In addition to the typical speeding violations and unsafe
loads, police also found many people exhibiting what Woolley called
"some pretty bizarre behaviour."
One driver was ticketed July 1 after flipping an officer a rude
gesture.
An officer passing in an unmarked car gestured a warning to the driver
that he should be wearing his seat-belt. The man replied with a
one-fingered salute.
But his violations went beyond rudeness and the lack of a seat-belt,
Woolley said. The driver didn�t have insurance and was found to be banned
from driving.
The unidentified man said he didn�t realize the man in the unmarked car
was a police officer.
Another man, this one already under a lifetime driving ban for dangerous
driving, added another dubious entry to his record at the start of the
patrol June 28.
Police said the unidentified 65-year-old from Stroud, Ont., tried to run
down a police officer and rammed into another car before crashing into
the median.
The man faces a series of charges, including one for impaired
driving.
