As for sport mode, it'll allow you to spin the tires more to help correct with the throttle, but be warned that if you gas it to much you'll spin out of control. Its up to you, but I usually drive in sport mode in heavier snow.
I've tried spinning on purpose in sport mode and no dice. Would take some serious talent to do that!

The tail light chasers do traffic on 400 series, the door shakers do criminal.
BUT ! either has complete authority, they just don't like goin to court on their day off so they hold you and wait for the right colour of monkey suit, for his court and schedule.
In some jurisdictions, the county mounties aren't allowed to use 400 series highways unless on an urgent call, but I wouldnt take a chance LOL !

Primarily, they handle the 400 series of highways, but they have jurisdiction anywhere in the province as it's all covered by the OHTA, so they can pull you over anywhere. (obviously they can't charge you with an OHTA offense if you're on private property)

But the buggers can get you for squeal tires (municipal bylaw, noise), drifting, (C.C.C. Dangerous driving) etc. , on private property.

Yes they can, but usually unless you're being a serious idiot about it, they'll check your papers and not care.

Yeah, they don't care.
Most of the Mississauga Conurbation O.P.P. only care about collecting speed tax, and avoiding collisions through enforcement (the more serious the collision the more serious the paperwork !).

They do not do any criminal enforcement unless it's a criminal driving offence (but they are the only cops to get full auto machine guns in every marked cruiser, and ceramic barrier vests that only swat cops get) !

It seems that collecting speeding tax is more dangerous than chasing criminals.

Saw a black frs w/4th brake light turning at left from winston churchill onto thomas st. at about 7:50 tn, those HIDs are crazy bright…
Was in my SUV so i figured waving/flashing the lights wasn't appropriate

I do not know Quang but it is possible. Windows were tinted but it looked like the person inside was Asian. Probably did not see me as it was dark. Next time I will flash my headlights before saying hi. Just don't want to annoy anyone..

It was me, and yeah I wasn't paying attention, I was on a phone conversation. I usually always wave or say hi when I spot another fellow driver
