No I was living in Alberta at the time. I don't think they could fine you if you were out of province for some reason.

Seems to me that when I would see one of those speed things that tell you your speed, most guys would see how fast they could go!

There is a joint effort between BC & Alberta. If you receive a fine in Alta or BC, and then go home, the ticket will follow you to your home.

I lived in Grande Prairie a few years back, I got a speeding ticket in GP, and left shortly afterwards. When I went to renew my BC DL, I got dinged for the Alta ticket.

Do they actually have speed limits in Sask.... Everytime I have been thru there, I never really took my foot off the accelerator, if anything I pushed it closer to the floor.

Also is there police in Sask, never seen one fo them either..

Driven across Canada 4 times, took the train twice and flew once Van to TO.

Hey, is this ZIP driving

Sask is so flat it doesn't matter if you run off the road. There is another one on the other side of the field.

I was kind of suprised when we moved back to BC that I didn't have anything. I was a little worried.

Saskcatchawon, isn't that; that province you can watch your wife run away for 3 days, and shoot her at the horizon
