Reading the local media, he was originally charged with dangerous driving which is a federal criminal offence in Canada. The careless driving looks like a plea bargain to get a conviction on a lesser careless driving charge under Ontario provincial traffic law.

I'm sure that the boy racer can fill in the details.

Not to feed the fire, but the news video and much more information is posted in the article below. Screen shots of the forum were on the news! I wonder who's posts they quoted!

Yea, i read about that...i really wish it wasn't so easy to lessen the charge, but at least it was still something big.

Vlad, hows not being able to drive your beloved M5?


Thanks for the link Lomag

Keep in mind, as you say, this all is PUBLIC...
So, the one who filed the report doesn't need to be a member of our community. It can also be a lurker. Even if they say it was a member, it can only ba a lurker...
Probably not, but... I'm just sayin'... don't judge too quickly...

Doh, so I guess it couldn't have been me that phoned in.

Obviously we are not privileged to the inside details, but I bet the cops probably interviewed and asked around the neighborhood. Plus don't we have a member that literally lives a block from him? Additionally, somehow I get the feeling that this antic wasn't a one time thing, so maybe several neighbors witnessed it, etc.
