Nice... but I wish it was Fantino or a member of his family that got caught.

That would be quickly swept under the carpet..........like it never happened.

... and who ultimately pays the impound fees for the cruiser?

Despite the obsession with speeding, accidents were up significantly last month over prior year, because of the crappy weather. And here I thought it was only driving 50 over that caused accidents

Although this is interesting a full conviction would be noteworthy.

Doubt it will ever happen.

If she gets convicted, the real question is: Who did she **** off?

Could be many things, maybe she was a bitch, maybe she pissed off a few people in the force, maybe she was promoted quickly because of 'affirmative action' and that left others bitter. Who knows. I didn't think the OPP did that to each other, at least not at the ground pounding level.

As well... possible scape goat. Charge someone to make it look like the laws apply equally to everyone.

A Totonto cop that I know tells me that other depts. generally don't like each other. Example Metro doesn't care for the OPP and vice versa. Maybe she was pulled over from Halton Regional Police.

What moron came up with these terms? "stunt driving", "street racing"... How about " exceeding the speed limit".
Its deliberately inflammatory language. The cop was speeding. ..

Soon ,having a beer will be "liver risking"

Smoking will be "lung flameouts"

and criticizing J Fantino will be "provincial terrorism".

Murder and guns though are just regular crimes.
