Took an hour and a half to get to Canmore and nearly 2 hours to get home yesterday. We need Banff rail ASAP, the roads are full and can't handle any more cars.

At least we still have McMahon Stadium. wait...

Does SAM stand for something? Stampede Arbitrary Museum? lol

That's the thing, if the radar is in a location where there are a lot of accidents, then I'd be fine with it. Instead, they just find a place where the speed limit changes arbitrarily and tax people while whatever cop just sits in the car on their phone. CPS wants money, and they don't seem very...

Yes, as long as it will catch red light runners too.

Seems destined to fail...

Lots of decent size trees to obscure the mediocrity... lol

Imperia is just further along at this point.

We should definitely be doing something, currently it seems the approach is ignore the problem and hope it goes away.

Never said speed wasn't dangerous or a problem, not once. There are a lot of articles that mention going 10mph slower than traffic flow make you 6x more likely to be in an accident, and that it's a higher rate than going 10mph over the limit. I'd like to see an actual study instead of a...

Are you serious? you don't think merging onto a freeway or highway going 30km/h slower than traffic is dangerous? should all the people driving on the highway have to slam on their brakes to accommodate someone going way slower than the rest of traffic? I'm not saying speeding is more or less...

So dipshit Rob Ford is going to use the notwithstanding clause to overrule the courts and rip out bike lanes. I expect dumbass Dreeshan to follow suit. I hate this mindless populist age we live in...

If we move it, where will it go?

The benefit of controlling car speeds would be to eliminate the very slow drivers as well as the very fast. I was merging onto Stony last week behind a woman who was doing 70 and hitting the brakes as she was merging. This is how people die on freeways, and this woman probably thinks she's a...

I'm 100% in favour of the removal of photo radar in speed traps. Active enforcement I like, but paying some CPS "officer" to sit in a ford explorer while scrolling his instagram while generating revenue is just lazy and does nothing to increase safety. CPS should not be allowed to check their...
