I mean, this argument is more than a little unhelpful, because it doesn't specify to what degree these incidents are supposed to be underreported. This is veering into speculative fiction territory. If these incidents are not reported, how do you know that they are happening?

Also, "I won't bother reporting this incident because I know action won't be taken" is a level of jaded cynicism that I think is safe to say cannot be extrapolated to the population at large. I myself am manifestly a jaded cynic and such a thought would never occur to me.

In my personal experience this is the case, I’ve called the TTC about “know characters” and they pretty much said nothing would be done.

For car break ins etc generally the deductible is higher than paying out of pocket so that goes unreported, why put a claim on your carfax?

None of my female friends report creepy interactions or even assaults as they’ve gotten a hard time from police.

Toronto police are giving significantly less tickets than they have in the past, are you going to say drivers are better behaved pre Covid?

Who cares when we have pretty much daily cases of people breaking their bail reequipments for the 2nd 3rd 4th or 7th time?

Is this the same as every road in the city being dug up in six months?

Have you tried telling her these incidents are very rare /s (mostly because people don't bother reporting incidents if they know action won't be taken)

Telling a young woman that her negative experiences are rare so she should just move on.... well that's not going to get me a progressive father of the year mug.

Looks like it was making the rather rare south to east turn.

Yes lets burry our head in the sand, how many cases of someone skipping bail 4 or 5 times for violent crimes would constitute an issue in your mind?

Why are you so scared?

Trading a crummy photo for info:

Had to be 20 in the crew here, working hard to fix mistakes of the higher ups.

So it’s a case of one rail switching and the other not (left and right). I don’t know much about this but on traditional rail switches aren’t the left and right of the switch coupled by a joint with one controlling actuator? I guess not the case for these rails sunk in to the road surface, probably cheaper to stick two separately wired actuators down there (better yet, probably cheaper to upgrade the tech to save all this mess).

This is were the legal is a failure as there too many in the jail now. Lets go back to the old day and built a nice prison way up north in the shield with no access to the current technology other than going out door and walk around. We are too soft on crime and most think its only a slap on the hand for what they did.

The mechanism you are describing where the left and right points move is not used on the streetcar network. The surface network uses single-point switches, where only one point is used on the inside rail of the curve. The outside rail follows the path it is pulled into by the inside rail but there are no moving parts on that part of the track.

As we recently saw with the person who set a woman on fire at Kipling Station, they get let go back onto the streets without consequences.

They most certainly weren't released. Don't spread fear about things that didn't happen.

I wouldn't read too much into it.

It's probably nothing.
