But not one long enough that they can pretend to be in a car with a 16 speed Fast&Furious gearbox.

Saw a couple of people post that "Agatha All Along" did a better musical episode.

I'm constantly amazed at the sort of actor that Spicoli turned out to be.

The standard response is, "It was closer." no consideration is ever given to the fact that those vehicles either need to eventually rejoin traffic, or exit/be towed off the highway.

As they say, "Bad drivers never miss their exit."

Unfortunately, it's the sort of thing that tends to be a long standing pattern of behaviour. I'm not sure if you're old enough to remember the debacle in Toronto of the old (now long disbanded) Metro Holdup Squad. There's also what happened over convictions under HTA172 that involved Dennis...

This is the sort of incident you get when cops "trust their gut" about people they "know are dirty", then lie to get a warrant. This is why they have procedures and legal requirements.

There's a reason why track vehicles' maintenance is measured in hours, not Kms.

I keep wondering why they don't just shut down both sides of the blockage and arrest the lot. Worst case they run on foot leaving their vehicles behind, to be towed. Then again just like the Belltown Hellcat, they're stupid enough to provide the prosecution evidence for their own trials.

Their entitlement.

Folks here might be interested in the (literal) trials and tribulations of Miles Hudson, driver of a car known as the Belltown Hellcat, a Seattle area "social media influencer." He's one of that particular grade of moron who actively records himself doing stupid things on public roads. Among...

I'm thinking that this exact scenario has happened before, for some reason.

I think that the evidence would uphold a Criminal Code charge of dangerous operation, even here. The truck driver had a second or two in order to weigh what would almost certainly be a crash involving 3 vehicles, that would have a high chance of his rig jackknifing, or a controlled leaving of...

I just watched the video, in the linked report. She passed the truck in a no passing zone, with oncoming traffic.

Regarding the Williams case, that didn't fly. Nor should such an obvious attempt to thwart justice stand. Instead, it got Williams's wife dragged deeper into everything. https://macleans.ca/news/canada/ex-wife-of-serial-killer-russell-williams-loses-court-battle/

Which isn't supposed to happen if the delay is attributable to the accused but it has happened several times, in high profile cases.

It's always a numbers game and the cost for settling or losing in court is only a part of the total. Someone, somewhere, has surely done the math.

Given that there were 15 charges involving 5 incidents, and he seems to have been found guilty on all of them, 7 years is actually a bit light in my opinion. While the sentences would typically be served concurrently, as Canadian courts rarely apply consecutive sentences, each crime does...

Those advanced walk signals do trouble me. Given my walking speed they tee me up, pretty much perfectly, for a left turner to take me out.

Sure, they don't need to wait until after a finding in court, however, if they do it pretty much makes The Force/City judgment proof. Not a lot of courts are going to rule in favour of someone who has been found guilty 'beyond a reasonable doubt', in a civil suit that only requires...
