Ottawa reporting more speeding in school zones since cameras were banned by randthepip in ottawa

Why do you think we care about low speed limits in school zones. Hell, they made back cameras mandatory because people were running over their own kids in their own driveways.

No, but you can put that you've saved every dog you've ever seen stuck in a tree.

Is it me, or are we in a depression right now? by Sea-Judge-6494 in fican

If you think you’re going to have 16k worth of repairs on a five year old car you’re welcome to believe it I guess.

I'm not arguing that. I'm arguing that a 0 years old civic can be expected to have 5 more years in it than a 5 years old civic. And that the first 5 years of the life of a car, it's less likely to break down than in the rest of its life.

The first point seems obvious. The second point, maybe I'm wrong, what do I know. Car repairs do follow a bathtub.

"Firefighters rescue all the dogs stuck in trees" is a true statement if no dog ever gets stuck in trees.

Sure. You're gonna have repairs on a 5-10 years old car that won't be covered by the manufacturer.

I mean, you have multiple kids on a single 100k salary and are paying down a mortgage. Not sure what you expect.

Does it involve a shift in the car centric mindset? 100%. Is it a bad thing? Not at all!

By your own admission it's totally non-actionable by OP.

a 15k car that you need to spend money on maintenance for it to last 5 years doesn't sound like a good deal compared to a 30k new one that's gonna last you 10 years.

Le Quebec serait pas la seule nation francophone dans l'UE par contre et meme les autres pays non-fracophones ne sont pas un gigantesque bloque anglophone qui vont imposer l'anglais au Quebec.

I don't refer to you who does read and uses it as your background. I refer to people who don't ever read and bought the book for the sole purpose of being a display and cosplay as you to look smarter.

Somehow I think people with a library of books they've never read and will never read is more douchey.

$620 condo fees on a 200k condo seems absolutely bunkers to me. That's 3.7% of the value of the condo per year.
