We have a steady police presence of 5 - 10 officers in the town at any given time.
Long story short I exercised my right to not talk to the police (I watch them beat the *EDIT* outta my brother and a…
Just wondering what you guys think of those HOV lanes.
Sure these lanes are faster then usual but i think they present a ton of problems, now the first thing i want to clear up is often we say speed is dangerous. Okay i can believe that depending on the context and situation its used in. But i think…
I heard somewhere that flashing your lights (i.e. clicking your high beams on and off) to warm drivers in the opposite direction of a speed trap is a violation of the highway traffic act.
Is this true ?
I was watching motoring 200X and they spoke about this, and accorinding to them, it is NOT illegal…
Mid July 2012 I was hit at 6pm by a drunk driver. That's when my hubby decided to tell me that he didn't take care of the insurance as he was supposed to. So, I got charged with driving without insurance. Car is in my name.
Inuries were minor - all of us had aches/pains, hubby had seatbelt burn…

Just wondering what this incident means...........
My wife got caught not making a full stop - no contest.
However, also got a "ticket" for failure to surrender card - but she did but it was expired.
She found the good card after that mistake and gave it to the officer.
However she still got a "ticket"…
I got a speeding ticket doing 75 in a 50 zone. There where vehicles all around my vehicle doing about the same speed. The road was 2 lanes in one direction and 2 lanes in the other direction. There was a vehicle beside mine, another behind that vehicle and a vehicle behind me, all moving above the…
Hi all,
Unfortunately I got a "Disobey Sign" ticket tonight in this weather for turning left at a no left turn intersection (Greenwood turning left onto O'Connor) and my question is if it is possible to fight this ticket successfully due to a variety of reasons.
First of all, since visibility was…

Re: Got disclosure and trial date, please help
Your photo's weren't coming through so i've fixed them.
To answer your original question, an officer doesn't have to show you the reading on the side of the road. They will leave all the info in their notes and that's how it will be made available to you.
Your ticket was reduced from 31 over. Are you a fully licensed G driver or do you have a G1/G2?
The notes are well written. Probably some of the most detailed laser notes i've seen posted here on the board.
Good luck.
Re: Got disclosure and trial date, please help
So the officers notes appear complete and that means it will be near impossible to beat if you take it to trial.
The officer reduced it to 15 over which is 0 demerit (although this can still cause your insurance to increase as insurance does not care about demerits).
If you go to trial and LOSE, then they raise it back up to the original 131 in a 100 (31 over and 4 demerit points).
Do you have the money to hire a paralegal AND an expert witness to testify against the officer? If not, then you will most likely lose. So probably just better to pay it and move on.
Re: Got disclosure and trial date, please help
I got my full G licence.
Thank you for fixing my photo.
How is paralegal is going to help me? I guess I should pay and move on.
Once again, Thank you all.
Re: Got disclosure and trial date, please help
My advice is to pay and move on. You can't win the trial if the officer shows up. At Napanee they always do. You got the best deal possible. If you want to delay the date when the offence will be posted on your driving record, don't show up for early resolution meeting, trial date will be set automatically, usually 2-3 months later. You can pay 2 weeks before the date and let them know that you did. You can use e-mail, they are very friendly, always reply.
