Another one?? I feel like theirs a different crash every other day. The roads are fine so it just boils down to bad drivers. Apparently PG is full of them!
Try riding a motorcycle Mr Schwarzenegger. You need to be hyper vigilant due to the poor driving habits displayed by local drivers. PG certainly has its fair share of bad drivers.
I fully agree, especially at this time of year. Most motorists are not attuned yet to watching out for motorcycles. Ride safely Merc.
As a smaller large city the bad drivers tend to stand out like a sore thumb, Kamloops has way worse drivers IMO and don’t get me started on Kelowna but it is all relative every city complains about its drivers and how they are the worst and how many accidents there are and so on.
Next to the roads this is probably the biggest single complaint in every city how bad their drivers are compared to xx city. I don’t have the ICBC stats atm but last year both Kamloops and Kelowna recorded considerably more accidents than in PG and all 3 cities have the same issue the police can’t be everywhere
Motorcycles… Friend of mine Used to ride one until this year…he lives in Red Deer and had 7 close calls last summer.. It’s just not in PG..but everywhere has bad drivers
Hmm. Driving west towards that intersection, the left turning lane is not, I believe, in the appropriate position related to the traffic island. it can be a very confusing corner, particularly in the winter when viz is poor.
I drove through the school zone on old cariboo with the L on the back, daughter driving. A car came flying up behind and almost pushed us down the road in front of the school. If I could have climbed on the trunk I could have touched the piece of shits car. What the hell is wrong with people and for the love of god, slow down , look around, pay attention. it is REALLY EASY to do :)
It’s also because a lot of driving schools say we will show you the test route so you can your road test. These guys have no respect for the road. Just out to make a fast buck. There is one driving school in town when he picks a new student he always says every lesson is road test. This guy only shows how to pass the rod test but not how to stay alive on the road. This guys buys a new driving school every year because it gets smashed quite often. He go t-boned about 3 weeks ago and he stopped displaying his school logo on the door of the because he was to embarrassed and top it with he is Graduated Licensing Program school and is approved by ICBC. He barley knows any English. I saw another accident on 16 and Ferry Saturday night. A taxi guy in a hurry to get no where. WE HAVE A LOT OF STUPID DRIVERS ON THE ROAD IN EVERY CITY.
You should try reading your statements before you post them. They hardly make sense, with so many words missing or misspelled.
An appropriate quote from the comment: “He barley knows any English”
But I’ll bet he makes a mean vegetable soup, gopg2015! :-p
This looks more like Boundary Road and Highway 16.
