The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

I'll give each driver the benefit of the doubt once. Maybe something like a 20 year jail sentence with two years before parole eligibility. Get caught driving even once and you return to jail to serve the rest of your 20 years.
Enter the unintended consequences part. A banned driver behind the wheel being more likely to start a police chase with the chance of injuring others.

The only thing that will stop the problem is 100% successful enforcement. IDF vs Hamas brutal, colateral damage be damned.

Unintended consequences is better than the current system of essentially no consequences. Sucks for their family as any assets they had would be lost if someone got hurt.
 
What bothers me is that a number of those were close calls because the recording driver took evasive action. The problem being they could have collided with another innocent vehicle and the real cause of the mess would drive away Scot free, having no contact.

A car comes out of a dealership, clips the rear of the recording vehicle and runs.

In a pipe dream, the police investigate like they did for the crash that killed Princess Diana. The driver gets charged and convicted. He gets the usual fine for failing to yield and failing to stop. Then he gets a bill for all the police time needed to find him. If it's 1000 hours at $200 per hour he's out $200,000. What are second mortgage rates these days?

Regularly publish the list of unsolved hit and runs and the updated fees. If a snitch wants to come forward they get a sizable share of the tab. Let the hit and run guy sweat.
 
Will we ever have decent driver testing and training?

If a quarter of the drivers on the road lost their licences what would happen to the housing market? Similarly if minimally trained drivers were banned from 400 highways. All those North of the GTA homes and no public transit.

Do you think the developers would worry?

Frequently, in the videos that I tend to watch, the cammer is at least partially at fault. Accelerates to block a lane change. Takes no action when someone is obviously about to do something. Actively puts themselves in the way. Runs a cold amber because "you don't have to stop on amber." (For that last one I have refuted the claims by posting the local traffic law, verbatim.)
 
I drove into the belly of the beast today. Even getting close to Brampton and driving ability starts to drop off. On WB 401 express to collectors, an suv in the right lane braked during the entire transfer lane, then cut across the bullnose for some reason to get to the collectors early and then continued to slow down in the fast lane. The mind boggles.

If you're on the WB401 past the airport, the passing lane is on the right ;)

Just watch the Toronto driving Reddit sub. 8/10 times the cammer / person complaining could have very easily avoided any issues by just letting off the gas, slowing down, or simply looking ahead.

I’m glad to see they get torn to bits for it.
 
Shhh, don't tell anyone. That's my lane! No one else uses it and it's the only safe place to be.
In the collectors it's the only place that I can routinely do the limit, as long as I watch out for transports making three lane moves after coming in from the express.

That's the only issue along there. It get really bad the closer to Dixie you get. I don't have a need to be down that way very much anymore and certainly don't miss the mayhem on the 401 or 410.
 
This one is fantastic. Exiting your vehicle while it's in drive, machete fight, self-injury, it has it all.


Investigators later determined that a verbal argument took place between the female driver of a white Nissan and a male driver of a silver Toyota in the parking lot. During the incident, police say, the female grabbed a large machete, exited her vehicle, and chased the male on foot throughout the parking lot.

“The white Nissan then drove into the side of the mall after the female exited, leaving the vehicle in drive,” police said in a news release.

“A male with the female driver intervened and took away the machete, sustaining minor injuries as a result.”

According to police, the female sustained serious injuries while “unsheathing the machete” and was transported to an out-of-region hospital.
 
Kitchener-Waterloo insurance rates are higher than Brampton. Just sayin'.

Always have a machete nearby in case you have to crack open a coconut or blaze a trail through a tropical jungle. It shows absolutely no sign of premeditated intent. SF
