Of course, it's got to be the speed since there's never been a death on the Coq before.

What pisses me off the most though is that the media ghouls are making the unfortunate death of these 3 people a political issue rather than news story which just goes to show how far our media outlets have sunk.

No more unbiased stories just innuendo and supposition well done The Province for keeping your journalistic standards lower than anyone ever expected.

This crash had nothing to do with speed, it was just a normal BC driver doing what they do best, driving poorly.

It makes no difference what the speed limit is.

There will always be people that will go over it.

There will always be people that will go under it.

There will always be a hundred other factors that can contribute to accidents.

the multi-vehicle crash that closed the highway at the Great Bear Snowshed

It seems to me that that is a section of that highway that is a frequent one for accidents. It's one of the few sections that has a few curves.

It was always amazing; cross the Rockies, forget every skill involved in driving a car.

I'm always amazed how often here in Calgary the most shitty and aggressive drivers on our roads end up having a BC plate on their vehicle. Like we don't have enough home-grown shitweeds of our own around here. Fuckers!

[xerxes]

We BC'ers say the exact same thing about Alberta drivers.

[Thanos]

It's fun to hate each other, but you really shouldn't be rude and block our pipelines when we generously allow so many of your dope peddlers come rocketing our here to drop off their product.

[herbie]

The ones that go 10 km under the limit, 140 kmh in the right lane when there's a passing lane (and then think the guy on the left has to merge), pull over on blind curves and the crest of hills and double solid lines and have their brake lights on going downhill?
Don't forget to slow down for that curve on the freeway, or you'll roll over and burn!
If you're one of those, I guess we are fucking aggresive drivers....

[Thanos]

Doing 20 over the limit in the right lane and still get tailgated by some asshole too fucking stupid and belligerent to use the wide-open left lane? That seems to be the new trick that too many of the fucking fucktards (no matter which province's license plate they have on their vehicle) are now doing these days.

Yup. I've been run off the road more than once on my way to Banff by Alberta Drivers trying to get home and why anyone would want to hurry back to Alberta is beyond me.

[Thanos]

The excessive taxes in socialist-stupid BC are so painful, in a rectally-speaking sort of way, that we're usually in a rush to get home to sit on an icepack.

Impossible. Crispy Clark is a Socred or at least that's what some people on this forum would have us believe because. If she was a Liberal she'd be taxing the people of BC into the poor house and she obviously isn't since she's managed to keep taxes low as long as you don't count outrageous user fees on everything including the

[Unsound]

Thanos, perhaps out of compasssion, has also neglected to mention that half those Alberta plates in BC have BC drivers. The bad driving likely stems from the fact they couldn't afford a car when they still lived and, barely, worked in BC
