Hey I'm glad I live with the frenchies.

Imagine what someone who does not really like the English speaking Canadians thinks of the French ones!

If the government implements this type of program, they should expect a reaction, whether it is new radar devices, drivers running from the police, etc. . The fine will drive some pretty strong behavior I believe.

How long will it be until GPS devices are part of every car?

I can see a day when your bank account is automatically charged by your car every time you violate any traffic "law". Consider how many times you don't come to a complete stop at stop signs....

I started this thread to warn ontario drivers... laws only been in effect a few weeks, Let me just tell you they are not messing around last weekend my sister got impounded for exactly 150km/h in an 100 almost $1000 impound fees and we have to wait and see what the court determines but from everything ive read she will be getting the minimum $2000 fine or more.
as for me V1 is now permantly affixed to my window and the blinder extreme laser jammer is on its way as we speak my car is not going to be the next victim of this "police state" law

That is the problem with the socialist state mentality. If the government sells you on the concept that they, and only they are there to protect you and take care of you, it becomes a very slippery slope.

If "speeding" is bad, then the government gets to decide what constitutes speeding and what "stick" they will use to make us all behave.

Easy to justify, it is all to protect US, right?

Now, of course, obesity is BAD for us, so what do you think is coming down the pike. Smoking is BAD and the restrictions will soon be in your home, not in our office. And, of course, the tax on "fatty foods" will follow the tax on tobacco.

Now, don't get me wrong, I hate street speeding. However, as I said above, what constitutes speeding gets worked to the government coufers angle every time.

God bless us all, everyone.
