I've been the first on the scene at a couple when these crotch rocket riders have ended up "face down on the asphalt..."

...there was far more than "some road rash", a few of them didn't make it, that's the issue with the speed...sometimes

there's not a lot left TO pick up. If these fools knew the RCMP where 'watching' up here more often they'd probably

be less inclined to use it as their own personal speedway.

Seems to be the day of idiot female BMW drivers.

First one blew thru a red light on Gordon and the second cut me off at a 4 way stop, we got there at the same time and she made a left in front of me...Idiots, both of them.

Classic move by goofs who don't know how to handle a 4-way and just think "me first" in the entitled and self centred manner of these times we live in.

To the Woman driving the Ram Minivan on Benvoulin this afternoon who ran the red light at KLO.
You then proceeded to swerve into the oncoming lane (3 times) for the cyclist in the bike lane. You had more than enough room to stay in your own lane and if you can't figure out where you vehicle is in relation to the rest of the traffic then you should not have a license!

You are an idiot.

Tiny bright red Kia microcar north of town, swerving and under taking aggressively, no space, cutting people up left and right. You're a menace....

You'd think someone driving such a small goofy "Mr Bean" car would be aware of how vulnerable they are.

Not this clown.

Coming down from Joe Rich this morning, before 7, hot steppin' it to KGH and having a white jeep Cherokee,

up close n personable, ride my bee-hind all the way to Blk Mtn.

Even though I was doing 10++ over...was so tempted to hit the brakes so he could 'eat' the big assed heavy duty trailer hitch

I have on my bumper. So close I couldn't see his front tires on the road in my rear view mirrors...complete idiot.

I rarely 'salute' folks but this guy got an early morning bright n shiny 'bird' from me.

Today's red plate move was to wait til the left turn advance green arrow came on then move forward 6-8 feet into the cross walk ready to pounce for the straight thru lane. No chequered flag. No prize. Fail.

When I moved here from Calgary years ago, the first thing I noticed was how much I was being tailgated. Mentioned this to my wife and she had noticed the same thing and commented further regarding a friend back home that is originally from the coast and how much this lady would tail gate driving around Calgary. Tail gating is the BC provincial past time. I believe they teach it in the driving schools here. Witnessed a 3 car accident down in Burnaby last summer that never should have occurred except they all had their noses up each others butts and the first had to quickly hit his brakes.

Idiot of the day yesterday: more like dick of the day, dude in a blue suv heading along Springfield that would not make a space for the pickup driver that was signalling for quite a while. We were stopped at one point and I was right beside him and I pointed out to him that the pickup was asking to change into his lane and he just shrugged his shoulders and gunned it to fill the space once traffic started moving.

Another one today from Alberta. Same intersection another red light. The difference being they were in the right turn only lane and went straight thru while changing lanes. :200:
