Vancouver man fined $2,300 for going 100km/h over the limit near Lake Louise
 
A Vancouver man was charged after the RCMP caught him exceeding the speed limit by over 100km/h near Lake Louise.

Jerry Wong was pulled over in his silver BMW by RCMP conducting regular speed patrols just east of Lake Louise in the midst of what RCMP described as heavy weekend traffic. He was clocked at speeds between 184 and 191 kilometres per hour in an area with a speed limit of 90 km per hour.

Wong was fined $2,300 and had his license suspended for 90 days.

“This is an extremely dangerous speed to be driving. I would ask him why his haste is more important than everyone else on the road,” said judge L.R. Grieve.

“This is borderline criminal what Mr. Wong did. This is disgraceful.”

Redlines_Daily 10-03-2012 03:29 PM

I bet the cops drove the speed limit until they slowly caught up to him...

180 :fulloffuck: imagine he hit a moose at that speed

TBH, lake lousie to banff is pretty awesome, four lane highway thats new ish, nice views. Luckily he was in AB, or else he would never see his car again.

I think I averaged 180-190 going to and from Shuswap this year.

I gotta get a radar detector.

he must've been trying to catch up to the larry chu cruise

Being the his license is suspended for 90 days, is that in effect only in Alberta or nation wide assuming he has a BC DL.

:ahwow:

thats all he got... at the minimum 9months or 1 year suspension.. gotta start laying down the law for people who speeds intentionally like that, they said its also during heavy traffic, so other lives are at risk..

You mean like everyone on the mainland. I almost never see anyone driving the posted speed limit.

There's a difference between going 10-20 over the limit and 100 over...

andrew dobbie 10-04-2012 01:01 PM

k i can see how the guys is an idiot for going that fast during traffic areas but its not THAT big of a deal/disgrace if nobody is around...
Maybe he thought he was on the autobahn

Ferra 10-04-2012 02:19 PM

lol...he should be glad he didn't get caught in BC...probably would've his car seized and auctioned off if he were caught here

$2300 fine + 90 days suspension really doesn't seem like much...actually, i would call it a reasonable / light penalty.
On the other hand, getting your car seized and auctioned off for speeding is like getting your dick chopped off for slapping a random girl's butt

beproud 10-04-2012 03:40 PM

Very true
He got what he deserved. Reason why I don't speed, not worth in the end eh

sekin67835 10-04-2012 04:37 PM

There was traffic so he got what he deserved.

Define: Traffic

Was it a couple cars spaced out every 400-500m? Or was he constantly having to weave in and out?
