I took the Hope/Princeton 2 weeks ago for a hockey tournament. Back in the day I would be hitting the corners at maximum velocity. But with the wife and kids in the truck it went from fun, to terrifying in an instant.
That's a horrible highway to take in the winter.

That is all. | By that logic, women in Saudi Arabia shouldn't be complaining about getting busted when caught driving. It's called civil disobedience over unfair laws. The penalties for speeding far far exceed the risk to society.

It's the stretch just north of Lion's Bay, where it's twisty as fuck because it's too tight to widen to four lanes. It's one lane in each direction, with no centre divider.
Even some cones bolted to the pavement on the centre line would be a start.... but nooooo.... | Sure, let's blame the road and not shitty driving combined with shitty vehicles.

Why would it work better if the speed limit were raised if this is the result? I don't know the current accident/death toll caused by speed on this road, but I can imagine it's high enough to meritt the speed limit. | Shouldn't have cheaped out on tires. Live and learn.

Try to be civil guys, if people want to come in here and post non-sense just leave them be.
People who genuinely want their questions regarding the speed limit on the S2S and even elsewhere in BC feel free to post and we can answer all your questions (hopefully).

i think marco made some good points, except the saudi arabia comparison but everyone has brain farts. i dont think you guys seem to realize that you actually agree with each other.
soundy:
-speed if you want to, know your limits
-dont whine about getting tickets for breaking the law
marco:
-its not the road, its the driver and car
-have good, proper equipment (tires)
agreed with all these points but i dont think womens rights and speeding are in the same category

Nobody of any gender, race, size, shape, orientation, religion, creed, flavor, or intelligence level, has the inalienable RIGHT to drive on the public roads in Canada, or most of the civilized world, for that matter.
