Yeah, metric rules in Canada, eh?
Every time I come up there I have problems with the Mounties when I mistake 70kph for 70mph. :) When I first bought my '03 Dodge Ram, I was running up a hill at 70, promptly got pulled over, explained that I couldn't remember the change from mph to kph. The mountie, not to be fooled by my effort to appear naive, pointed to the speedometer and the little ring of numbers showing the kph reading. Fortunately he bought the excuse that I had just bought the truck, and I was wearing my sunglasses, and the numbers didn't show up clearly to me.
