Guess i'll just have to upgrade to a GT35r... That way the cops simply wont be able to catch me.

That's retarded, because the penalty for 39 over and 41 over is night and day. I reserve the right to challenge the accuracy of the equipment and/or it might so happens that my speedometer is not calibrated correctly (ahem BMWs) and there's discrepancy between what I know and what you think is the truth.

there's much to be discussed at the court here. A mis-calibrated instrument (like the radar gun) should easily throw out a case like this. But if the car is towed then wtf.

That's like having someone weigh your weed with an inaccurate scale and say that you just went over the threshold of personal consumption - hence criminal offense.

Then you get into a lawsuit and still get dinged for legal fees. No it does not work that way IRL if I can prove that your damn scale is useless.

thats like anyone who does 120km at night should receives a VI


:rolleyes::rolleyes:

ok
yes this law will curb speeding
but it doesnt fix one big issue I have with our roadway system

there are spots in which the speed drops by 20km. Cops will set up traps right where it switches
and depending on time of day and how everyone is driving, yo are almost 90% sure to get dinged

say.. hwy99 northbound south end of massey tunnel. it goes from 100-80 within a 40m stretch..probably less. most cars will have hit maybe 85-95 depending on how fast you approach it. thats speeding already, albeit not to the extent of the new law

or say upperlevels headin back into vancouver. the downhill section, radar at the bottom of the hill, your going speed limit, but the car behind ya is tailgating, in most cases, becuz its a downhill, you will drive a bit faster to avoid an accident, in which you see a cop wave you down cuz u were speeding to protect your own ass. The car behind you might be a beater or an unskilled driver..or jsut someone in a hurry that might make a mistake and rearend you

Oh no I just did 130 down highway 99 4:30 AM WITH NOONE FUCKING AROUND. I AM SUCH A FUCKING THREAT.

we have to pay for the olympics some how. lol

YES, first was the parking meter in downtown, HST and now this crap? I love this city!!

haha, there's so much hate in this thread... everybody just complains about the city, the province, the government. If you really feel so strongly against it, write to your MLA. Or if he doesn't do anything, then vote for another one during election time.

I love the government. So much I think I'll move to Alberta.

try 121km

;)
fuck the goverment

That is the best way to put your tail between your legs yet! Make fun of me then turn and hide. :thumbsup: Goog job. Consider yourself reported too.

If you go to court to argue between 39 and 41 you obviously know you were speeding and are guilty.

It is not hate, it is stupidity. Look at the people responding against this new law, they cannot even put together a sentence properly, nevermind construct a valid argument.

I know you're a moderator, yet come on! Of course you don't care about logic, cause your post has none.

When you commit a crime they take the property used to commit it. Like I've pointed out, if you want higher speed limits that means greater driver education, and also stricter enforcement of those limits.

So you can have no speed limit on the S2S, yet like the Autobahn, when there is a speed limit you better obey it or risk stiffer penalties.

Then again, that's based on logic, which has just about been thrown out of this thread.

HEY GOOGZZ!!!!!

Consider your self backtraced too.

Ah, now 1990TSI is going to stalk me. :hay:

Try coming up with a better argument, and maybe you wouldn't have to fear my response.

One member has already been warned by a moderator about personal attacks. I've sent him a PM. If you want to talk smack there's an entire section for it.

Usually I'm pro whatever law change (especially the phone ban while driving) but this one I don't see eye to eye with.

40km over is not only exceeding, but also dangerous to do so in the city. However on a highway with lots of space around is not too bad IMO.

I guess we'll never get an autobahn here lol

Going 40 km/h over is not a criminal offense.

I don't care what the logic is, and we are definitely not talking about a firearm being used to commit a crime here; to have the right to take and withhold someones property for going 150km/h in a 110km/h zone at 4 in the morning with no one around is bs.

Like I said in my original post, what's next then? They come and take your TV and fridge too? It's not right.

I know there's the deterrent perspective, but that's what traffic violation tickets are for.

This is correct. Keep the flaming and personal attacks out. This thread is for a discussion only.

If you have a problem with a certain user, move it to fight club.

You've been warned.

Flame baiting and purposeful provoking in the general forums will be treated equally as flaming. Like Yaminshi stated, if you have a problem with a certain user, move it to fight club.

Thank you

WHOA, I JUST GIVE A FAT FUCK.

Excuse me? I can put together a sentence just fine. For someone who is reporting anyone and everyone they can, it's hypocritical of you to attack the linguistic skills of those opposed to this law and call those people stupid.

And really, the inability to put together a sentence does not mean that person's voice or opinion has any less weight than yours.

Just because you can put a sentence together doesn't mean you know what the fuck you're talking about.

Kev

It's 80km/hr right now because there's construction going on throughout a major stretch of the highway and most of the work is going on at night time. You don't drive 120km/hr when there's a bunch of people right on the other side of the two foot concrete barrier. However, don't forget that fines are double right now on Highway one as well... ;)

Damn taylor. You eff'ed up. Done. GG'd.
