Is Richmond RCMP handcuffing HOV cheaters??
 

Caught this on my car cam yesterday morning on Arthur Laing bridge just before 8am. Young female driver in black Benz hancuffed, so was the passenger. One is near the cruiser the other near the benz. They appeared to be students. Video not too big but hope you can see it.



This morning I also noticed a cheater was not in his car, but was in the back of the RCMP police car. Is this their new way to deter cheaters?

I pay more attention to my surroundings when I drive in the HOV lane. So really it's safer for me to be there.

Off topic but I wish people would fucking learn that the HOV on hw1 ends at 7pm...

Students in an S-Class? Ballin'!

Oops wrong thread lol

So are you troubled by the handcuffing, being detained in the back of a squad car, or just the fact that they're pulling over people for improperly using the HOV lane?

I think there's more to it... maybe DUI? didn't see an N in the video, but if they were N drivers just one sip means DUI!

You have no idea what they were actually pulled over for, right?

You're just guessing it was for an HOV violation, it could be something entirely different.

Wouldn't it be better that people don't know the HOV lane ends so there is less traffic in it for people that know it ends at 7pm?

or are you referring to people that get choked at you when you're in the HOV lane by yourself after 7pm?

driving home from work in traffic and seeing cars in the hov lane whizzing on by....soo...tempting...

Because there are always a few slow people in there after 7pm messin with the flow of traffic.

I don't think it was DUI because the Benz first zipped past me on Russ baker just past BCIT. Then like 5 minutes later when i caught up they were already pulled over as in the video in handcuffs so they couldn't have gotten tested so quickly.

If there were two people in the car aren't they allowed in the HOV lane?

Maybe she was driving without a license? No insurance? So many possibilities out there

that stretch is 3+... look closely at the sign you will see three heads (I'm not kidding, the number of "heads" in the signs do make a difference)

moar assumptions, please.

maybe they knew she was gonna be a future see-lai.

that is true. before i think it only showed a "2+" and no heads. Frankly i was unsure if it meant 2, or more than 2. So the that's probably why they changed it to show heads. :)

Did they have a fresh batch of these in the car??

they were probably driving with suspended license.

you dont even know if they were driving in the HOV lane at all.... they're just pulled over to the safe side of the road so they dont impede traffic...


pulled over sclass, handcuffed driver/passenger = drug dealers/gf's :)

How has the OP not received any fails...?

Excessive speeding, driving without due care and attention, evading the police, homicide, trunk full of drugs/guns/dead bodies, just robbed a bank........................

On another note, what's it going to take to make the signs on Hwy 1 way larger and read:
STAY RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS?

oh you and your assumptions.

with a shitty assumption title, OP received 2 fails? lol

should receive a million


maybe she was selling drugs? maybe she was a prostitute? maybe she went over the speed limit?>


:spamarama:

I don't think cheating in an HOV lane is a criminal offense and to be handcuffed because that's pretty far. :derp:
