was pulled over for speeding the police did not tell me how fast I was going but when he came back with my ticket he said he dropped it to 89 in a 70. When I got home I noticed he put 2:25 pm on it and I would have been at work at that time Should have been 4:25p.m. Can I plea not guilty do to the time being wrong? And if so would I need to hire a paralegal for it?

Speeding ticket, wrong time of day put on.
Re: Speeding ticket, wrong time of day put on.
Wrong time will not get your ticket dismissed. It is basically irrelevent to the charge.
Re: Speeding ticket, wrong time of day put on.
+1. The crown will most likely be allowed to correct the time error and your trial will proceed.

Re: Speeding ticket, wrong time of day put on.
+1, if you bring this up before trial it will simply be corrected.
But, if you get the officer on the stand, you could use this in conjunction with other matter(s) to bring reasonable doubt and to the fact that the officer is only human and can make a mistake.
Thus, perhaps he made a mistake reading the speed on his radar the same way he made a mistake reading his watch/clock and you were not in fact traveling at said speed.

+1. I was once issued a ticket at 12:30 pm but the officer wrote the time down as 12:30 AM. It's pitch black at 12:30 AM. How can an officer make that mistake? Did he fill parts of the ticket out prior to the stop? Why? If he is prone to taking short cuts then maybe he short cutted the radar test procedure and probably the procedure for shooting the subject vehicle.

130 in 100 zone, 5 hours away
I got a speeding ticket on the 401 by Cornwall. The officer said I was going 140 initially then dropped it to 130 (for the record I don't believe for a second I was going 140, that's way faster than I would ever intentionally drive). I filled out the info on the back of the notice to request a…
Something feels fishy with my stunt driving charge
I was recently charged with stunt driving on a 60kmh road. When I was pulled over, the officer told me I was going almost 100kmh (still 40kmh above the limit) but was charging me for stunt driving because I accelerated quickly from an intersection on an empty road (in a straight line). I know…

Pursuit rating of non-domestic vehicles
Are any non-domestic vehicles "pursuit-rated" in North America? Also have the Michigan State Police (this is relevant because apparently they have the most accepted selection/testing process) tested any of them to see if they meet their criteria? Just curious...
Quebec also has "Street Racing" legislation
Ottawa, Canada (AHN) - Beginning Tuesday, or April Fool's Day 2008, fines on Quebec drivers caught overspeeding will be doubled. It is not only the money penalty that will go up, but also demerit points.
The new law, Bill 42, is similar to Ontario's street racing rule. It stipulates fines for…
Speeding - what should the set fine and total payable be?
Hi,
A friend got a ticket Jan. 9th of this year for doing 110 kph in a 90 kph zone, so 20 over.
What should the set fine and total payable read?
It's confusing to me, as the prescribed fine under HTA s.128 is different than the set fine enumerated by the Chief Justice of the Ontario Court of Justice.
Wh…
First speeding ticket, OPP officer claims 40km/h on 401.
An OPP officer ticketed me claiming I was going 40km/h over the limit (140km/km) on my way home with a few friends on the 401. This is my first ever speeding offense. Although I am sure I was over the limit, I am almost certain that I was not going 40 over, more realistically closer to 30 over. The…

Hi Guys,
Yesterday night I was charged for stunt driving (excess over 50km/h) and I have a few inquiries. I'm sure you've all heard the same story, but the unmarked cop in an SUV was tailing me for a good 2-3 minutes as I was travelling 120~135 km/h. Then as he came close I decided to boot it up…
