OMG, so sorry to hear. I hope, whenever it happened, that you are OK.

There should be mandatory re-testing of your vehicle license. At LEAST every 10 years or even 5. The roads are filled with Canada's worst driver(s)! We all know people that could be on that show (friends/family)...just imagine how many we don't know!
There are also much more strict driving tests in other countries and should be adopted here....including emergency accident avoidance, and winter driving (ice/snow conditions)...which can be replicated as they do on the show.
It makes me shake my head every day when I drive down my street, that has vehicles parked on both sides, which is normal, and has PLENTY of room for 2 vehicles to pass each other going opposite directions.....but one of the vehicles ALWAYS STOPS!!!!! If you can stop on the street...without moving over (because you don't have to!)...then there is OBVIOUSLY room to keep DRIVING STRAIGHT!!!! WHY ARE THEY STOPPING???? they would definitely fail the "eye of the needle" challenge!!

i agree with that!

also think since we live in canada that everyone should learn how to drive in winter

just took an advance winter driving class on saturday, and wish everyone would go through that, and be tested on it before getting a license

the rain turned the courses into pure ice.....my poor car was sliding, and i had my foot on the brake
might post a video of trying to go around cones, and drifting and sliding at 10km/h

One of the guys on the show lives within 10 mins from me...

from burnaby I have seen him on the road before. He really really can't drive

If they can't be forced off the road, could we at least tag them like sharks off the coast of Australia? If they are within ~2KM of you and travelling more than 40km/h you should receive a warning message on your smart phone.

It's the responsible thing to do.
