    Probably a middle aged white guy.

    Experiences may vary but the stupidest moves I've seen have been by middle aged white guys, not the so called 'new Canadians'. Sure I've seen some dumb moves by them too but no more than what's proportionate.

    As a proud Canadian who's father was an immigrant and who's mother's parents were both immigrants it makes my blood boil when people spew the 'new Canadian' bull. The large majority of us are only a generation or two removed from 'the old' country yet the tolerance we show to more recent immigrants would suggest otherwise.

    rant over, carry on

    Canadian four wheelers with Ontario plates are the worst....They must teach new drivers the best way to pass someone is to split between two trucks about an inch from death.

    Kind of offended by that actually. I think we are all pretty tolerant in this hemisphere. Pretty #### sure I wouldn't be tolerated as well over there.

    As for the driving part, I think they spend alot of time on the phone with the feet n the dash and don't seem to care where they park.

    And is it too much to ask to wear a poppy?

    In a situation like that.... a 3rd lane prohibition does NOT scare me. Before I'd do something totally unsafe and dangerous as our perp did , I'd surely go "blink blink" and scoot along my merry way in the far left.

    Most LEO'S are reasonable roadside when you calmly explain to them your reasoning for WHY you do what you do. If a momentary 3rd lane violation eliminates an obvious volatile problem then most reasonable officers will let you go with a verbal.

    If not.... write it.

    It's not worth arguing about , or getting my BP elevated while getting brake checked by a Richard Noggin in a mini van clogging the highway daydreaming, or even worse , ON PURPOSE.

    Once again!! If you so called professionals can't deal with the pressures of driving then it's time to find a new career. True professional drivers don't want you out here. The public doesn't want you out here!! Guess you road bullies must have been bullied growing up so now it's your turn. Big tough truck driver huh ? Lol. Low life worthless americans. Must be trying to feel good about themselves being a big tough truck driver. I report everyone that drives retarded around me or anyone else. Dash cam shows it all.
