It would have to be in good weather when people are naturally fast.

And, the more it was talked about, we thought one car would hang back about 3-5 km. Lookout. If it's after the Guelph line, it's almost impossible to find an exit - OR on ramp. Which means the cops have to be coming from behind you.

And if they're coming, the lookout says "Boo", and then all 5 cars pull into a line middle lane. Everyone will go rushing past, and you can just spread out and disappear. By the time the cop appears... how's he going to pick 5 random cars out of a pack?



Edit: P.S - Although, with every move I make, the police seem to have laws against it, which the board members let me know of. Lol.

I'm down for a cruise... also sure i can get a few ppl in on it.. new thread?

We should setup a date and meetup at a specific tim hortons.
Please post if your interested.
It would be awesome to get this going.

Yep new thread.

Beyond the law, It's a bit of a paradox though, isn't it?

If you make such a small disruption that the cops can't identify you, will the disruption even be noticed enough to help your cause? You will probably just anger the local traffic, and in a worst case even trigger some accident behind you!

Indeed. The trick is to maximize nuisance, but minimize repercussions. A little too much towards minimize, you do nothing. A little too far towards maximize, and you end up with a bunch of pulled over cars.

The best run would be Cambridge to Mississauga. You need to past the 6 before anyone really can do anything (since it's a major point of entry for police). And if we drive Camb Timmies to Miss, then turn around, come half way back and hit a Timmies, I'll pay at both ends. It's good for a laugh.


P.S. - It would be important to note that I wouldn't cause any accidents. At the end of the day, each driver is completely responsible for their own behaviour. If they do something idiotic and cause an accident, I feel no remorse for some douche getting road rage.

That's weird to think about...
Were planning a mass operation consisting of,
DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT.

I doubt any accidents will be caused by doing so.

We should definatly have either stickers or somthing on the back of the cars to let people know why we are basicaly herding them.

I doubt we will get any tickets for doing 105..
Not too fast not too slow. just enough to piss everyone off.

I'm down for this. We need to get other car clubs in on the action too. I can imagine that the cops will pull over the front runners in fairly short order. Can you imagine the look on the police faces when they realize there's another set of cars willing to take up the cause immediately after.

The best day to do it too is on the long weekend. Because if no one can speed, then they can't hand out tickets. And if they can't hand out tickets, you are hitting them right in the pocket book.

The issue is not what your speed is but the fact that you are obstructing traffic. Years ago a teacher got a ticket on the 401 for doing 117 km/h. He protested by enlisting a friend to drive side by side on the 401 at 100 km/h. They were both charged with obstructing traffic.

I think that it would be the perfect kind of protest during this period of societal insanity about speed. Just be prepared to pay the price of being a protester.

They can give you a ticket for driving 1kph over the limit, usually reserved for poor conditions or if you're driving like a complete a$$...

Down here, ANY speeding ticket can automatically be a reckless driving charge as well, but that's reserved for the true idiots, and ones that really badmouth the cop...
