The cops were looking for 1) people gawking at their fucking smart phones, 2) going through red lights (because bumper was in intersection already), 3) going through red lights (because going too fast to stop and need to get to place), 4) not wearing their seatbelts (yeah, that’s a thing), 5) not having kids properly seated or restrained in the car, 6) pulling a u-y at a controlled intersection, and 7) looking for people gawking at their fucking smart phones (because you’re fucking deadhead losers sucked into the vortex of blankety-blank self-serving oblivion causing death and misery and no question a sign of the apocalypse), and all the other stupid things that happen at intersections.
I think they should be commended for hiding in plain sight. Very clever. Probably nailed a bunch of other violations THAT AREN’T BEING MENTIONED IN MILDLY HYPERBOLIC ARTICLE. The begger thing is a real dick move though. Maybe if the driver wasn’t such an empathetic, caring “oh, I’m sorry” CANADIAN he wouldn’t have gotten a ticket…in which case this is a perfect example of the cost of living up to being a Canadian. I’d pay the ticket and wear it proudly.
Dear Regina traffic court judge: this guy was boned, give break for sake of Canada, for world, for idea of being a decent human being.
