Hi, I got caught speeding near 401 and Brimley, it is a over a bridge so I was going downhill. The speed limit there posted "50" KM. I was caught after I came off the bridge over 401, the School Zone was behind that... The COP told me I was doing 68! And he wrote on a ticket "Speeding 68 over school zone". What bug me is he put a "R" on the ticket !! Which he didn't really reduce my speed. And the area he caught me isn't a school zone... the school zone was behind the cop.... way behind! He only charge me $42 and then after victim fee is $60. Here is the question, if I was in the school zone... isn't my fine double??? Why wasn't? Lucky I got a Dash Cam in my car... Please see the link below, it is a mp4 file.. As you can see, the max speed I have on the Cam is "65". And you can clearly see the "YELLOW" School Zone sign way behind the cop after he stop me at the end of the video. Anything that under 16KM over the speed limit is no demerit points. But if it is over 16 it is 3 Demerit Points. I plan to pick Option 2 meet with prosecutor. The last speeding ticket was 2007 May.... so I really don't care to have 1 ticket. But I really don't wanted any Demerit Points in my record. What chances do you guys think do I have to have it reduce where no Demerit Points is taken? Here is the mp4 video of my dash cam... It is in my Google Drive... https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4qYsmB ... sp=sharing Manay thanks...

Speeding... 68 over School Zone.. By my Dash Cam say 65...
Hi guys... I just came back from my Early Resolution Meeting... Long story short... they reduced my ticket from 68 over 50 zone to 60 over 50 zone. When I arrived, there are 20+ people waiting outside a cubicles in the hall. As soon as the lady came, everyone get up and line up outside the door. She had a Spreadsheet, when it got to my turn. She look over my name, and say she can reduce it from 68 over 50 to 60 over 50 and drop the points. I didn't even open my mouth or show her any video. Then I said, yes... She ask me wait outside of a little court room. 20 minutes later, a group of people including myself enter the court room. Each one was called up, they read out your name and saying you willing to a lesser charge. I get up; the Judge say you willing to take a lesser charge of speeding @ 60 over a 50 zone, is this correct? I say "YES", then he reply, the fine is $30, do you wanted to pay it today or later day. I said today... He gave me a white from and tell me go down to first floor to pay the fine. I went down-stair get a number... again waited there another 20 minutes. After surcharge and the fine, the ticket came to $45. I pay, and get out. Total process took about an hour.

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?
