Not that much faster than what ppl typically do over the bridge at night. I'm surprised there was an officer to finally ticket some of these ppl

If he got a 7 day impound for this offence (being his second excessive), then his first offence is already in the dispute process and so has not registered as convicted. I hope the paper got it wrong and it's a 30 day suspension as a second offense.

I'm not sure about the "swap car" scenario you describe here?

When a car (or bike) is impounded for excessive speeding, the ownership of the vehicle is irrelevant, the vehicle is impounded and the driver gets the ticket. The vehicle is impounded regardless of whether the driver was the registered owner or not. An excessive speeding ticket does not carry an automatic license suspension that's assessed by the superintendent of motor vehicles based on driving history (or roadside in the case of DUI). Once the car has done it's time in impound it can be picked up from the impound lot and driven away, there's no suspension of use by owner post impound. You're correct that if the registered owner of a car permits a person with a suspended license to drive it and they get in an accident, the owner is screwed, insurance void.

UPDATE - After review by the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles, the impound of the vehicle in this matter has been extended to 60 days. Additionally, West Vancouver Police will provide supplemental reports to the Superintendent which will be reviewed for consideration of ordering a Prohibition from Driving.

The Superintendent of Motor Vehicle's Driving Prohibition would be separate from penalties considered should the driver be convicted of Motor Vehicle Act charges to be forwarded by investigators.

ive heard the tow impound lots damages the shit out of these impounded exotics. scraped bumpers, dinged doors, rock chips and a whole bunch of other shit happen when you get a 60 day penalty. All hearsay and conjecture from a bunch of narcissistic rich bastards, but at least it puts the fear of TODD towtruck guy in them.

I'm okay with it... I think the chance of him killing himself is improving with each speeding offense. It's Darwinism at its finest. Just hopefully he doesn't hit a bus full of kids doing 200kms per hour instead of a tree/pole. Considering the time of night and the clocked speed I'm guessing he'll be done pretty soon.... After 60 days that is

cbc article about mitchell's towing... because it's the north shore, they see high-end vehicle impounds on a regular basis:

there's someone climbing up the lions gate bridge right now and the police shut down the center lane... maybe it's the driver protesting his impending suspension?

what dragon88 meant is that post impound, the ferrari driver will swap cars with a friend (during his suspension period) because his own ferrari will be flagged in the police database as having a possible suspended driver. this means the ferrari will have a higher chance of getting pulled over when the plates gets scanned even if at the time the driver did nothing wrong, just so the police can confirm the driver is not the suspended person driving it, which in this case is his friend driving it with a legit license, and the ferrari driver will be driving his friends car which is less likely to get pulled over.

Most of these guys have more than 1 exotic anyways or at least a second / third vehicle to drive while their fun car is impounded. Cant drive the F car? take the P car. Both impounded? its 3 series city for you amigo.

They should implement a separate penalty category for cars over 150k. Kinda like ICBC insurance doesnt cover cars worth more than 150k, they should also ding exotic drivers substantially more. That or implement a penalty based on wealth like that of Finnland

A $60,000 speeding ticket!

Agreed. Tickets for us is nothing to them.

I heard a story where a lady in Richmond got more than 10 tickets and she still drove...

Totally agree with you but I don't see it happening around here.
