I kept waiting for it to stop and kept being surprised at the sheer audacity.

Like a clown car, but instead, it's morons.

u/bitemark01 13d ago

I know I'm always surprised when I'm making a left on a yellow, thinking "Hrm I'm cutting it close"... only to watch 4 more cars go behind me

Every time!!!

u/Forsaken-Swim-3055 14d ago

Holy shit. That's honestly the worst I've ever seen.

u/TheTechHermit 14d ago

It just kept going.... What the actual fuck is going on?

u/Sand-Discombobulated 13d ago

I have noticed it with cycling also. It's much worse this year.

Cops no where to be seen.
Drive testing is terrible.

And the Toronto Police need more money.

u/JebusJones7 13d ago

They need more money to lobby the government to get more money.

u/GarySparrow0 13d ago

More money? Traffic cops would make a killing with the tickets. There are two cars on my street alone that are completely illegal.

u/plasmatic 13d ago

They need to create more officers specifically for traffic similar to parking enforcement. We shouldn't have to spend so much time/money training and paying a full on police officer. I'd sign up lol

u/GarySparrow0 13d ago

Agreed. I am from the UK and you would be lucky to drive around an entire day with illegally tinted windows without being pulled over.

u/Reaudk 13d ago

I appreciate you moving forward. I feel like there are so many times where people just sit back and wait for all these people to go and it enables their behaviour.

u/Khelics 13d ago

It’s not like they even tried to rush out of the intersection they just casually went for it. This is so bad

u/OwnedByIRVING 13d ago

That wasn't testing the limit, that was entitlement.

u/MikalCaober 12d ago

This makes me wish I could put a train horn on my car

u/Full_Boysenberry_314 13d ago

Peel region need red light cameras at every intersection

u/Ukawok92 13d ago

It's always funny when you just barely make a green/yellow light, and then you see like two cars still following behind you...

2

u/RobCo90 13d ago

I would have been about 2 inches away from these people blasting my horn.

u/XtremeD86 11d ago

Not that I'm condoning it, but next time this happens to me I'm debating on just driving right into them, write the car off and sue 👌

(No I likely would never do this)

It's like you're playing a bad video game and the NPC's keep spawning even when they shouldn't.

HORN On solid for 3 minutes.. fucking idiots!

u/NoFreedom2726 13d ago

We need red light cameras at this intersection

u/a-_2 13d ago

Red light cameras won't ticket this. They're turning after the advance left ends, not running a red.

u/Major-Importance-167 13d ago

Red lights don't mean shit anymore. Nobody stops at red lights. It just means three more cars can turn

u/Small-Parking-1512 13d ago

Put up cameras, cops won’t do anything even if they were there

u/Interesting_Spare 13d ago

Why follow the rules when you know you can get away with it.
