Started out harsh, then I took off my helmet and she seen the gray hair
. We talked about the hazards of winter highways and the fact that she was at a bad motorcycle accident 1/2 hr earlier.
I told her about the TC and ABS, showed her the tread pattern of the PR4's and apologized for being a huligan.
Lucky it worked out for me this time Brian.
Some of our provinces do have some nasty penlities for speeding but mostly a cash cow here in Alberta for the government and insurance companies. Speed fines are doubled in construction zones.
One province to the west (BC) they impound you vehicle for speeds in excess of 30kms (18mi) over. Then there's the court date, fines, inpound fees, hotel, transportation home and back to pick up your ride, loss of wages or holidays to deal with all of this.
