Well, I was proven to be correct.
Pathetic...but, not a surprise. If you visited or live in Vancouver, you'd know. There are peeps half your age or barely can see over the dash driving in a car 2-3 times over your paygrade. Everywhere in that city.

HAHA! that is an idiotic law with zero fairness. if that was attempted to be implemented in a given state it would require a turnover of 100s of laws, followed by a public uproar. if the "state" / "district" / "public embodiment" etc, etc. is going to irrevocably seize vehicles for profit, then they need to enforce some type of parameter to value the worth of what is seized. if the cars were crushed, it would be one thing, but they are taken in as revenue. you cannot enforce a $20,000 penalty for i.e. a civic-owner and then a $400,000 penalty for i.e. a lambo-owner - if both were to be breaking the same law under identical circumstances. do you realize how outrageous that is? you might as well fine ppl based on their tax brackets.
no, i dont have pity for the drivers - they knew the consequences. the law is just so simplistically radical and unfair - in an american's perspective. this would make for a good case study in a BAR exam - it really opens the flood gates.

In all seriousness, I think the Swiss actually do that. There was someone who got pulled over in an SLR for speeding and got charged $100,000 or something like that, because he's a multi-millionaire. It's slightly understandable, because a $60 ticket wouldn't really discourage him from speeding.

lol. If you go to Richmond you'll occasionally see the 20 year-old girl driving a new R8 well under the speed limit, the 19 year-old guy with a spanking new R8 V10, or the middle-aged Chinese lady driving a Bentley/Maserati.

FWIW, Finland and some of the other Scandinavian countries do this with moving violations-- fines based on income.

In Germany, the bike thing happens on the Autobahn, but you can only top out at a certain speed before it gets unstable. Plus, you could have a 911 or S Class crawl up your behind at 160 MPH, and you'll be in a world of hurt. More sane there.

Whats up with RDX owners?

Why did the drivers receive money from the sale? Even though its a small amount that they received, they shouldnt have gotten anything back IMO.

Ouch sounds like your recruiter took you for a walk...
Damnsit I had a feeling it was Hongers out on a run. Let me apologize on behalf of my Asian side. Most of us aren't spoiled, wreckless and stuck in community college for 12 years...

On the base, it says 35Km/h I do 35. But even here, on a small base, Americans like to speed (relative that is, 45 in a 35) and I'll brake check and stick my arm out the window and point to the "35" signs.
If these two were doing this in Montana, on about 100 miles of interstate that will only kill themselves, then let them do it. But in an area where there are ANY pedestrians? Yeah, take the cars and if I were the judge, I'd let them sit in jail for 3 months. 2nd offense is 2 years. IMHO.
