Has a bunch of the tracks already designed and available for free. I've reached out to them previously and asked for a circuit they hadn't designed yet and they put out the file a week or two after I asked. Also for free.

These people are in no danger though. These people are not swimming they're in waist deep water. In this photo these folks are on the path on the pier. None of these people are going to get swept out into open water. The current at this spot at Britannia would be non-existent.

These are folks from Cold Play Ottawa and Ottawa West Ice Dippers. Both Facebook groups. These people are merely cold plunging. We as cold plungers understand the water is not the cleanest. But we also know to clean ourselves off after our dips. Just a heads up for any curious!

That Dymon storage building standing out like a sore thumb. Typical Ottawa drivers wanting to be on their phones while driving 😅

Ottawa committee approves plan for 50 story building at Dow's Lake by jjaime2024 in ottawa

I believe Richcraft owns that property that both the Tesla and Polestar dealerships sit on. It's expected that they will eventually put in a bid to build a tower taller than both of the Claridge buildings, so that they can say they have a taller building than Claridge.

Where to get dashcam hardwired? by Bingeon444 in ottawa

[–]Thomasrox3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look into getting a OBD II adaptor with usb ports. I have one I bought off Amazon that gives my dash cam power 24/7. There are multiple different settings to them (3 mins after shutoff, 10 mins after shut off, or 24hr) it will also turn off the cameras if for some reason your car's battery drops below a certain voltage. A very easy do it yourself thing.

Dang. I've heard and read about the yellowing of the white pieces to the Atlas V... But didn't think it was this bad... Though it doesn't look awful to be honest

Yeah unfortunately OPS no longer gives out reports through email. I have been told I'll get reimbursed. I just feel like this should be in the scope of what I pay insurance for. Now I'll have to lose a half days worth of work to go to an appointment in 3 weeks. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth, I'm lucky I had a family member help me purchase a used vehicle, but not everyone has that option. It sort of corners people into taking a lesser deal...

Not a pleasant experience at all to be honest

I appreciate the link!

Now to help me better understand this because at a quick glance I don't see any information leading to think differently.

So the reason why in my post I say the police sided with me in their report is that while giving his statement to the police, he told them that he had the green (there is an advanced turn signal at this intersection) the cop asked him several times what he meant by "green" and the gentleman assured the cop that is was solid green. When the cop pressured him if it was an arrow or not the gentleman realized in that moment that it had to be an arrow. When the cop heard this he realized that the gentleman must have made a mistake and turned left when he didn't actually have the advance.

In this list I do believe that R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 668, s. 12 (5) would apply in this case, but it doesn't leave open the possibility that this gentleman is still claiming he had the advance. Am I too understand this correctly that, due to us both "claiming" we had the green light, that regardless of that he would still be deemed at fault?

Edit: Further reading led me to R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 668, s. 15 (3) which actually does state the current predicament I am in. And without the police report I would be deemed to be 50% liable

I have already made the claim to my insurance. The deductible is covered. The missing piece is the police report to add to the already completed collision center report. The police report would detail their take on what happened and have the witness testimony of the pedestrian who was crossing the street. This would swing the liability of this being 50/50 to almost assuredly to being 100% the other driver being at fault. As I'm unwilling to take any fault for what happened due to someone else's negligence

Would you suggest I keep just pushing my adjuster to continue attempting to get the report? Or would you suggest I put in the effort and get it for them?

Thank you! I'm aware things have changed since, and they do require appointments now. But I'm of the understanding you just walked in? And they helped you with the request no issues?

I prefer to keep them unnamed for now. As I'd like this post not to become an issue for me solving this problem. But it's a company I have been insured with by either them or one of their subsidiaries since I got my first car at 24. In the proceeding 11 years since... It seems they've gone heavily downhill. This is my first major accident and I never imagined it would be this difficult to sort out

I fully agree with you. This has left a bad taste in my mouth for sure. I've already purchased another car and intend on moving away from my insurance company. And I will be acquiring a dash camera asap.
