Piece of crap, I got a multinova ticket in the mail and the picture shows that it isn't even my car, some freaking old school American boat. Where the hell do these clowns get their eyes checked!.

 

What is a multinova ticket?

 

It is photo radar.

 

oh.... We don't have that here.. other than one intersection when you blow a red light..

 

I hate that darn multinova. Me thinks it really is a cash cow for the city. Sure, fear of it enhances traffic safety, but not when the cameras are set up in the same place everyday

Those donut eaters, they just have nothing better to do.

 

Speakin' of donut eaters......................................
We went to a residential alarm the other day. Not long after we got back to the hall, the home owner shows up with a full box of DONUTS!!!!!??????
WHAT WAS HE THINKIN'? I'm afraid he mistook us for cops or something, however, them babies disappeared almost before he even left the hall.

 

Wow, someone more cuddly than I am owes Asif a hug. Imagine, him not towing the party line like that... Awesome. Way to go man! I've been saying the same thing for ages!!!

 

Actually, I'm a big fan of the multanova. No demerits, no insurance hike, and they're painfully obvious, especially when they can't ding you until you're past them. Sure beats coming over the crest of a hill and getting nailed by laser.

 

Here in Winnipeg we have several red light cameras that are enabled for photo radar as well as five (I think) mobile units.

It's not too much of a problem because the intersections are well posted from every direction, even though only one direction is equipped with the camera.

You have to be pretty foolish to blast through one of these lights when they are posted that well but they still make a lot of revenue.

In Manitoba, legislation is in place that only allows photo radar nearby parks, playgrounds, schools and construction zones. The key word is "nearby".

There are still problem areas on our ring roads that theoretically can not be patrolled in this manner because the above conditions do not exist.
