    "DEAD RED" law in Ontario

    Been pulled over before by an off-duty at 9pm on a quiet industrial road on a Saturday night after running a red after 2 cycles. Could not turn right/uturn as it is the TTC transit bypass off Finch. Quick chat and I'm off.

    Hint? There's damn near 8+ of these in the boundaries and I can't find that monument on any of their streetviews. I'm hopeless

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Where did you end up buying the 2014 from? Private or some used lot elsewhere? I'm semi-regularly on the prowl for a 2014-2016.. and for the Volt, prices in the states actually are about equal to what they are locally.. and most of the local ones are in Ottawa/Quebec..

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Telsa is great, but look at the videos on youtube about build quality. There is a minor gap between the rear windshield's top edge meeting with the roof's sheetmetal. Stuff collects there, leaks, etc. Great first kick at the can, much to be desired for long term viability.. especially when...

    What is the best all around motorcycle in your opinion?

    Hey, you take that back! jk I picked a bike with the realization that riding in GTA is exactly what you described the vfr as, sterile, neutered, bland until you get 1.5 hours out. I decided that for the boring rides that make up at least half my riding, (enroute to more relatively more fun...

    Smallest/Fuel efficient car that can tow a motorcycle trailer

    I was badly curious as soon as I read this thread, and after reading that towing and camping thread, my mind is going haywire thinking of how I'd use it in combination with my SUV. Just wished my wife would have bought this instead of a comparatively useless mazda sedan.

    Any GTAM'ers own an electric vehicle?

    Great, there's that green car test place by my work, I'll give it a looksee. The Volt back seats fold down right? And only the current gen has a real 5th seat in the back?

    Is the Volt the only drivetrain of it's kind where the gas motor generates the electricity for the electric motors, but never motors the car down the road?

    Smallest/Fuel efficient car that can tow a motorcycle trailer

    Standard car would be preferable. Otherwise, automatics may have more opportunity to heat up and cause troubles, assuming you don't install an auxiliary transmission cooler. Might I suggest a wagon so you can sleep in the back and still tow? The ultimate cheap travel will be the most fuel...

    Scooter rental - hit and run or am I being taken advantage of?

    Not sure.. my other cars/bikes are all old and have never had to deal with this before. Would this be bike or car insurance? Car insurance has $400 collision/upset, $200 comprehensive deductibles, $500/$500 on the bike insurance.

    Scooter rental - hit and run or am I being taken advantage of?

    Hi Folks, Hoping to get your thoughts on next best actions regarding a situation with a scooter rental company. When signing over rental contracts, there was no point where we walked around the scooter, pointing out any damages that were pre-existing. There was also no choice of scooter, I...

    Safe to assume you are in the right tire track for better visibility? Could I entertain you with this neat pamphlet of why it is "in" to dress like a power ranger? -White ranger.
