Uh oh Torontonians. There are new cop cars out there that are made to catch speeders and other aggressive drivers. Picture included below.


I found the article HERE. <- Thanks Helter Skelter for the e-mail.

By the way, the shimmering effect you see in the picture is the artist's conception of what the car looks like from the side. The Police logo is not visible unless shone directly at it. This is the "stealth" part of the vehicle.

Basically, it says that if you've been driving in a dangerous manner, you're going to be caught. End of story. I think it's just another ploy to generate revenue for the city's coffer. The officer being interviewed even admitted that people don't normally drive like idiots when there's a marked police cruiser in the near vicinity. So why can't the city put 10 more marked cars in constant patrol, so that their mere presence alone will ensure people drive better. By masking your intentions, the only purpose it serves is to catch and ticket people. How is that making the road a safer place to drive?? Afterall, it's out of sight, out of mind right? There's no justification.

So be careful peeps, if you're native to Toronto, or plan on visiting. Theoretically, we should all be following the law anyway, but if somehow in a moment of being rushed, you forget to signal for a quick lane change, John Q. Law might just write you up.

...Does that mean I can't go fast on my bike from now on?? Man, they take the fun out of everything.
