According to these “articles” this “Law” acctually violates the Charter of Rights and should be removed by the Supreme Court of Canada.

Error 404 for both links…

these links should work for you…

I gotta stop reading this shit it pisses me off everytime stupid cops and politics…

now we just need someone to do something about it…

some dude with a 350 posted up his experience with this new law
he got pullled over doing the limit and the cops said that he was speending and stunt driving and impounded his car.

^^what the heck?! that is messed up!!! Why do cops have the ability to abuse their powers like this? This is absolutely unreasonable.

nts: always bring a recorder so that if cops want to do something unreasonable like what happened to the guy with his 350Z…I can bring it up to the court…maybe…assuming I have any chance to win the case.

There is a big thread over on the 350 forums about this guy. The cops really screwed him.

post link if u can

there is nothing you can do about it. Not 1 person will stand up to this. we need alot of people otherwise it will never happen. Thats the problem with canada we sit on it and take where other countries if the government does something and the people dont like it, its the people who rally to the streets.

The sad thing is that these articles are extremely well written and are full of factual evidence but won’t actually do anything to change the current situation. No news publication will post this up on the front page - they’re out to get the street racers too.

If only the John and Jane Smith’s who believe this shit (bill 203) would open their eyes and realize that street racing isn’t actually the cause of 100’s of deaths per year. It pisses me off how much the media sways people and completely misinforms them.

Maybe enough innocent people will get hit with the fines and catch on. We need more “reputable” people to catch on and make their voices heard - the police know that a 19 year old male caught “street racing” isn’t going to win any case.

lol forget drug dealers, rapists, terrorists, thiefs, gangs, and jane and finch. where the REAL problem

street racing fo’ lyfeeee kid, thats the biggest gang we got going on here in southern ontario.

if u put a guy in jail the city aint makin money, if u impound his car and give him Hefty Fines for imaginary rules they make up as they go…theen your makin money

That is such bullshit, I FUCKIN HATE COPS!

I would smile if they all somehow fell off a cliff. I don’t care if your dad or mom or whoever is a cop, I don’t like them. I’ve had a few cops try to pin this same charge on me because I ripped first gear and stopped at 60km and crusied. This is some how stunting? What is the law “no accelerating fast to the speed limit”? “no more then 25% throttle when accelerating”?

BUT when you need them they take their FUCKIN sweet ass time. I HATE THEM.

This is why we should all buy toyoto echo’s :slight_smile:

Just my .02 cents

It’s not that we’re a problem, its that we’re easy targets. Sort of how the weak kid gets picked on at school. They cannot stand on a street corner and simply point out which car is transporting drugs or which driver could be a rapists etc… but they sure can pick out which car is riced up or which one is distinctively louder then the rest.

Personally… if I was stinking rich I’d get into my car and purposely go out and race around town so that I could take the government to court and fight this BS but since I’m not I drive like an old lady and don’t put any attention on my self since like many others, I cannot afford to deal with BS like this.

last few years on my stuntbike ive been harrassed on a almost daily basis, bullshit tickets, time wasting, callin my insurance company to see if my slip is legit, takin my helmet and leavin me stranded at 2am with a pig sittin on my to make sure i dont leave till i get another helmet…

now ive made a decision before i see cherries and i dont get harassed anymore. prolly wouldnt make that decision in a car, but its works wonders on a bike!

lol
