After passing a person in "authority" on a country road four months later, the OPP served a notice to appear for careless driving. Proving diligence and care should not be a problem. The only witness are two persons, each one I passed. No cars were approaching in the opposite direction....truthfully, I'm not sure what this power-trippers problem is. After I passed him, he aggressively chased me. I'm looking for recent cases to advocate that passing is not against the law! Thanks.
Thanks for all the support; when I came home, my wife immediately instructed me to document the entire day, which I did. So I have my own written statement here at home. My wife and I also made a compliant to the Military's chief for his conduct that day...they encouraged us to formalize a complaint against him to the commissionaire. We just wanted the money back which cost us to get the vehicle out of the pound. They had the tow truck waiting for me...as soon as they found me. When the chief aggressively pursued me, he was tail gating me. I found it bizarre that he was going below the post speed rate to this point of aggression.

Mail in you request for disclosure. Let us see what they have against you. As to filing a complaint... Not sure where you would send it too, but that is a definite "should do". Why don't you make a call to the OPP to charge the Fire Chief with "Follow too Close"? He had no qualms about ratting you in, even though his case had no merit.

I've requested disclosure. I'll post the results. As soon as I receive the name of the person chasing me, I will phone the opp and make the complaint. If they fail to do anything, I will attend the justice of the peace and get a formal charge that way.

The charge was dropped! After readying the disclosure - very apparent that the fire chief worked closely with the police to construct his statement....Crown must have also seen the numerous flaws.

I was at my parents' house in Mississauga early this week, and my mother told me about this SUV which always parks down the street for four to six hours a day, headlights on and the occupants inside. When she takes her afternoon walk, she will usually see a man and a woman inside smoking or…
Last week, around 9:30 at the Britannia water purification plant (Ottawa), undercover cops put on their lights. I was outside of my mom's vehicle (van) about to go for a simple #1 in the bushes (even had a bunch of tissues in my hands) when one officer asked me what I was doing (my bf was also…
We are living in the age of digital video. HD 720p and 1080p CRYSTAL CLEAR Video. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video is worth a million.
I had video evidence for a case but it was not accepted. I apparently did not submit it properly/ at the right time. Despite this I had my ticket…
According to current regulations, no electric car can be driven in Ontario (and anywhere else in Canada except BC). Do you find it somewhat ridiculous that, despite all the fanfare about the environmentally friendliness talk, and high gas prices moans, we cannot use the most…
Hey guys i just wanted to know what speeds you see others do on the roads on a regular basis. As we all know no body drives 100 km. It seems they only hit that speed twice once on the way up and once on the way down.
it seems the De Facto limit on the 401 is about 120-130. But lately i dont know if…
I might be moving from Manitoba to the Ottawa area.
My question is, I drive a 4x4 truck and my summer tires stick out beyond the fenders about 1.5-2inches. Is that illegal in Ontario? If so will installing fender flares take care of the problem? Also the truck has True dual exhaust (2 pipes from…
Okay so while at school today i parked on a residential street in Hamilton Ontario. the person in front of me did not pull up very far so i was forced to park fairly close to the driveway of the house i was in front of. I got out to make sure they had plenty of room to drive out if they wanted to,…
Just wondering if I can get some help on what to do for this ticket. I have a court date on August 17th. I simply cannot afford this. I haven't had an offence in years, and pay attention to my speeds now. One night when I was too focused on the road and not the speedometer, I get pulled…
I got pulled over for doing 147 in a posted 90 zone on hwy 17 heading east towards Ottawa where I live. My car was impounded for 7 days and the officer took my licence. I'll probably go with one of those traffic ticket places. I don't feel like driving to North Bay 4 or 5 times.
