$10,000 ticket in Canada

http://blogs.motorbiker.org/blogs.nsf/dx/canada-introduced-10000-speeding-ticket.htm holy shit im glad i dont live there!!!

That's some seriously fucked up shit. It says all it takes is the word of the officer. I'd ride a tomos moped. Those puppies can't even crack the speed limit let alone go 31 over. Crazy shit.

whats the speed limit, 5mph?:laughingr (sarcasm) thats sad when they go this far, but whats sader is ppl pushed it this far

they are gonna make a lot of money in a very very short period :headshake

The reason its like this is cause we got old fucks that just sit around the pool with nothing better to do but judge you an think of new fucked up laws to piss us younger people off....

I bet a lot of people will try to run if faced with that kind of fine.:burnout:

I bet a lot of people will try to run if faced with that kind of fine.:burnout: yea no shit cause hell what do you got to loose??

I bet a lot of people will try to run if faced with that kind of fine.:burnout: that is a very very valid point :thumbup:

Ill bet the punishment for eluding is less, even if it wasn't you cant outrun a plane. . . Or could you? Fuck it, no harm in trying.

The reason its like this is cause we got old fucks that just sit around the pool with nothing better to do but judge you an think of new fucked up laws to piss us younger people off.... Hey, they piss off some of us "Old Fucks" too! :D

So I guess if I go to Canada on my bike I can expect some police chases lol

I like how you have no rights before something happens to you part... God bless America!!!

the only time i was ever caught 4 running , actually recognized @ a gas st@ion 20 min ltr & blocked n by 5 cops.... cost me about 3grand or so by the time it was all said & done .... so if u add up the cost of getting caught vers the cost of all the tickets u would get if u pulled over & the odds of how many times u can get away .... it is ridiculously cheaper 2 never pull over:thumbup: but th@s me & yes i know im "ruining" it 4 every 1 else . so sorry

"so if you can better 160 you can outrun the chopper." (thats a quote from a Sikorsky engineer) anyway crown vics top out under 130 and the new chargers about the same but they get to that speed alot faster. so burn them on the straight aways and use your weight to your advantage 600lbs slows down for a U-turn alot better than 4000lbs of charger

damn id say it be alot cheaper to just go the freakin speed limit???is it that hard to do????:headscrat

holy shit...

ouch

total bs i live close to toronto we have alot of "super cops" around here who would love to be the first to give out this ticket. I wanted to come to the states before because of my gun addiction now I really want to come so i dont have to worry about my bike gettin crushed for speeding:arsenal

well; it says racing. Does this mean with another bike/car or just you alone?? Is there a certain speed that's concidered racing vs speeding. I mean if ur doin 80 or 90 in a 65 is that cincidered racing?? i mean i cant see this type of summons for going 20mph or so over the speed limit?? Ya know it's allso the morons on the hiways who dont know how to keep right that makes speeding dangerous in the first place. If people kept right and i dont mean just outta the left lane but rather stay all the way right unless poassing then speeding itself would be far far less dangerous. in fact it really wouldnt be dangerous at all. look at the autobahn; It's afact that while it's death to accident ratio is high, it is allso statistically the safest hiwy in the world with the fewest amount of accidents so people dont realize nor do they believe the fact that it's many times more dangerous and more likely to die or get seriuosly injured on our roads and hiways vs a no speed limit hiway where people strongly obey the rules of kepping far right and only move over to pass. The failure to keep right which not only causes traffic slowdowns but is responsible for making life on hiwy's dangerous and it's the very same morons who are guilty of this whom are deciding that speeding should be more and more punishable.

3000??? did you get any time? i am going through a trial right now and they want me to serve 30 days with 1200 in civil tickets and 1600 in fines. i have to hire a lawyer thats gonna run me 5000... didnt even get arrested & did no time , probably would have gotten 30 days n my home county but this county doesnt take bikes 2 jail unless they crash or its during the day, but ? wh@ if wh@ if , good luck:thumbup:

wow.. lucky man.. well wish me the best get a good lawyer and you might get it dropped to reckless. if you dont have a record you probably get a suspended sentence and afine.

lol guess what guys. they are prolly going to buy a chopper because they are the quickest things to get to launch and if they do they arent going to get a superfast mil-spec one.

i am pretty sure that would qualify for the 8th Amendment (Cruel and Unusual Punishment) here in the US. Jail time for speeding, no way.

In virginia beach if your caught i think it's 20 over, thats wreckless driving, and you do time, on top of the newly imposed fines, doing 75 in a 55 gets you a few days in jail, a couple thousand dollars worth of fines, and depending on how bad you were speeding, possibly your license is gone, look it up in your spare time, virginia is a nazi commonwealth. anyway, i agree with one of the guys on the website, shit make it 20k, that just gives me more incentive to run, if i knew i was getting over a 500 dollar ticket, i would drop 2 and dissapear, sorry for ruining the virginia roads, but honestly, does anyone just have money to give to the government when you have atleast a 80% chance of getting away? most of our bikes crack 100 in 2nd gear, and that takes about....7-10 seconds, depending on the driver....anyway, why stop?

"In order to make sure that they maximize the revenue they can generate from this new law, McGuinty proposes to hire 55 new traffic officers and buy a surveillance airplane." -- and the government is in dire need of money and they are doing all of this for TRAFFIC control? rriiiiiighhttt,, eh? :fu:

damn id say it be alot cheaper to just go the freakin speed limit???is it that hard to do????:headscrat i think for some people it really is....dont' know why :headscrat

HAHAH this is insane. I dont speed around town but i do speed on the highway...20km over usually. And if im on the highway doing wheelies(also bad I KNOW) the second i power up a 2nd gear wheelie im well well well over 100km/h. Shit, it drives me crazy. I didnt spend 15k on a 1000 to put around at 50k in 1st gear...if i go full throttle through 1st and second i am at 200km'h in 8 seconds.....never mind the remaining 4 gears. Even funnier is that in first the k7 tops out at 150km/h+...that is already a 10000 dollar fine and im still in 1st gear...seriously. If im doing something really dum..IE 150 on one wheel on the highway..not much of a chance ill stop...if im just speeding..ill stop for sure..not worth it. But for 10k??? Not a chance in hell i would stop. For me...its not the money that is the problem...its all the shit that goes with it. jail time/impounded bike..etc etc. But that is why they do it. If they just slapped me with a 10k fine and sent me on my way, sure id be pissed but id just pay it and move on with life. OK flame away..sorry..im just being honest. I know i do stupid shit...its a calculated risk.

I know i do stupid shit...its a calculated risk. governments think they can just slap a fine on anything and make a new law for whatever. in seattle they just passed 400 new laws what the fuck, some day people wont stand for this shit anymore. you already know im not pulling over:twofinger

I just realised this now. We (canada/us) have been so content in our democracy that the govt is now slowly pulling the wool over our eyes and we just sit back and take it. These are the kinds of actions/feelings that cause bad things to happen. You get the odd person that pies a member of parliament or major leader or whatever...but that only goes so far. It's sad but true, something really bad has to happen before anyone takes notice anymore. IE. a bunch of people run from the cops and get killed or kill someone...no matter how much was said to oppose the new law nothing will change it until a cop chases someone and dies...or something to that effect. Sorry this is kinda dark..my bad

FUCK PULLING OVER....hey, they can't catch us all...after a while, there survival rate drops to zero. a skilled rider can out run a crown vic, charger, whatever the car may be, go to lowes by a bracket, cop gets behind you, reach back, flip it up, and dissapear....come on guys....this ticket shit is rediculous...

errr...half the time i just dont run a plate

Sorry this is kinda dark..my bad Ya ever watch V For Vendetta. "People should not be afraid of there government. The government should be afraid of there people" That movie is spot on on where the us is headed. There are cameras at almost every intersection, soon there will be one pointing in your drive way. there are more cops and undercover then ever before. I just saw a bill board advertising 900 new positions in corrections, is that really necessary? These days they will bring the SWAT team with automatic weapons, repel from helicopters and throw flash bang grenades through your window to bust your pot grow opp. They have air planes to hand out speeding tickets. Constitutionally illegal sobriety check points where they can pull you over with no probable cause to see if you have been drinking. The government can tap your phone with out a warrant, break into your house with out a warrant. all in the name of terrorism, they call it a sneak and peek. wtf! And this is all ok because the daily news pumps fear in to you heart. all your suppose to do is go to work and then come home watch tv, repeat. This country is going to hell in a hand basket, this is not AMERICA anymore. Step back and take a good look, if you cant see it your so blind there i feel better now

US Democracy is a joke...and by the time our children turn 30 i would not be at all suprised if we were not unlike that movie to some degrees...I cant really say a whole lot about it without going into mass amounts of detail but sometimes i feel like this is more like a comunist nation,they do what they want and just make an excuse for it that u cant really even dispute anyway. because who are u going to go to...but thats just my opinion! This could end up being a huge topic with alot of dif points of view lol so i say fuck it and we all just move to Australia.:thumbup:
