| Topic | Goddamn the cost for traffic violations has gotten completely out of control |
| zebatov 07/10/18 8:42:34 PM #83: | Yeah? You think that's bad? Try losing your license for drinking in BC. You're looking at a $500 reinstatement fee. $700 30-day impound plus tow. Interlock system installed in any vehicle you drive (including for work - explain that to your boss) which costs hundreds of dollars each month for any period they want to put you through it (usually six months). A safe-driving course that costs $900. And if you can't afford the impound fees, they apply to have your vehicle crushed, sue you for the amount owing, and then apply for you to never be able to get insurance on any vehicle or your license back again, nation-wide. Ever. Over a fucking towing company not getting their $600+ impound fees from you. Try doing all that while on disability. You're fucked. The punishment should fit the crime and monetary penalties need to be removed, otherwise the police may as well start carrying debit machines. Yeah, there's something not right about that. The only way I've thought of to get out of all of that is to renounce your citizenship and then come back into the country like everyone else. At which point you'd be issued a new SIN and a new record because you'd be a new citizen that just so happens to have the same details as someone who lived there before. --- lolmodhagomi ...
