Davey Boy 2.0 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 A 38-year-old Chatham man is charged with dangerous driving after allegedly burning rubber and doing a doughnut in front of Chatham-Kent police Wednesday afternoon. Police said officers were conducting radar enforcement on Longwoods Road just outside Riverside Estates. The accused allegedly drove up to the front gate entrance and laid down a track of rubber, squealed his tires and did his stunt. The accused told officers that he was on private property and there was nothing they could do, police said. He was charged and police remind citizens that criminal driving offences are applicable anywhere, including on private property. Const. Ron Tricker said the dangerous driving charge was warranted in this case because of where the offence took place. "This was the front parking lot of a community," he said, noting people and vehicles can be expected to be coming and going in that area. He said demolition derbys and off-roading in a field aren't usually considered dangerous driving because the activity is contained and there isn't that expectation of members of the public getting in harm's way.

Maybe the stunt driver should hire the same lawyer who got Const. Ron Tricker off manslaughter charges... four years after being found guilty!

Davey Boy 2.0 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 A 55-year-old Chatham man has learned the hard way that an E-Bike is considered a motor vehicle under the Criminal Code. Chatham-Kent police received a call about 7:30 p.m. Tuesday from a concerned citizen who watched a man hit a curb, fall over and his head while operating an E-Bike. Police said a witness stated the man refused assistance, picked up his bike and continued on to The Beer Store in Richmond Street in Chatham. The caller followed the man and police located him on King Street West with a case of beer strapped to the E-Biike. The man exhibited signs of impairment and was arrested, police said. The accused was charged with impaired driving and failing to provide a breath sample. He was released with a future court date and his vehicle was towed from the road, police said.__________________________Chatham-Kent police had no problems arresting a robbery suspect early Saturday morning. Police report a 28-year-old Chatham man walked into the Sunoco gas bar on Park Avenue East in Chatham around 4 a.m. and demanded cash from an employee. When officers arrived, the man was standing with his hands behind his back, waiting to be arrested, police said. He charged with robbery and taken into custody for a bail hearing.

peipunk Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Pffft. You ain't got nothing on the serious problems we have here on PEI. Check out this story I sent to Booche not too long ago: Roundabout Courtesy Causes Confusion Islanders have been having trouble adjusting to a new Charlottetown roundabout, in part because they're too courteous for their own good.The roundabout on Allen Street opened two weeks ago.City officials aren't surprised to hear of drivers stopping in the middle of the traffic circle to let people in."We would consider ourselves, Canadians and Maritimers, to be a courteous type of people," said Paul Johnston, the city's manager of public works. "Just in generally driving the roads, you'll often see people that will yield their own right of way to others and wave them on." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peipunk Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Oh, the horror:Irma Gallant said people have waved her throughout the roundabout."I had the yield, and I yielded. But they said 'go.' So, I don't know if I was supposed to go or not, but I did."Drivers, in fact, are not supposed to stop in the roundabout.Johnston said he's hopeful people will get the hang of it soon.
