I heard it was only 15 MPH over and the fine was $1,000

I'm not much of a speeder, but some of the roads here in MD (backroads) are 25 MPH and straight and wide open. I never drive 25 on those roads.

This is just more incentive for speeders to run from the police. Dangerous.
and it will only get much worse if the bicycle loving car hating greens, democrats, left wing liberals and thier insane ILK gain more and more 'control' over you. WAKE UP VOTERS!

Sorry for you in Ontario, but Canada has been left of left for a long time.

We threw England out of this countryfor their rediculous taxes and other dumbass laws for this sort of thing.
Wow, I guess I need to go back to elementary school and complain, since that's not exactly how it was tought to me...
For those of you in Rio Linda...!

That was part of the reason! Read your history! Ever hear of the Boston Tea Party and what that was all about? Taxes, tariffs and the like! Guess you weren't "tought" (taught) all of it!

Right now there is a petition going on because of this. They say it is discrimination against VA residence. When you think about it, who on the Interstates are driving like they areracing to a fire? Out of staters!

Just so you know......I didn't vote for Kain.....can't stand the site of that man!

You think you got it bad with a $1000 fee???? LOL Have you heard of the new Ontario rules ? We also have a politician who hates cars and people driving them.

Any Cop has the power, right there on the side of the road, to impound your vehicle and your licence for 7 days whilst they prepare for court appearenceleaving the motorist NO right of appeal. The rule is explicit, the Cop is the LAST word.
So, why would he impond it? You'll love this !!!!!!!!!!!

- Street racing (fair enough)
- if the officer sees the car performing a stunt. Stunt =peeling out,donutting etc
- If the officer believes the car has been used for such stunt
- If the officer believes the car is prepared for such stunts
- If the officer believes the car is in the process of being prepared to stunt
- Police have the power to take the vehicle from private land even if it's being taken because it's in the process of being modded to run faster ie, stunt

This means that cars designed to go fast are actually in breach of this new legislation. Go to any classic musclecar show in Ontario and the Cops could, using this crap, take pretty much every car there and crush it.

A quote from this A$$wipe politician

"We can seize that car if we have information from Police and, just of the balance of probabilities, if we can establish that car is being used or prepared for street racing, we will seize it and you will never see it again. We don't need to wait until that car hits the road fully loaded"

"We will crush the parts, you will never see it again"

God, it's times like this that I long for a States residents Visa.





Wow what an idiot! What kind ofvehicle does that politician drive......a bicycle?

Excellent quote...Mr. Franklin was a brilliant individual! As were most of our founding fathers and authors of our consititution. The Constitution is what sets us apart from all other countries on Earth. That is why we are still living in freedom in what is still the best country on Earth!!
