Replying to: antoninb (Oct 06, 2009 12:08 pm) Thanks for the response. Where are you located? I am about to either sue them or send a note directly to their legal department. I think the problem is that the wrong department is analyzing this situation. Any reasonable company would realize that it would be so much easier to get someone out of the vehicle and make them content as well. They have spend so much time on this vehicle I bet it comes close to what the cost would have been to get me out of this car. Is there any chance you can give me more details? Although I'd say 4 seconds is a generous number. Like I said, I've already had one near-miss on the 401. Email address is johnpannozzo at the hot place dot com.

Replying to: johnruns (Oct 06, 2009 12:46 pm) My suggestion would be to hit them with publicity rather than legal action. The former attracts more attention IMHO. Noting that you mentioned Hiway 401, you're probably familiar with the Toronto Star. There are several avenues with the newspaper that you could work this through. There is a definite safety aspect to this that should not be ignored.
