Only if you're dumb enough to continue down the same road they tag you on you :noob: They should change that saying to "You can't outrun stupid." If you had any idea how to evade you'd realize it's not that hard. It just takes the balls to go for it but I'm sure you wouldn't know anything about that there "Sandy"

Hypothetically speaking of course.....

All I have to say is, it's not like what you see on TV.

BTW heading East on Hwy 1 from Bby to PoCo at 7:30am today, avg. speed of traffic = 115-130km/h. I was so tired after a long poker session that I just cruised in the right lane and let people pass. I didn't pass ONE car and still caught myself approaching 120 several times.

Of course, Officer Motorola can also be in several places at once...

Why? Do you have any idea what traffic is like on Hwy on a daily basis?

I commute through Burnaby every day. Obviously, that's not the norm (nor is it even possible on weekdays) Westbound but if you want to be a smartass, 110km/h is very common for those heading East - and by common, I'm talking at least 50%. I also travel through it during work hours and late at night, in anything from a Civic to a tractor/trailer.

Why do you swear so much? Do you think it gets your point across better? Your swearing takes away all credibility of all of your arguments. You clearly don't know how to talk properly, and don't seem to be very educated.

Holy fucking shit, the man likes to fucking swear so he's going to bloody well swear if he wants to. Rich people swear all the time, so that much mean that if you swear all the fucking time you'll get rich... Moral of the story, everybody's got aids.

one big gripe i have with drivers here, is that - sure, nobody drives the speed limit in the city. It's true, rarely, do you see traffic going at 50km/h. Even during rush hour - people speed up to 60-65, and stop at the next light.

but when I was driving home tonight, it was pouring rain, at some points, you could hardly see - and hardly anyone is slowing down. This is on the highway, in the city. People post here, saying that everybody should be able to think for themselves, but I don't think that's true. People are idiots when they're driving.

There is a thread in the police forum of someone who did not stop for a speed trap. Follow it to see what happens. Hopefully the OP updates this thread:

Note that nobody is going to jail or getting a criminal record under these new penalties... things that DO require a trial and a conviction.

lol cmon now guys

Assuming you guys are responsible drivers, is this law really gonna affect your life that much?
How hard is it to speed, but keep it within 40km/h above the limit?
Most of the driving is done in the daytime, so that is when the law matters most. Since everyone drives with the flow and the flow is hardly ever at "excessive speeds" there really isn't a problem. Of course there will always be counter-examples, but that's normal. You can't expect a law to be perfect.
At night time, well this is off-peak. Nobody gives a shit how you drive at night. You can come up with all the scenarios you want about driving a 3am in the middle of the night, it doesn't matter. Driving is still a privilege, not a right. Do you people not know this?

Problem areas like hwy1 with 80kph speed limits have already been explained (construction). Other roads where the speed limits seem ridiculously low...well just suck it up. It's NOT gonna kill you or make you even more late for work (perhaps leave earlier?). As someone mentioned, there should be a process in place to have a road's speed limit evaluated. If this law affects your life so horribly, step up and do something about it.

You can't expect a law to cover all scenarios and appear to be reasonable in all areas. There will always be examples to the contrary such as some street or some stretch of a road where the speed limit is too low (thereby making this law seem unreasonably harsh) and should really be raised. The law can't account for every possible scenario. The law is black and white for a reason. If things are left open to interpretation then every speeding ticket will be contested and most likely thrown out in court.

It's funny how so many people seem stressed out at this new law? I don't even have to modify my driving habits at all and I don't drive like a granny either. If you sit down and really think about it. This law really shouldn't affect your life that drastically, if at all. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill...
