Bikes

My friend and I were heading into Amherstburg last night when we came upon these bikers. We had to follow them for a few Km's since they decided to ride 2 to 3 across and when we could pass, we couldn't because they were riding on or over the middle line.
I believe there is a new law that states to legally pass a bike you must be at a greater distance, how can we when they decided to ride the line (again sometimes over the line)
FYI passenger took the picture

Driving 101 for idiots!

Not sure how you passed a drivers exam but apparently the section on pedestrian cross walks must have escaped your attention!

To the clueless girl driving the older Honda and the douche bag alongside her who had the audacity to hang his head and part of his body out the passenger side window in front of Sears to yell obscenities at me...when you are approaching those large yellow lines on the pavement it is YOUR responsibility to yield to pedestrian traffic not the other way around!

But hey, based on buddies mouth you may just have to hit someone before you finally learn that life lesson! For your own sake hopefully you don't mame or kill someone first.

Signed,

Learn the rules of the road

CRA tax phone scam

This has been going on for years, but my wife received a call last night that went to voice mail from someone claiming to be from the CRA saying that we owed them $3000.

She called the number back that they gave her (1-855-487-8483), and the person on the other end was continually insisting that she needed to pay this money, at one point saying that they would be sending the RCMP to our house to arrest her in the next half hour.

This is obviously not the CRA and if you search the phone number online you will see they have been doing this all over north America for a long time.

Don't forget, the CRA have all your financial information, if someone is demanding your SIN or something like that demand that they tell you what your income was last year, or 2 years ago. If they can't answer, they are NOT from the CRA. As well the CRA will send several notices by mail, culminating to a registered letter before they will ever threaten legal action or call you on the phone for immediate payment.

BE Mindful of Motorcyclists

I was riding my motorcycle down Arner TownLine last weekend and the car behind me was directly on my tail (about 2 feet of space between us). I was travelling about 85 km/ hr. (So, over the speed limit!). This is EXTREMELY dangerous for a motorcyclist and is EXTREMELY unnerving. PLEASE people, be respectful of those on bikes, share the road and keep some space. There have been too many motorcycle accidents already this season and they usually occur because motorists aren't respectful of bikes. To the jerk who was behind me...the world doesn't revolve around you!

bad behaviour

Just want to say to the yahoos sitting in center field last night at a little league baseball game...REALLY!!!!! How old are you? You are adult enough to know not to threaten 8/ 9/ 10 year olds...It was a playoff game...there was no need to act the way you did. You took the attention away from the game and made it a bad experience for everyone involved...WAY TO GO!!! Just wanted to let you know that you have been spotted!

DON'T LET THEM IN

There is a group of gentlemen in the South Windsor going door to door, insisting they need in your home to see your AC unit. They wave a badge in your face and are very aggressive. When my husband insisted they leave, they began swearing at him. We've reported them but this is a reminder to all homeowners, DON'T LET STRANGERS IN YOUR HOME.

Purse Theft Spree At Metro

So there have been many reports (to Metro staff) about purses being stolen from peoples shopping carts at Metro (formerly A& P) on Tecumseh Road East and Central (Central Mall). I want to stop this from continuing, and the police don't seem to be doing anything.
