Speeding - what would happen to you if ...

[BlackCat]

If its a crime its a crime. Off duty cops don't get a pass. Just as if they are impaired, they should be charged and I applaud their fellow cops for doing it.

Fully agree - police should be the first to report crimes amongst own rank. Though, I hadn't expect them to go to this extreme. Your RCMP's must be well trained.

The impound problem arises as the law targets the owner of the vehicle (another problem) and doesn't exempt public vehicles.

Though, the owner being responsible is quite

Apart from an automatic ban and possible charges for reckless and dangerous driving, you'd have to attend a 'speed awareness course' here.

Scary films? Mutilated crash survivors to scare you strait?

It's been decades since I conversed on your level doc.

I live in the developed part of the country. Ontario has its own police force. The RCMP have to beat people to death elsewhere in the country.

They are "responsible" in that their vehicle gets impounded for 7 days whether they knew it was being driven that fast or not. Done at roadside (towed away) and there is no appeal of impound.

Well, that explains a lot - I thought that you were pulling my leg by claiming that the police horses could go above 50 km/h

Ok. That makes sense. Annoying, yes, but it could be worse. There are some nutcases here that want to make the owner responsible for speeding if a speed trap can't identify the driver

The owner here can be responsible for the fine amount on a photo-radar speed charge (traced through plate number) but no demerit points apply. A speed charge laid by officer is the only one that can carry demerits and can only apply to the driver (fine and points). For this reason the photo radar is rightly viewed as a cash grab.
