The reality of it is is that it's every man for himself out there. No law is going to fix people, no amount of enforcement is going to fix people. Taking away a license won't fix people (there's nothing to stop them from driving anyway). On the other hand, look at Alberta. There is next to no enforcement hear and we also have a heck of a lot of hellish accidents.
You need to have some level of trust for the other drivers to drive correctly but we all know that there are those who haven't got a clue. I'm not sure where I'm going with this so I'll just stop typing.

What I'm curious about is how this will affect previous court cases of 50km/h over?
I have a 50km/h over ticket (Emergency reasons) and my court date is in Feb of 08... this new legislation will be effective on Sept 30th, 07. So when my court date comes, will they be judging/ruling me under the new legislation or old legislation? I got the ticket before this new legislation came out...
