Couldn't have said that better myself.

The French just love to surrender, it's part of their cowardly fiber.

if the cops where stationary and outside the car, the cop wouldnt have caught up... the kids should have kept going and made a few turns.. dump the car and walk on foot...

But the biggest speeding ticket you can get is excessive speeding which is up to $483...

Well that's kind of stupid? Why is there an upper cap on this?

Yup, the fine for going 50+ is up to 10K with immediate suspension and impoundment of your vehicle for 7 days.

yeah, tell that to the people who have got away from the cops. Just cause they have a radio doesnt mean its going to catch the suspect for them lol. Braking and turning right and shutting the car off and walking away cause your so far ahead of the cops is faster then the radio as well..

twitchyzero 02-04-2011 11:36 PM

240kph...they probably can't even get a chopper on scene fast enough at 3am
imagine this happening on a snowy montreal night lol

What kind of statement is that? Laws in Quebec are a lot smoother than here. BC driving laws suck, period. And they don't rear-end each other doing 60 on the highway. Their insurance is so much cheaper as well. So you can drop the tough racist guy BS...

First of all, mocking the French does not make me a "racist"... Maybe an "ehtnist"?

Secondly, it's a historical fact, there is a reason everyone in Europe refers to the French as yellow.

Laws in Quebec are not "Smoother", and somehow I doubt you're opinion in that matter is very educated. Common law vs Civil law in Canada is still subject to the constitution.

Is there a difference? Yes. Would it have made a difference in this case? Not really. I'm not sure "BC driving lws suck" I like the idea of people being punished who otherwise put my life in danger with their crazy speeding or driving while intoxicated etc.

Now please remove your tinfoil hat. It's a joke.

puhleaaazze we all know the french have a long history of being great @ warfare even during ww2 when the country gave up

you cant dismiss their surrender as being "pussies" the country was split* and there was the overriding knowledge (especially because of the split populace) that sticking out and fighting would just mean a bloody losing battle (after all france suffered the most from ww1 outside of germany)

they surrendered but kept the fighting going anyhow


anyway its just become the "fun" thing to do when one wants to make light of France "surrender monkeys"




*those who supported the war, those who didnt; those who supported fascism; those who supported communism; those who didn't feel like France was France anymore and thus not worth fighting for; those who could foresee it as a losing battle with certainty; those who wanted to save lives; etc etc etc

:whistle:

He obviously wasn't.

storms 02-05-2011 02:44 PM

^He claimed he wanted to see how fast an x5 can go! The hotel is now paying for the BMWs impound fees and any other expences that may come up!! I wonder how they explained that one to the owner.....

Nightwalker 02-05-2011 05:31 PM

Sucks for the owner still, if it's a theft can't they just forget the impoundment?

Culverin 02-06-2011 12:27 AM

Just checking...
Once you're caught "street racing" in bc, you instantly lose your car right?

Anjew 02-06-2011 04:27 AM

And if you don't die, your face will be posted on car forums to be laughed and ridiculed for a long ass time.

yep excessive speeding costs 1.5k in BC.

$3xx for the initial ticket and then Driver Risk Premium fee of 320$ every year (billed a month before your birthday lols) for 3 years; so its more like 1.3k. but if the cop decides to tow your car on the spot,(which they have the grounds for) thats a few more bills. oh and thats the minimum, if u have multiple offenses/other points expect to pay more.

make the hit while you're on the bus and dress it up so it makes you look like a total baller: "hey baby, glad you can join me in my limo along with all these other fine people. lemme get my chauffeur drop us off at the next stop so I can buy you a drank" *DING*
