please don't speed, i was just in an accident in north van couple hours ago. it was my first car accident, i'm still in shock and feeling adrenaline. it was during my shift, it was a works demo car, a versa actually. airbag deployed, front end completely smashed in it wasn't my fault nor from speeding. this post is just a reminder really. anyways i blacked out, woke up from people asking if i was alright and having them explain i was just in an accident. first thing that entered my mind: "whoa what happened? why is my car facing the other way? i'm on my shift, am i on my break?" then i hear: turn off the car, turn off the radio!!
paramedic told me he's glad i'm not paralyzed by the damage. i thanked him, but was still in shock while in the ambulance. got off my shift, feeling sore was offered to go to a hospital, but i really didn't want to take up any rooms considering my condition. bruised arm from airbag, leg sore nothing major. though i feel like puking right now.
walked back and found the scratched and mangled emblem rolled half a block away from the accident near the curb. i'm going to hang it on my rear view mirror to remind myself not to speed.

On Saturday, September 25th at around 10:45 AM, motorists in the area of Mt. Seymour Rd. spotted two vehicles racing at excessive speeds up Mt. Seymour. They called the RCMP to report the dangerous driving.
An officer who was conducting patrols near the top of the mountain when the call was dispatched, prepared to intercept the drivers. Moments later, he watched, stunned, as a blue Ferrari rocketed past him at almost 200 km/h. A BMW followed close behind.
The officer was able to catch up to the vehicles in the parking lot at the top of Mt. Seymour. The drivers, two young men, one aged 21 and the other 22, both residents of Vancouver, were issued almost $1000 in traffic fines for Excessive Speeding and Driving Without Due Care and Attention. Under provisions of the new Provincial legislation for excessive speeding and street racing, both drivers had their licenses prohibited for 7 days, and both cars were impounded for 7 days.
“With these kinds of unbelievable speeds, it would only have been a matter of time before they killed either themselves or someone else. The new Provincial driving legislation now allows police to take away their licenses and their cars, a consequence that not only saves lives, but in this case, is also unarguably fitting.”
Cpl. DeVries said that the stretch of road is used at this time of year by hikers, outdoor enthusiasts and families who make their way up to the mountain to enjoy the outdoors.

Trying to tell a 20-22 year old to NOT speed up cypress/seymour is like talking to a wall. Any racing enthusiast is going to push the limits when they think they can get away with it.
I'm not going be a hypocrite, I've done it. But these days I am MUCH more reserved, and it's got NOTHING to do with police.
Let me tell you why: The roads going up cypress and seymour have NO fencing to prevent wildlife crossing. And believe you me, there are SHITLOADS of bears and deer that cross those roads, both day and night. And they don't always get out of the way! They will jump right out in front of a speeding car and sometimes you may not be able to avoid them.
I know Porsches/Ferraris/BMWs *will* stop faster than most other cars, even at breakneck speeds, but if an animal jumps out 20' in front of you when you're doing 160+kph - you're fucked!
I'd argue it's safer to do those speeds on highways like the coquihalla that are designed for it. (even if it is illegal)

And if the fastest don't have this ability, what makes you think a Ferrari can pull it off?

Good on the people who called it in, it's too bad the fine is relatively low compared to the value of those cars. They should make it so that fines are raised relative to the cost of the vehicle haha. Quote:
