Even if they write if off, I'll be buying it back and having it repaired.
I'm the 2nd owner, and it's history is fully documented.
I figure I'll be keeping it for a long time, and come time when I have a family and need a house and such, it won't be a massive financial burden.

Just have to wait for ICBC to do the estimate, then I have to pick a body shop.

I've heard and seen great things about the body shop at the Fraser Wharves. They aren't fast and I don't care. Their work is beautiful.

No.2 road bridge, late night, often, especially by the weekends.

Russ Baker way, whenever, often, like to hide along that road by the runway and BCIT place, both sides, for speeders.

Arthur Lang bridge, day, sometimes, under the overpass before Arthur Lang bridge, northbound, they also do it in rush hour to catch people using the HOV lane.

Hazelbridge, night, sometimes, by Aberdeen centre they like to roadblock there.

Cambie road, day, haven't seen them for some time while I'm here though, by the middle of The Oaks town house area for speeders, both sides.

Kwantlen road and Alexandra, night, often, there's usually cops around as the Pho restaurant is open late and most people go to that area at night.

No. 4 road, whenever, seldom, by the Army centre, it was a known hide out for them.

River road, day, don't know if they do it anymore, but they catch people don't full stop for the 4 way stop by Cambie road.

River road, night, seldom, less in pass few years I've seen, but it's still a good spot for them to hide as there's not much light and people usually go over limit...

91 Highway, day time, random, radar gunning, last I've seen is by Knight st turn off for east bound and Cambie turn off for west bound...

Granville ave, night, J.N. Burnette highschool's parking lot (Granville and Railway) cops like to hide in the school parking lot.

you are a genius like MYSELF!!!

BANG ON WHAT I WANTED TO MENTION all spots are still hot -- faking cops... nothign better to do than taser airporters and pull over good citizens..man..


Kaydee: same here-- prolly after my vegas trip so feb 10th

^ That's cause I had it washed after one day of snow driving last time, I didn't want to leave the salt sitting on it for like a week. Today on the other hand ... I think I'll wait till it's stopped snowing and the roads are a little more clear before I have it washed again.


Anyone been out yet today? I just was, side roads are fun main roads are where it's at if you actually need to go somewhere.

LOL, my car is now sitting in the garage waiting for spring! When you only got summer tires on, there's nothing you can do but wait.
