    Default watch out on the roads today

    i havent seen this many cops and photoradar on the roads in a very long time as i have today, so watch out and keep your speed down, they are nabing people all over the place, in driving just a bit so far i have seen atleast 5 photoradar traps (mostly radar guns) and cops driving all over the place and alot of ghost cars, so keep an eye out!

    Is this all of Calgary? In the NW I rarely see one but good to know anyway.

    And are all ghost cars either charger's/Ford pickup/crowns or are there some other models too?

    I thought they were chevy pickups...like the colorado or whatever...and they have the mesh grill behind the backwindow to make it look like a work truck. Ive also seen intrepid ghosts

    The other day I saw a black, late 90s Malibu that had someone pulled over on the side of 14th. Never seen that one before.

    The cops have been sitting on 22X near 52nd St SE quite a bit lately.

    On my way back from Spokane they pulled over some ricer in a green Cavalier that only minutes before decided to fly-by a bunch of us while going 120+

    It was pretty funny to see his ass pulled over.
