@VoiceoverCop Clean driving record doesn't mean your above the law. Thats not the right attitude to have. Giving a ticket would have taught her a lesson.
English

The lucky ones get caught.
Yesterday, I witnessed a traffic stop that happened right in front of my parked vehicle. As the driver pulled into the parking lot, I could hear her through the open window telling a friend on speakerphone that she was about to get pulled over and had to go.
That immediately made me think she’d likely been on that call the entire time.
The officer explained that she had been stopped for running a red light and nearly causing a collision. After checking her documents, the officer decided to issue a warning instead of a ticket.
I spoke up and said, “You’re nicer than I am. I would’ve written the ticket.”
The driver immediately responded with, “But I have a clean driving record.”
And that’s exactly the problem.
A clean driving record doesn’t always mean someone is a safe driver. Sometimes it just means the behaviour has never been documented.
People often think distracted driving only means holding a phone in your hand. It doesn’t. You can absolutely be cognitively distracted while using hands-free or speakerphone features. Your eyes can be on the road while your brain is somewhere else entirely.
If we don’t measure behaviour, we can’t improve behaviour.
Tickets are not just about punishment. They create accountability. They create a documented history. They influence insurance rates. They identify patterns. They force people to reflect before that behaviour escalates into a serious collision that changes lives forever.
Warnings have their place, but when someone runs a red light while distracted and nearly causes a collision, is a warning enough?
What do you think?

@blogTO The cops shouldn't have pressed charges. That's over the top. It's a water gun not a real one!

There’s confusion after an Ontario resident was arrested for spraying someone with a water gun. Do you think this is fair? blogto.com/city/2024/09/c…
