spotted some clown last night, south bound 400 in a nice '79 Targa, no roof, doing in his best Jim Carrey impersonation (of the Dumb and Dumber icey moped variety).

spotted a Stig on QEW West around Mississauga Rd. at about 10:30am. I was undercover in the family car. BTW, obeying all posted construction speed limits in the right lane.
