    From the picture on beyond with the lambo and a vette in the driveway, with that amount of money tied up in vehicles, spend some fucking money and put in a proper lawn!

      He was obviously speeding enough to get pulled over. Whether or not he was going 240 is not up to us to decide.

              This will be an easy win for him and his lawyer. How can you tell the difference from 180 kms and 240kms?! You can't just grab numbers out of the air like that. It will never stand up in court. Its impossible to estimate someones speed unless you were heavily involved in professional racing for years and years.
              Yet another example of a stupid cop and one more reason to dislike their power trippin ways.

                I got pulled over once in Douglasdale, the officer said "I don't have a radar gun but it looked like you were going a little too fast". I was doing 50 in a 50 zone. I said so and he let me go on my way. But still, I was pretty mad that he pulled me over for guess-timating my speed when I was actually not even 1km over.

                Soo I don't find it that hard to believe that the acceleration in this car might have made someone think that it got up to a higher speed than it did, if there was no radar. It could probably leap from 90 to 120 in a way that would alarm nearby drivers.

                  thats actually where you are wrong.

                  police officers are "trained" to estimate speed. and their verbal testimony in the absence of hardware proving speed violations is used often in court and stands in front of judges.


                  Do I believe they are good at it and credible, no. But for some reason they have been given this power by the courts.

                  Was the guy doing 240....prolly not. Was he doing the speed limit. Prolly not.

                  Was he somewhere in between...more than likely.

                  He'll probobly just plead out to a lesser speed charge and call it a day.



                  You can usually tell when a cars speeding. Traffic generally moves +/- 15km/h of the speed limit. When you've got a car blowing past regular traffic theres a pretty damn good chance they are speeding. can you accurately say how fast, probobly not.

                  The guy in question is an idiot for even writing anything on message boards however. if i was his lawyer i'd slap him and take away his computer

                    This happened to me on macleod, he said i was going 180 in a 60 because he had to do 240 to catch up to me haha. My lawyer got it turned into a $300 ticket and 3 demerits. This was when i was a immature 17 Y/O in my civic, i was actually going maybe 120- 130 and it was where macleod turns into 60 from 80 :/. Guarantee this guy gets a slap on the hand lol.

                    PS, my civic would take a year to get to 180 haha i dunno what that cop was thinking.............

                      I'm aware that they have some credibility in courts were no device was actually used and the courts have to go on the officers word. But it can be easily argued by any compotent lawyer. If someone is going to get nailed with a stiff fine of 130 kms over the limit, there has to be some kind of factual information to prove this. Most lawyers will plead it down, not because they are scared of losing, but because its an easy day in court for them and a quick and easy buck. If the guys lawyer is good, he can get the fine thrown out for sure.

                      As far as do I believe he was speeding? For sure...but by how much? Your prolly right about the "inbetween" theory.

                      Its interesting that you say that the police are "trained" to estimate a moving vehicles speed. I would like to see the course criteria on that topic. I would bet its a "basket weaving" course at best.

                      As far as him replying to the message board about the situation, its probably best not to say a word about it, but he didn't say anything incriminating against his case, so you can't really fault him on that. But I do agree with you on that one. Its best to say nothing at all

                          not when a judge is involved. court isn't at all like what it is portrayed on TV.
                          its best to sit down, shut up, and be good. this includes doing things before court and in the media.
                          cops/judges/etc. will look to make an example of any idiot who tries to embaress them. a 25 year old with a lambo caught speeding is a great candidate, and is almost a slam dunk.

                          A competent lawyer will plead down, not because its an easy day in court, but because when you plead down you give up your defense for a guaranteed deal. otherwise you stay to fight, and when you leave things in the hands of judges, boards, juries, and regulators you NEVER know what will be the outcome.
                          its all risk vs reward, and a guaranteed deal is a guaranteed deal.

                          i'm sure the driver will happily take a few demerit points over the possibility of losing his license for a lengthy period of time.

                          either way, he better learn a lesson, because he will become a target. and if he gets busted again and brought before a judge, the deal, if any, wont be nearly as nice the second time round.

                            This guy was caught on a high speed run last year, Im sure the Judge can easily look that up and decide on their own...
