I know you Albertans are in a hurry to go to work and have to speed. Keep the economy going.

I gave that up and generally travel the speed limit plus the 10% they give you. Have only got 1 ticket in 17 years...touch wood!

Totally in how not what you drive. I use to be a little wreckless, will admitt, but after several tickets and some scaaaaaaary close calls I would rather be a little late then not at all. Its far better to plan ahead, take the time rather then pay the fine. More people are injured or killed every single day driving to and from work then actually at the work place.

Just saying..........

I have to agree with FS. I have 0 tickets in 15+ years. I do 130 in the 110 and have passed many a trap. Only once have I had a cop even motion for me to slow down.
It's the guys that have to push it beyond what is safe...especially when your pullin the trailer. I love getting passed by the lifted diesel pulling the 4 place enclosed on the blind corner at 150 just because they can. :nono:

And you wonder how we sledders get a bad name. :rant:

Always has to resort back to that eh.

Haha amen to that.


One ticket in the last 4 years of having my license, 67km in a 50 zone.


I think people grow to dependent on radar detector's, always look around before putting the pedal down.

My buddy told me the Police have to radar check you 3 times in order to be able to charge you. Whats your take on that?

Really!!!!! whats the point of speeding.... so you get there 10-20 min faster is it really worth the worry of getting a ticket. I go to golden a lot and the guys I go with have time to order and get there sub at Subway before im rolling in... were at the hill at the same time
My 2 cents
