QEW's HOV lane Hot Permit loophole?

[ramblin]

Ahh I was waiting for this.
You are aware and most people are not. The hwy speed is 100km/h for ALL lanes, 24/7 in all of Ontario where posted.
HOV is not a race lane, or hyper drive lane. IT is a convenience lane for vehicles with pack people to by pass single drivers.

This is not the Autobahn.

Nor, is it a passing lane. There is a passing lane and the HOV is not it. I say that if people are not happy with the speed of the person in front of them in the HOV lane, then pass them in the passing lane.

And if the HOV lane is going faster than the other lanes then tough luck, the people who want to drive at 130kmh should be happy they are going faster than the other lanes. Accidents happen when cars are travelling at vastly different speeds. Doing 130kmh in the HOV lane when the other lanes are doing 60kmh is supremely dangerous and all it takes is one person to suddenly change lanes into the HOV to cause a serious incident.

Thank you. I drive the HOV lanes at 110-115 and sure enough some jack arse is up my ass flashing his high beams, like WTF?

If I had superpowers and spent a lot of time driving, at first I'd be chill, but as the months go by, I'd probably straight up murder a cunt like that eventually and once you lose your MDK cherry, there would be a fucking bloodbath.

It's one thing to be a tailgating asshole putting the lives of others at risk because of your narcissism, but well fuck, I was PASSING someone going 120 in a rental Yaris hatchback and this fucking in a pick up was literally 2 feet behind me and he kept his highbeems on. It was hard to make out when it was even safe to leave the lane because blinding light. If I had powers to snap his neck, to this day I'd do it. I mean fuck I was going 20 over the limit and I couldn't get out of lane because I was passing someone.

Things happen for a reason, understand cause and effect.

Cause: when you drive at 110-115, and there is a gap of 200-300 meters between you and the car in front, you're driving too slow, and blocking every other car behind you, since there's no way of passing without breaking some traffic laws.

Effect: Guy behind you tailgates and flashing high beams.

So you are going ABOVE the speed limit, AND you are keeping a safe distance and that makes you the cunt for driving too slow and blocking every other car behind you.

Narcissist. I've seen these cunts. Traffic packed, everyone going fast, but because I keep 2 second behind the person in front of me like a fucking adult these cunts end up going into the right lane and pass me. I am keeping with traffic, even when they do pass me, they can't go any faster because the other 10 cars ahead of me are going to same speed and 2 feet from each other like a bunch of retards.

They say the case if made against democracy by talking to an average voter. Taking a drive works pretty well.

Sure cause and effect, when the booty warrior wants your booty and you choose the hard way, you get beat up and your booty taken, but that doesn't justify getting a beating.

Agreed, the passing lane is for passing and if you are passing a slower car then you have a right to be in the passing lane. Left lane hogs on an open highway are a different story.

I think the problem is our justice system. Letting go people breaking the traffic or criminal laws will only escalate to a point we will become another country like the USA where we will be carrying guns in our glove compartment.

Hear Hear!
Scofflaws are for Lawscoffers.
This is an arena where your life and well-being depend on the civil interaction among hundreds/thousands of random strangers.

A few days ago I noticed a little sign that says "Speed Radar Enforced" right after a major intersection close to where I live...I looked it up and found that there are speed cameras coming to my area this year, but couldn't find any solid info about their locations through the city website.

Anybody familiar with this sign?
