Yes, that’s a squirrel. No, it’s not worth having someone rear-end you over.

Not sure how to sum this up... “Dickhead tow truck driver”, “extraordinarily competent tow truck driver to wring that thing out like that”, or “wow everyone really sucks hard when a semi-tow truck can jump them off the lights.

Oh come on, Mustangs aren’t THAT heavy

Maybe it was looking for a Challenger.

Gif 1: Just did this the other day with a huge raccoon that ran across the street out of no where.

Gif 2: I can GUARANTEE the person in the lane next to him is completely unaware that huge trucks need to turn from the outside and likely would have tried to either beat the truck to the turn or foolishly started honking at the truck once it was turning into their lane.

I debate the idea that a rental car is the fastest car in the world. Flatbed towtrucks are ridiculously fast, all the time.

1. Racoon, yes. Squirrel, no. Canada Goose... floor the gas.

2. That sentence just about broke my brain. What are you saying? For the record there are not 2 turn lanes there.

Trucks with long wheel bases generally require an extra lane to be able to make sharp turns which most people dont realize.

You’re in Toronto from what I gather? Are you in the Torontoppo FB group?

Sadly all my close encounters were in the dark last night. And merging onto a 70mph highway at FORTY FIVE doesn’t translate well into gif format.

I used to make the claim that dump trucks were the sports cars of trucks. After all, they’re pretty powerful, relatively compact and are empty about 50% of the time, all the while being piloted by drivers who tend to be in a hurry. Now though I think I need some heirarchy adjustments:

1. Semi Tow Trucks. Have to haul heavy vehicles so need tons of power, but are compact and unloaded the majority of the time. Also tow truck drivers need to be the first on scene to make $$$, so they’re always in a rush.

2. Dump trucks for the reasons above, only moving down the list because they are loaded more often.

3. Medium duty trucks equiped as flatbed tows. All the advantages of #1 but with less power to use. Also they are often just transporters rather than hunters so that takes an edge off.

Maybe the tow truck received a call for a broken cement truck...

Ah. I don’t think they’d need it here though. Big intersection. In fact he’s probably making it worse for himself by going that far out.

I put it down to the “Tow Truck Driver Rush”

that’s a tow truck which tows heavy trucks, so operators will tend to opt for the most powerful engine option offered. that thing scooted.

I am in TO, but I don’t facebook. And I have no intentions of starting.

Oppo is a big enough waste of time already :)

No. Speed doesn’t show well on camera. There’ve been so many situations where I’ve decided that somebody’s clip what getting saved, and then deciding there was no point because it didn’t look like they were doing anything wrong.

On the one hand I want a camera with a GPS speedo, on the other that could be incriminating...

and a lot of them have automatic transmissions now, so they get moving a lot faster.

Oh I thought it was two turn lanes!

Takuro Spirit > Smallbear wants a modern Syclone, local Maple Leafs spammer
10/07/2016 at 12:26

I throw out SO MANY CLIPS because either it looks farther away or slower than it was, or for some reason the camera didn’t pick up the lack of a turn signal or something of that nature.

Smallbear wants a modern Syclone, local Maple Leafs spammer > Takuro Spirit
10/07/2016 at 12:28

Or because it was too far away to catch properly on camera due to the wide angle even though you thought it was quite close and obvious...

and so on...

Today on WOPPO news; Local millionaire bus enthusiast continues to cause trouble for the neighborhood.

I thought I was on my way to work, but this joker dropped me off in front of a sex toy store!

Sharon was only trying to take her daily journey to work, but little did she know, she was in for the ride of her life.

And the worst part was the puns! ‘Welcome to the corner of Richard and Johnson, mam!’ Really? He even said ‘I guess you’re boned then!’ before pulling away! I want that son of a -BLEEEP- ch’s name. I’m suing him for sexual harassment, or something!

The police department has be inundated with requests to stop the mad bus driver, but they say it’s not that easy.

He’s very good at camouflaging. We’ve pull over several buses only to find a normal driver and passengers. We just can’t catch him. He’s hiding in plain sight.

Many in the community are tired of the millionaire’s antics, but some are a little delighted.

Come on now, people. He’s just having a little fun. It’s odd, sure. But he isn’t hurting anyone. I think it’s kinda funny!

This is Hugh Jazz reporting for Local WOPPO.

I know the animals one gets tricky. I’ve seen frogs just chilling in the road and some move away quick, & others are apparently stoned and don’t move. Now my car isn’t oppo level, meaning I can do all the evasive maneuvers I want but the car doesn’t always respond the same way.

TL:DR I may have run over some frogs, but you know it is what it is. Sorry amphibians. :P
