Anyone who causes an accident on any of the harbour should be fined $1000 automatically . Its not rocket science to drive a motor vehicle in traffic . The speed limit is for ideal conditions ,switching lanes is ONLY when its safe to do so and does stop the people behind you or the people who are lane you going into . None of this people waving in and out of lanes . Just pay attention to person in front of you and if your in the wrong lane in the end —to F___King bad—correct the problem on the other side of the bridge . A $1000 fine would make people think or if cannot -think about taking a bus .Its time people take responsibility for their actions .
Finally who’s bright idea was it if you are North Street and you decide to go to the New bridge but you can’t because North Street only turns on to Barrington going towards downtown .
Just one accident on one of the bridges here ******** up everywhere in Halifax and Dartmouth .
I used enough gas to go 50 KM for a 4 Km trip all because someone else is irresponsible —Disgusted

Well OB hope you never cause an accident…
Yeah, right, OP, good luck with that.
Drivers are ruder, more selfish and impatient than they’ve ever been. Just count the number of times some other driver has fucked up and when you honk to make them aware they did, they give YOU the finger.
What’s that OB? You find out that you actually want to go to the new bridge when you’re already at North St?
“too F___King bad—correct the problem on the other side of the bridge”
Lollll m_kegg!
it’s actually not that far to get to the new bridge from north street op. Turn onto gottingen, go down toward that whole novalea thing and there is this ramp just near the mouth of bedford. Which, incidentally is as far as you would have had to go on barrington street. More or less. Maybe a bit further but nothing to get your underpants in a knot over.
Just buy a bike, OB. Then you can do whatever the fuck you want.
Crayons, I think OB means once they are past the point of no return,(already past gottingen). It’s not that big of a deal anyway, if they miss turning on gottingen, there’s still Brunswick. If all else fails though take the ramp heading south on barrignton, take your first right onto Artz, left onto Brunswick, right onto Uniake, and finally right onto Gottingen. Adding a whopping 2 mins to your trip (not exactly bitch worthy). Poorly planned streets seems to be a big problem in this city, I have been caught in many of their traps while driving, but usually once is enough, because next time I come up with a new route to avoid it.
Of course it’s not rocket science, OB, ya stupid mammal; it’s automobile science! You don’t drive a rocket across a bridge.
Pfft. Stupid people today. If I wasn’t so lazy I’d punch you in the stomach.
How the hell do you use that amount of gas when you are stopped due to an accident or at construction site or whatever? Most sane people turn off their engines until it is time to go.
Friggin’ eh, Bro Tim.
I like the idea of a fine but not $1000. Even a person with a good job, that could wipe out an entire paycheque. If you make it the same as a minor speeding ticket, i’d vote for it.
Lemmy drinks a bottle of whiskey a day, but he can take it, because he’s God. 😛
Sometimes it is possible to shut off your vehicle and wait, but other times it just doesn’t work out like that. Like when you move an inch, stop for 5 seconds, move another inch, stop for 13 seconds, oh wow! you get to move ten inches this time! Stop for 7 seconds……. I guess you could stop and start you’re engine every time, but having to replace a worn out starter isn’t cheap either.
And also, because when Lemmy takes the MacDonald, he doesn’t piss around:

Lemme guess, ‘matron:
“@#$%!@#$%^&*ing Mobile App!”
I don’t think he can take the macdonald…
strict weight limit n all.
Then again, who’s going to stop him? Bridge commission? ppppppffffffttttttttt.
I specifically take alternate bus routes when I hear of accidents on the bridge.
It usually involves more walking but a hell of a lot less sitting on a bus waiting 4 lights just to get through an intersection. With only 5 major arteries to enter/exit this city…
Bane would have this bitch locked down in no time.
Take out the bridges, windsor street exchange, rotary, and 102 ramp and we’d be screwed.
Fairview would be even more of a crazy place.
“None of this people waving in and out of lanes.”
They’re just being friendly OP, no need to get upset about it.
HAHA! You used 50KM of gas for a 4Km trip! Stupid car people!
“You used 50KM of gas”
He also made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs.
Stoopid Han Solo. Hurr Durr.

Easy there Keptin, no need to unleash hell, just yet. I was mocking Sebastameat for using a measurement to distance to describe a unit of volume, that’s all.
It’s not like I called “this cat Shaft” a “bad mutha”, or anything heinous like that.
*Phew* Apologies for the overreaction, Sir. You can understand though why Captain Solo would be so important to The Captain
He’s a bit of a role model, admittedly.
And it’s a little late, but one of those links should have looked like this…

That is my new, favorite GIF… kaBOOOOOOOM
And I was gonna say, you’re going to go a little over budget getting TWO Mechagodzillas…
Surely one would suffice.
