lol, never heard of Quebec?
Now you know next time drive real fast, that’s what I learned from this video. Speeding ticket is only $150.
😂😂😂
Yeah and run stop lights and drift corners, would save tons of time doing that, and would still be cheaper than a covid fine
Fizzles Wizzles lol ya but that’s not wise when roads are icy!!!! Not to mention speeding tickets depend on how fast you are going. My kid got a $300 ticket n 2 points last summer when everyone was speeding due to nobody on the roads the dummy…..
@Cloudie 9 Druoid r/woooosh
😁😆😅
He should of driven across the bridge and then pulled over. LOLs
Right hahahahahaha
Facts
Quebec is a joke.
the world is a joke
the whole existence is a joke
Wilson Henley no but seriously Quebec is just weird pre covid
that’s right and we have the “Just for Laughs” (JULY 15-31, 2021) comedy festival but word a of caution, the way things are going, that might be a joke too !
“well after”
So what happened to the “police need a reason to pull you over” situation? I thought they said they can’t just pull you over for no reason then charge you with covid related things.
police can pull you over for no reason
He likely had Ontario plates too which most likely made him stand out
@Colin .C Not according to section 6 of Canada’s Charter Rights Act. However, the Quarantine Act has suspended most of our fundamental civil rights.
There is an 8 o’clock curfew. They pulled him over because he was out after 8. That’s a reason. I’m not saying I agree with the outcome, but if there is a curfew with a fine, then if you break curfew, expect to get pulled over!
@dustigenes yep just like in Germany awhile back they had a similar thing
If you were from a certain culture you had to wear this arm band and if you didn’t you were arrested and fined
Not saying I agree with it but we can’t pick and choose witch rules we follow that simple ……………………..
Surprised he didn’t get fined for the exhaust leak that’s clearly shown
It’s so common, salt on the road, see it on 6 out of 10 cars in Quebec and Ontario, starts so small it’s no noticeable, can leak for 4 years before the driver notices
Yeah sure he can pay it, so, Stasi what you going to do, put him in crowded covid prison. How much did all holiday MP’s get fined? Oh yeah, they are above the law.
Yes, they are. We won’t even take their pensions away.
Bingy Bingy you completely miss the point, it’s no big deal to adhere to a curfew a small gesture big impact for covid. 🇨🇦
They lost their jobs.
It’s so poo poo
Why wouldn’t they just give him a warning, especially knowing he was going back to Ontario. And with the bad weather, they should be happy that he was taking his time and being safe.
They’re in it for money and tickets. The ticket money is almost irrelevent…the insurance is what gets you. WHICH SHOULDNT MATTER. ”speeding” is barely dangerous. The mental patients who get a lisense and almost hit you every other day and wreck cars every year are the real problem. No reason to pay half a used cars value in insurance each year. I’d fight that ticket.
It will deter him from travelling access provinces and to make sure he doesn’t stay oug after 8. It’s like you guys have the maturity of a 10 year old
They would make no money. They gave out a hundred of these last week cha Ching!
Interesting that in this case the harshest fine was applied on the least excuse. The officer should be fired. The spokesperson should apologize for giving ridiculous non-answer. Fine should be dropped.
8 o’clock is when covid is at its deadliest .. follow the science ppl..
😂😂😂😂😂
The WHO also recommends wearing necklaces made of garlic.
@Cartoonishly Inept 🤣🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Yup it’s the most high tech virus we have ever had.
In Ontario the virus knows not to enter schools or NHL hockey games.
Yeah I opened my door at 8:01 and COVID attracted me!
Twelve minutes past eight and on his way out of the province. A few over zealous cops here, kind of power-stricken eh!
“ontario plates”
I still don’t understand how he could get to Quebec? Isn’t the border shut between the provinces?
No not at all …
The Ottawa river is frozen, he could drive across. 😊
@David Parry you just pass the bridge to Gatineau
They got what they voted for, so whaaaaa.
They are testing their power, to see how we respond.
It’s all a money grab.. think about it all now really hard now.
They own all your money. Confused? Read what says on the bill.
Dear Daddy, the logic is, he broke the law!
So stay at home then lmao. You’ve only been told EVERY DAY FOR THE PAST YEAR. Not buying this crap at all. Kids going to grow up thinking someone else will always be responsible every time he breaks a rule. Out of province plates, cops were just waiting for you. literally.
I’m so glad I’m living in BC, almost everything is still open here.
He shouldn’t have been out. Stop whining, they gave him a reasonable penalty
