How to report a bad driver ecently I was driving my personal car on Eighth Line at 5 Sideroad, where I came to a complete stop at the four-way stop signs. I was watching a vehicle approaching their four-way stop sign as I inched into the intersection. I realized this person wasn't going to stop, or even slow down. As I stopped, again, in the middle of the intersection I wondered if I had covered everything in my will. My fellow motorist whizzed by their stop sign and turned onto Eighth Line. I didn't chase this motorist down because I knew a stern look or an unfriendly hand gesture would not make this motorist a better or more considerate driver. What I did do is get close enough to note their licence plate, make, model, and colour of vehicle. I had my passenger make notes on the driver's description, time and place this occurred and road conditions. At no time did I place myself or passengers in further danger to obtain this information. I then provided this information to my local police station on a Community Road Watch form. Community Road Watch is a program for our 911/ 411 Const. Chris Borak community to report aggressive or unsafe driving, where police information letters are sent to the registered owners of offending vehicles. Report forms are available from your local police station or at www.haltonroadwatch.ca. To the driver of that car: did you see my disappointed look? Your driving is a danger to our community. Contact me personally for crime prevention tips, or information regarding community concerns through 905-878-5511 extension 2470, or by e-mailing chris.borak@hrps.on.ca. Please reserve the 911 system for emergency calls only. --Const.

The old farmhouse, located within the Trafalgar Rd. Sports Park, was saved from demolition last year by the citizens' group, which plans to restore the building for community use. The current estimate to refurbish the building is $300,000. So far the group has raised $27,000 in donations and grants, and $45,000 in pledges from the Georgetown Soccer Club. That club will also rent the upper floor of the Devereaux House. Halton Hills Hydro and the Friends will also use the House to showcase energy efficiency and conservation. The Town will retain final approval of the layout, design and construction of the proposed upgrades. Council also agreed to donate the funds, which had been allocated to demolition of the building-- about $60,000-- to the Friends' fund-raising campaign. --By Cynthia Gamble, staff writer
