| hefty fine | солидный штраф ("... The man, driving an Acura, found himself in the sights of Greenwood RCMP doing laser speed enforcement near the Ellis Avenue exit on the evening of March 9, where his vehicle was clocked doing 174 km/h in an 80 km/h zone. The driver was handed a hefty fine of $483 and had his car impounded for a week." "Hefty fine??? We are not selling Glad garbage bags here. The car should be forfeitured and either destroyed or auctioned. Until fines start at $1,000 and go upwards nothing will change. Driving at that speed is just as serious as firing a gun. You will kill someone eventually, even if it is yourself." ART Vancouver) |
