Re: Highway patrol pulled Traffic Controll officer to give him a ticket

Just because someone or even a hand full of people are grieving doesn't give them the right to disrupt or disturb other peoples' lives.

And you telling them they should have no right to a procession is not a disruption of their lives? hrmm
 
Re: Highway patrol pulled Traffic Controll officer to give him a ticket

By that logic, it is fine to disrupt MORE peoples' lives because of something they wish to do? Makes no sense to me. Living people should always have priority over the dead, not the other way around. People really don't need to drive in a long, slow line from the funeral home to the grave yard. They can get the address and find their own way there. It really isn't that hard to do, especially with today's technology.

You think the procession is for the benefit of the dead guy? Sharp one you are :rolleyes:

Doesn't matter. More people are affected in negative ways in a busy urban area due to processions than the people actually in the processions. Processions should not be allowed in high traffic urban areas because of the impact it has on the higher volume of people in the traffic they create.

I like how the best argument you can come up with is an attack on what you think my intelligence level is.

I guess we should ban all those crosswalks as well? I mean why should one person wishing to cross the road take preference over the busy bodies rushing around doing all manor of super important things..
 
Re: Highway patrol pulled Traffic Controll officer to give him a ticket

you were saying something about intelligent argument?
 
Re: Highway patrol pulled Traffic Controll officer to give him a ticket

That's why there are traffic lights to cross at, when other traffic can also move. Plus, pedestrian safety is something completely different than a procession. Apples vs oranges. Processions do not make anything more or less safe - proper pedestrian crosswalks do. You're absolutely ridiculous. I think you need to check your own intelligence.

Anyway, I'm done with this, I'll let you have the last word since your ego seems to need it so bad.

"132.

R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 132 (1)."

Finally. I don't know why they always go so slow on the highway or otherwise. Living people have places to go and things to do. Ok, someone died, I get it, I have had people close to me die too and it is not fun to deal with. I just don't get why they have to inconvenience dozens if not hundreds of other people who are still alive and may possibly be late for work or something because of a slow moving funeral procession that blocks entire intersections or lanes causing other back ups.

I would hate to be a parent who raised such a self center prick.

I think next time you see a funeral procession, roll your windows and yell at them for the inconvenience. Do the same when your parents died as well.

Note the exception, note that is why we have traffic control officers to determine the safe operation.

I would eat me own shoes if that ticket stick in this case. 4 traffic control officers vs a dumb highway patrol.

Are these long trains inconvenient or not? Even those that run slick as goose **** are a pain in the butt. Normally that wouldn't be a problem because we're all happy to make concessions, at our inconvenience, for the good of the community at large. Except we don't live in communities anymore. At this point it's like somebody willfully causing a traffic jamb. Is that to be applauded? Is there a line in the sand? What if the deceased was not even from around there? What if the procession was three times as long? What if there were four other funerals processions in progress simultaneously? And then there was a five alarm fire and lives were at stake? I guess all these questions are null a void if it was your parents procession. Because tradition?

But seriously, I'd like to know what the true story is with this particular situation. Cops don't give out tickets for no reason.

That's it. I've lost all hope. Multiply this by 34.

The exception is there for weather related issues (snow, rain, sun low on the horizon), oversize vehicles, and traffic congestion (otherwise everyone on the 400 highways at rush hour would be "guilty" of impeding the person behind them). It's not meant for special interest events like funerals, protests, etc.

Loled are you sure about that? Or you have been living under a rock?

Regardless the proper thing to do is the dumb cop radio in to request the traffic controll officer to speed up. Giving them tickets is just a ********* move to prove you have power

Say who? You?

Traffic control officer is there to ensure safe operation. Stop making stuff up.

Hah! By creating disruptions to the flow of traffic and forcing drivers to leave and enter traffic in risky ways?
