A valid point; in Quebec the lines are law.

I've noticed Air Force Griffons flying around quite regularly in the past week or so.

Actually, road markings are ALL cautionary, only road signs are regulatory. Pass on a double yellow all you want, so long as it's safe. However if there's a no passing sign also erected, then you're breaking the law. As for the colour of the road markings; yellow denotes opposing traffic on...

This is my understanding of it as well, and also as advised by a traffic officer. When something goes wrong though...

Sounds like an interesting night!

You're right; can be done... but that would require a production order (like a warrant) and they won't bother. Had she seriously injured or killed someone; different story.

A familiar viewpoint; my cousin speaks very highly of where he lived but hated the separatists. He lives in Ottawa now.

Ironically, it was voted on today and has passed. http://kitchener.ctvnews.ca/maximum-fine-for-distracted-driving-increased-to-1-000-1.2402419

Insurance companies love it as it demonstrates a (much) higher level of risky driving habits and they can adjust your premium as such. No points with the conviction... yet. There is talk of raising the fine (again) from a set fine of $280 towards a max payable of $1000 and 3 points. The max...

We'll have to see. Understanding that the pricing will go up as the terms are now 2 years vs the 3 years of the past, I just got off the phone and found that my corporate package has gone up in price (expected) while offering less product (or at least less of what is useful to me). Add to...

We'll have to disagree; if you're doing anything other than driving then you're not operating with due care and attention which is careless. Unless there's evidence of some other reason for the collision then it's careless. That the courts will accept the plea for follow to close despite there...

That's not how the court sees it these days and many follow to close charges have been thrown out in rear end collisions as soon as no witness can provide evidence that the car was too close. If there's no witness to state that the following vehicle was too close then the charge isn't...

You'll pay for those hoses though; it was double the price for a set for my Superduke. My coolant problem was an internal crack that wasn't visible. What was visible was the coolant seeping via the fibres woven within the hose which were acting like a wick and drawing the coolant out (a quick...

Many opinions here. Mine is that I don't ride with a back pack and many of the opinions here are the reason why; -It MAY protect you (even though it wasn't designed to. Even the bike specific packs aren't safety gear, they're just more comfortable on a bike or better at protecting your stuff)...

While it was likely a follow too close situation, without a witness (including the OP, but it's obvious that he didn't admit that at the scene) stating at what close distance the OP was behind then car, then there is no evidence to support follow to close and only careless remains which is why...

He was an American that was staying at the resort too. I can't remember where it came from.

Bridal Veil Falls in North Carolina. A great area to ride through when down to ride the Tail of the Dragon. Mine aren't nearly as well framed or staged as mr.walczak's (which I regret now!).

I recognize that spot! Took a similar pic from the other direction.

Ditto for Apex. Every time I've gone to Peninsula I've left unimpressed based on attitude and lack of knowledge. I don't even bother anymore. I've yet to talk to someone I know personally that has much positive to say about them.

GP Bikes stocks them.
