I do not know how true it is, but I will rather be safe than dead!!!
WARNING FROM THE RCMP
Someone was following me on my way to Whitby Friday night with no headlights on. I just assumed they forgot. As I was ahead of them I had no way to signal them. They flashed their lights at me a couple of times and eventually passed me. The car was packed with teenagers. If this was a gang initiation, I am glad I did not signal them as I had the kids in the car.
Please be careful everybody.
RCMP WARNING
Please pass this on! Important police warning… Very scary, now moving east…started in Manitoba , now in Saskatchewan , and moving east and west.
This came directly from our Driver Training People who got the warning.
Pass this to anyone you can. One of the officers who works with the DARE program has passed along the following warning and asked that it be shared with all drivers. This is an extremely serious matter.
If you are driving after dark and you see a car without its head-lights on, do not flash your lights,do not blow your horn or make any signals to the driver of the other car. There is a new common gang Initiation ‘game’ going on the streets. The new member being initiated drives along without his headlights on until someone notices and flashes their headlights or makes some sort of other action to signal him. The gang member is now required to chase the car and shoot at or into the car in order to complete his initiation requirements.
Make sure you share this information with your family, friends, and anyone else you can reach. If you have any questions or information, please call your local police department.
Please take this seriously. This is not a joke. Please pass this on to everyone you know on e-mail and in person. It could save someone’s life.
