Great Site
Not sure i have anything of value to contribute, was just watching the news about a motorist charged with flashing his lights to warn oncoming drivers of a speed trap. Googled topic and your site came up. Very interesting read! Thanks for hosting.

Hi. I am a self employed dogwalker and dog trainer in Toronto. I am here to ask a few questions regarding application of charges in accidents. I was the victim of a severe rear end collision in late November 2013 and have recently received a subpoena to attend court as a witness and am looking for support/information on what this all means...I was very pleased to see this forum here!

Good day All, I've enjoyed dropping in and reading the various forums as a guest for a while now and on occasion have had questions or thoughts on the various subjects.

I look forward to continuing to spend time on OHTA. Cheers.

Hello friends: I'm not good with computers, it took me about one hour to register and to find the proper box to introduce myself. So, at last here I am. I am Kumar from Mississauga, I was/am a real estate agent, not active though still having my licence for last 30 years. I am a senior citizen and very happy to find such a forum. I am fighting a ticket HTA 7(1)(A) sticker issue, court date is on May 29th, 2019, having an excellent driving record. Would very much appreciate if someone can provide some website to draw a few precedents so at least I would have some fighting chance. Any and all help/advice would be highly appreciated. A big applause to whoever created such a forum. Thank you.

Need some advice on Court proceedings -very confused
I have recently gone to court for a speeding ticket issued by an OPP officer. As it stood, the officer forgot to sign the ticket. So at my trial, before I made a plea, I pointed this out to the justice of the peace and asked that the ticket be quashed. I was asked to produce my copy of the ticket, which I gave and the JOP then agreed with me and dismissed the case. Before he did so, the…

I will be representing my wife at her speeding trial next week. Mostly everything is pretty much run of the mill but since she wasn't speeding we will be having her take the stand.
