    Brampton speed camera locations. < s >Thanks Patrick, for putting in more speed cameras, per capita, than any other city in Ontario. < / s > https://www.brampton.ca/EN/residents/Roads-and-Traffic/Road-Safety/Pages/Automated-Speed-Enforcement.aspx

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    Well, today it seems that I'm the bad driver. I just received a speeding fine, from a Brampton speed camera. I noticed they had recently put up a sign indicating that speed cameras were in use on Earnscliffe Road. What I didn't notice was the relatively new 40 Kmh speed sign, 200m north of...

    It was a plainly marked Peel Regional Police vehicle. Pretty hard to goad someone into doing something when you're in front of them, so I really don't know what his game plan was. As I said, I was driving far better than his drunk seeming self.

    I did seriously consider that, once I saw him turn into the parking lot, but figured him being trapped, with my car between him and escaping with his dignity intact, was the better choice ;)

    Today's bad driver was the Peel Regional Police officer who followed me for 5 Km FROM IN FRONT OF ME. I thought I was just being paranoid but he didn't signal until I did, then always went in the same direction. He was drifting into the oncoming lane and the bike lane, probably because he was...

    They do. His girlfriend at the time was also with us. She was 18 and had been charged with shoplifting, 3 years before. She was ultimately found not guilty, however, they still had records of a juvenile charge in their system. (Another reason why guys in their 30s shouldn't date teenagers. Just...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    I was crossing the US border with a friend, shortly after 9/11. That's when I found out that he had once been charged with assault for, literally, hitting his landlord in the fist with his face. He was moving out and the landlord got pushy, then punched him. When police showed up he was the only...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    I was going to say that this was just the immediate administrative penalty and he was still charged criminally, however, a little research shows that the charges against Ganter were dropped, last January. Criminal. Given his, "Can we charge him with something?" comment I can only imagine this...

    Could be either, I supposed, but there don't seem to be any pictures available of the trailer.

    Further narrowing the search, many online have recognized the iconography on the map as being Chinese. I tried to identify the car dash, but failed miserably. All that I can say is it isn't a high end electric, which was my initial assumption.

    Well, that's just too bad. He's proven that he's not a candidate for permanent resident status, let alone citizenship. Out he goes.

    If he was banned, then my assumption is that he was convicted (multiple times) under the Criminal Code. Impaired driving causing bodily harm is up to 14 years. Sounds like this stellar citizen should serve every day of that.

    Watching the "Cowboy Bebop"live action series again. Love it and wish it had gotten a second season, but Netflix gonna Netflix. I'll have to sit down and watch the original Anime sometime soon.

    I'm quite aware of all that, having obviously gone through the process myself decades back. I'm wondering if this person is, say, middle aged and, if so, what the reason is for needing to start the licensing process at G1. Not coming from a place where a license could be transferred from...

    How to lose your license in one stop. I wonder how old this "G1 License Holder" was? EDIT - I should note that I used to know a girl who would write her M1 at the beginning of summer, every year, so that she could legally ride her scooter. Never got her M.

    Yup. If false, it would be a charge.

    And if the friend has any hope of getting his car back sooner, he'll have to get the driver charged with auto theft.
