Man's Logic
Yesterday whilst driving my MIL back to Calgary airport 
My hubby got pulled over for the 2nd time in 3 weeks for speeding.
He was fined $238 (the 1st time he was fined $177).
His comment to me (whilst I'm trying sooo hard not to mention that he has been pulled over for speeding for the 2nd time in 3 weeks).
'At least it's more exciting than getting caught by a camera....You get a light show and everything.'

He knows the signs aren't miles per hour right?

Re: Man's Logic
Yeah he does! his second line of logic was...
'Oh I know! It's because it's a weekday! We are usually only out and about at the weekends.....'
Work that one out!

It's not just the $415 in fines you may very well see an increase in the insurance premiums when it comes time for renewal.

Re: Man's Logic
Then hopefully that will be lesson enough for him?!?!?! Because so far it hasn't slowed him down.
As for getting points Flo&Jim. The 1st time he was stopped he was threatend with losing his licence as he was that far over the limit (over 50 clicks over the limit). I think if you challenge the fine at court you have a greater chance of getting points, so far he has escaped that.
