Driving on a couple of Ontario’s “Interstates†I’ve seen big green signs saying that if you’re caught doing “x†over the speed limit (it’s in kph so I don’t understand it) you can be fined $10,000 *and* they can seize you car.They don’t specify if the seizure is temporary or permanent.
The vehicle seizure kicks in at 50 kph over the limit which is about 30 mph. You need to be charged with stunt driving which involves more than just plain speeding but if you are you lose your license and car for 7 days minimum. After that I think it is up to the courts. No matter how you slice it it can get very expensive very fast.
I saw that too when I drove through that commie province last summer. It’s extremely retarded.
You don’t understand kph? Kilometers an hour? It’s far less complex than imperial. Personally, I use imperial for most things except ranging targets. We always used meters in Canadian Infantry. I’m also old enough to have learned both systems in school.
1000 meters is 1km. 60km/h is also self explanatory. Basically, all the numbers are divisible by ten etc and makes things easy and quick to calculate.
Of course our rural lands are still in mile quarters etc, and a lot of us will still say.. just head down this road another mile and turn right, go a quarter mile and the farm is on the south side of the road.
It helps me to know both though though.
As far as Ontario goes, if it went up in a mushroom cloud, nobody would miss it, same for Quebec lol (evacuate the women first, they’re hot) lol.
