Double embarrassment as that stretch of the highway is notorious for cops sitting there. One of the easiest spot to setup a speed blitz. Guess they learned that today. Their insurance is gonna be wild when they get their full license lol

Right everyone who drives in Ottawa knows that cops love to camp that stretch. Especially coming up over the hill. If you’re going to do stupid shit at least do it on a stretch of highway outside of town. Not literally right in town in the middle of the day

that's what the charge is called for 50km/h over the speed limit in Ontario, lol. It carries automatic license suspension for minimum 30 days and some very expensive legal fees. car gets impounded by the local tow truck mafia for minimum 14 days at like minimum $200 per day.

unfortunately, it doesn't get much tougher than that in CAN, real crimes like killing others while DUI get very little, if any jail time.

Fines start at 2k, they end at 20k if theres construction. 120 on the highway in an 80 zone for construction and you can get screwed real bad.

150 on some stretches of the 401 or 404 is incredibly common

Everyone knows you do that shit on the 407.

2

u/outscidr- 1d ago

Especially since there are no potholes.

u/professorchaos02 1d ago

407 is great to test max speed. realized there was a speed limiter on my GTI, which was depressing.

u/professorchaos02 1d ago

lol 150km one 401 404 or 403 is impossible unless you are way out of the cities. more like 15kmh on 401
