Pipelines Costing More & BC Toothless on Excessive Speeders
Chapter 1:
-The problem plagued pipeline will cost you $1.9 billion dollars more to build (price tag now stands at $9.3 billion), and it’s estimated it’ll take a year longer to construct (new completion date December 2021). The developments were contained in filings by Kinder Morgan lawyers to the US Security and Exchange Commission.
Chapter 2:
-Last week, a pair of 22 year old men were busted driving at excessive speeds in their luxury, high powered sports cars on the Lougheed Highway between Maple Ridge & Mission (apparently on their way to the racetrack..). One guy was on his N Plates. Both drivers, one in a Lamborghini (worth $450,000) and the other in a McLaren (worth $190,000), were clocked doing 50kms over the speed limit (doing 138kms an hour). Both had been busted for speeding in the past. Each escaped with a $368 fine, incurred three points, and their respective cars were seized for seven days. So does a $360 fine really serve as a deterrent to these people? That’s how much it would cost to fill up one of those cars with gas! How do BC’s penalties compare to other provinces/states of the US?
