Hey guys, i recently recived a ticket for speeding 146km in 100km on the 115 HWY heading towards peterborough... The officer had reduced the fine to 129km and sent me on my way.

I was pulling a 2wheel utility box trailer what is my best plan of action to save myself the points/insurance increase. my courtdate is scheduled for DEC4th 2008 if i fight and loose, will i be charged for the 146km in 100km? thanks alot could use all the advice and help J :shock:
Also bring in about 40 friends who are to testify on your behalf as "expert witnesses." Point them out to the Prosecutor when trying to plea-bargain, along with your mountain of evidence. Have them also bring in a stack of books. Failing that, pay another one to distract the officer with a Boston Cream. :wink: On another note... except for getting the disclosure package, not much else you could've done. Sounds like you did just about everything right, from acting reasonably well at the roadside (why else would the officer have dropped it to 129), and in court (down to 119). Hopefully there won't be another need to fight a ticket for a while. :D

Hi everyone, after 12 years of clean driving, I got my first ticket. I had stepped out to grab a bite and left my valid licence in my other pocket. I had an expired "valid photo ID" licence in my vehicle that I keep just in case I need photo ID. I gave the officer that one and I told him my valid…

I was stopped by Barrie OPP on my way back from a weekend up in Midland ON on June 28, 2017 and…
this is ALL I got in terms of notes. No record of calibration before or after.
my question is, should I send a second request for the officer's notes from the day? or can I run with this and press the point that he didn't test the unit before or after?
Friend of mine was stopped and asked to blow into alcohol test meter just because he said he had 2 drinks earlier in the night (like 4,5 hours before being stopped). He wasn't behaving erratic or driving out of line. The officer said he noted him to pull behind few parked cars and then…
