    I haven't seen any mention of the mechanics of the collision, but I have seen a pic of the (blurred) rider on the pavement, prior to ambulance arrival.

    Here's a good one. Someone in Oakland, California, finally had enough of the stupid "street takeovers" and trapped a bunch of the morons on the Bay Bridge. They only got a few of them, but they got a ton of their bikes...

    Twice now I've looked at the second movie, forgetting that I had seen it before. I'm done with "Dances With Blue Aliens."

    If I'm reading that correctly it would jibe with my instinct that while violent crime itself is decreasing, the severity of those violent crimes is increasing.

    They don't need it. Brampton is still monitoring the speed cameras, though they can't charge anyone for what they have. They're using it to try and push for reinstating them by using the data for increased speeds, after the ban went into place. I really don't like how they expanded the camera...

    Nope. Not in my experience. Following to close is the go-to. If it doesn't get charged that way, then it gets pleaded down to it anyway.
