Oof-Da! Canadians just as ignorant as Duhmericans

I used to think of Canada as "USA Lite" but...

AOL.com Article - Canada woman stops for ducks; guilty in 2 deaths

Geesh- the Brits aren't any better.

I mowed down 2 geese that were not moving from my path and got a warning from Henri co county. I got a lecture too, but I didnt think wild life was as valuable as a cat or dog?

[Frank Lee]

You are thumb-upping why?

Terrible situation all around.

For the woman for foolishly stopping her car in a highway lane where she shouldn't have, and for him (and his daughter) for not paying attention (not helped by traveling well over the posted limit).

[Frank Lee]

Agreed.

I'm just astonished at how many people think they should be allowed to mow down anything in their paths because they are on a highway. The laws clearly state you must be able to avoid hitting things in your path. If that means doing the speed limit or even less due to conditions, that's what it means. If that means you actually have to pull your head outta your arse when behind the wheel, that's what it means too.

i was in a near collision / car pile up for this exact reason , In Canada, I was driving down island on the 4 lane 120kmh freeway when a Stunned **** 2 cars ahead of me spots a family of ducks in her lane near the center divide and brakes hard , coming to a screeching stop , With 40 cars behind her .. The person ahead of me nails their brakes screeching to a stop , I hit my brakes hard and stop 1 ft from the car in front me , A pickup truck come to squealing stop 1ft behind me on & on & on..

The same half witted driver who killed those people is not alone , they breed.

[Frank Lee]

Who? The two on the bike? The bike's operator killed them.

I think she should get 10 years , to think about what she had done and the lifes she had taken , in her Stupidity..

wouldnt be a big story if the first car stopped for a moose, but the cyclist could have hit the car the same

[Frank Lee]

Let's say the car was stopped for... oh... a baby in the road. The bike would have nailed it just the same.
