Earlier tonight driving from 9th Line to Markham Rd. Some Asian douche in a blue STi tailing me up until the road opened up to 2 lanes. He flies past Markham Rd on the yellow light all of a sudden I hear the roar of a big V8. Blacked out F-150 flying past me.

As I approach Kennedy Rd I see 2 blacked out vehicles with tail light strobes then the blue STi between them. Asian guy in cuffs! The End. Wish I had a dash cam lol.

I got a ticket by a unmarked Ford Focus, it didn't even have lights. They had to pull their window down to tell me to pull over. Damn budget cuts.

These were not regular cops. They were wearing civilian clothes. Only thing distinguishing them as cops were the black vests and badges on them.

as far as I am concerned, you dont have to pull over if they dont have the right markers...If they insist then they recommend you call it in and confirm that its a real cop...I know I wouldnt pull over for a cop that didnt have lights...thats too sketchy for me.

I saw this happen too once. i was on mccowan heading south, just passed the 407. I was behind some guy on the left hand lane and thinking he was going kind of slow. The car behind me thought the same, pulled into the right lane to speed ahead. Got lit up by the same truck 5 seconds later

This morning I also saw a white car pull over an indian women. You can't even see its a police car except when the lights are on.

Personally I think its stupid my tax money is going to buy the cops stealth/unmarked cars that they're using for traffic.

If you don't do anything illegal or speed then what do you have to worry about ? DO you only follow the law when you can see a cop car ?

I'd rather have those unmarked cars nailing the idiots on the road.

The real idiots are the ones who get caught by unmarked police cars.. ANd the actual real idiots are the ones who don't speed and break every other law.. IE don't know how to merge properly.. dont know what a yeild sign actually means.. doesn't understand that the left lane is for passing. These are the people who are not in the cops raders. It's simply people who speed. **** that speeding accounts for only about 5% of accidents.. the rest is just bad driving.

man, i hate traffic cops. if im doing some stupid speed, then by all mean, pull me over, and ticket me.
but getting pulled over doing 15 over? give me a break. i was going marginally faster than the other traffic!

and why do they need a GT500? it's unsafe for them to chase you past a certain speed, and they must stop chase/call ahead. im so glad i left that province.

I remember when photo radar first came in and everyone slowed down. It worked.

That said, it's been proven statistically that lower speed limits (and lower average speed) don't save lives; it's the small percentage who are reckless who kill.

Hoodzy

Photo radar doesn't work!!!
It causes drivers to brake sporadically. Causes clogs in the flow of traffic. It only accomplishes to slow you down for maybe 5 seconds... in the process increasing the risk of accidents and decreasing flow.

It should only be in school zones when children are present. Otherwise it's a straight up cash grab.. Because they put them in places where the speed limits are too low.

dentinger
04-06-2012, 12:48 PM
we have photoradar/redlight cameras here in edmonton. it works, i guess.

but as you said, people just remember where they are, and slow down at those areas.

even still, a photo radar ticket doesnt reflect on your insurance, it's just a payable fine. i got a 17 over once, $115 or something.

Hoodzy
04-06-2012, 01:12 PM
I think redlight camera's are still a scam.. The police in Calgary wouldn't provide me with a single stat in regards to reducing collisions where they were.. Also if someone is dumb enough to run a red light and t bone someone.. They are going to do it regardless of a camera.. Plus what is the person going to get a 2 tickets for running a red light when they t bone someone???!

Depends on your definition of 'work'.

Statistically speaking, red light cameras do lower the incident of right angle or commonly known as 'T-bone' collisions in intersections where they are deployed by between 10-50% based on stats collected by the City Of Toronto. However, on the flip sude, they also increase the rear impact type of collisions by around 10-50% where they are deployed.

The theory and justification that is commonly used to argue for red light cameras is that the odds of being badly injured or killed in a collision, is significantly higher in a right angle collision than it is in a rear impact accident.

What about when its not t-boneing someone, but when someone is crossing with the crosswalk and someone blows the red light and kills the person.

When I was going to my parents on Thursday, I say a newer caravan pulled over on the left side with just 4-ways on, I thought it was someone broke down, when I got passed and looked back, there was 2 lights attached at the top of the windshield that were flashing blue and red.

I don't really have a gripe with the police, every time I have been pulled over I am polite and cooperate and I haven't gotten a big ticket yet. They are doing their job. If you were a cop and saw someone speeding 20plus would you just let them go?

My only complaint is when they sit on the left shoulder of the highway, if a vehicle was to pop a tire or loose control in the fast lane the poor cop wouldn't stand a chance.

Then there will be a nice photograph before the car blows the red light and kills the person... Do you have a link to these stats from the City of Toronto?? I would suspect they may be biased as well.

Out of all the tickets I've gotten in my driving career they were all BS but one.
-"running" a stop sign at 15km/h on a a very slick parking lot. at 10:30pm and no one around. The cop was about 4 blocks down the road and saw me. Was a giant dick about it.. gave me max fine.
- photo radar for going 12km over the limit which should be 60 as it's a twinned main road with no intersections.. also this was new photo radar where they hide a box behind bus benches
-tint ticket
and I can go on about 2 more which were utter bs.. and when I attempted to fight them in court they messed up and didn't give me the op to make it to court.. Anyways all of the police i've encountered have lied, been ass holes or exercise extremely poor judgement.. And guess what I have 0 accidents to my record and have avoided more accidents then I can remember. Well over 25 where I could have been T boned or side swiped. So IMO police are useless. They should go after real criminals or the people who are actually bad drivers.

ALso Alberta raked in I believe 3 billion dollars in fines in 2011.. and accidents I'm sure have steadily risen every year. It's a blatant blatant money grab that is all.. End of story.

Ummmm ... a STOP sign is a STOP sign ... not a rolling stop at 15km/h when so one is around sign. From the sounds of it, he gave you the max because you were a dick about it

- photo radar for going 12km over the limit which should be 60 as it's a twinned main road with no intersections.. also this was new photo radar where they hide a box behind bus benches
Ummmm .... the speed limit is the speed limit regardless if you think it should be higher or not. I think the 401 should be the Autobahn but that doesn't mean I can drive as fast as I want to. Phot radar if used is not supposed to have a flashing sign saying "PHOTO RADAR HERE SO WATCH OUT AND SLOW DOWN"

The law is the law whether you like it or not. If you are a dick to the cop then regardless of if he is a dick or not, he WILL give you a ticket. I always try to be polite even if I don't like or agree with what I got caught for and I've had cops just warn me nicely that I should watch my speed. I've been hit head on by an idiot that ran a stop sign so I have little sympathy for anyone whgo runs a stop sign. The reason they go on blitzes on stop signs is that so many people run them.

Hoodzy

I've never been a dick to an officer..
Photo radar is supposed to have a sign!
There is a difference between someone who RUNS a stop sign and someone like me who slowly goes through one and treats it like a yield when I can see traffic coming clearly. There was 0% chance of me hitting anyone or of anyone hitting me.
The law is the law you are right however the reason we have police.. people with brains it's their job to exercise judgement and tact to look at the situation and act accordingly.. Not blindly and dickly ticket every person they encounter.

dont hide in your steath cars to try and ticket the guys going +10 above the speed limit when there's no one around. maybe you should use those stealth cars to patrol elementary schools were pedos are around etc instead. plenty of other uses then what they are using it for.

My driving pet peeve list.

*People who tailgate. Or worse yet, people who tailgate habitually and when you call them on it, are too stupid to even realize they are doing it.
*People that don't turn on their lights even during the day when it is raining or foggy and visibility is reduced. How stupid can you be...rhetorical question.
*People who don't signal lane changes or turn-off's, or wait until the last possible second to do so.
*People who don't understand the left lane is meant for passing and if you're not in heavy traffic and you're holding up other cars, move the **** over and let people go by. It doesn't matter if you're already doing 20+ over the speed limit. You're not a cop and your penis/clitoris size is not diminished because someone is going to pass you. Just move over.
*People who drive under the posted speed limit.
*People who brake during even slight declines and turns in the road, or ride their brakes on and off constantly.
*People who stop and/or freeze suddenly when they don't know what to do and for no apparent reason. (Yes Asian Markham drivers in Toyota's and Mercedes, I am mainly talking about you.)
*People who drive automatic transmission cars.
*People who text message, apply make-up, read the newspaper, play with themselves et al while driving their cars.

There isn't really anything wrong with not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign.. It's just people who either run the sign altogether and t bone someone or go ahead of their turn. That's simply bad driving. People wouldn't need to stop at a 4 way stop sign if they knew how to drive.

My problem with that Hoodzy and its not directly at you but the people that think its okay to roll at an empty intersection are frequently also the same ones who think its okay to roll when there are other cars because their time is more important than the other peoples.

There's retarded people out there so the rules have to be standardized, and with that not following a standard that is considered a law would be breaking it. Just my two cents. Not saying that driver is you but its my opinion on rolling stop signs

There were no markings on the car except a modified license plate holder (camera?), and flashing blue & red under the passenger visor. I don't know what transpired, but the driver of the Altima then left by doing a U-Turn and cut off the others at a 4-way stop... THEN put on his seat belt.

Is there any proof the driver was a cop? If it was me, I probably wouldn't have stopped.

I had a similar experience with The same car as pcitured above with license please BKZE 185. I stopped on a red light and had more than enought time to make my turn. All of a sudden this car speeds up right beside me and asks me to roll down my window. I thought maybe he needed to tell me my tire was flat or something of concern to me. He then angrily started saying how i shouldnt have made a right and have stopped at the red light and then I told him I had more than enough time and then all off a sudden he puts on his sirens for 3 seconds and yells i am a cop and speeds off driving recklessly. I did not appreciate this at all so i worte donw his plate and googled it and found this information. I reported it and was told that it is a marked cop car.

When public trust is lost . . . All is lost.


I had a cop flat out lie in court about me regarding a trespassing charge. I told the JP the officers statement was false and I wanted a letter (whatever it's called) to get the security camera footage. If the officer was indeed not telling the truth then I want him charged with perjury. The officer talked to the prosecutor and they dropped the charge.

I personally would not pull over for a random ass car like that. Dial 911. Say some crazy ******* is impersonating a cop. Especially no uniform, screw that.
