Did you miss FordWatch?

It's dangerous driving again, though this time, with a shocking twist: It turns out that the Honourable Wife-Beater can actually read.

Sgt. Tim Burrows proves himself to be one of the few decent cops out there with the following snark:

On behalf of all the citizens of Toronto that value road safety, Mr. Mayor ... please get a driver. It is obvious that you are busy enough to require one and no amount of money you are saving by not having one is worth the life of one of your citizens.

The less fun cops made him change the statement to end at "please get a driver."

On behalf of all of the citizens of Toronto (particularly us vulnerable pedestrians), Toronto police, please arrest this man before he kills someone. Seriously, I might be an ex-anarchist but I strongly believe in traffic laws. Like, even in my perfectly harmonious utopia, there would still have to be some sort of law enforcement around hurtling death machines. Apparently a driver must commit three separate offences before being charged under the Highway Traffic Act (really? Because just one can get someone killed) but according to this same article, Ford has committed at least three this year.

Yes, I missed Fordwatch. Glad (is that the correct feeling?) to have it back.

I approve of Sgt. Tim Burrows.
