highway too. Going up to ubc before the first right turn and opposite the lookout point they hide in the forest.

Got pulled over last week, then the next day saw a white TT get pulled over in the same spot. My bad, I just didn't expect them to be in the middle of an 80 zone... they're usually in the entrance or exit when it goes from 80 -> 60 ->50.

I have to confess.

At first I thought you were referring the police as vultures (from Starcraft) instead of a type of birds.
