No right to appeal? That shouldn't be legal.

Unfortunately you fail to realize its called the UNITED STATES Constitution for a reason, it does NOT apply to Canada.

Yet Canada claims to be superior to the U.S. as far as civil liberties.

....we are..lol Just because there is 1 law that they are passing due to numerous accidents related to the same cause doesnt mean we are less. The reason they are saying that you have no right to appeal is so that people who are racing dont say "oh, i had to change lanes and move over quickly, but this guy beside me was being a dick and not letting me in." They are doing it so that no dumba$$es who are street racing can get away with it. Yea its strict, but i mean..in the last 2 or 3 months we have had 68 deaths due to accidents related to racing or highspeed driving. I mean im all for modifying your car and all, but i mean, if your stupid enough to street race, your car should be crushed.
