Last August was travelling on the 401 by Chatham with two other vehicles going a similar speed. Cop was waiting under an overpass and I got the short straw. Ticket is for 131 in a 100 zone. Missed the first court date as I never received a trial date notice (this is actually true), had it reopened, and it's being held on Tuesday. Received disclosure and it reads as follows: Observer P.C. XXXX (editted by Mod) B12996 -M/C driver black jacket in lane #1 trav. W.B. -lane 2 verbal confirm/visual confirm -Susp. M/V followed stop initialed on 401 WB -Confirm correct M/V stopped My name Date of birth License Plate *Descrip: 2006 Yamaha MCy Bue Charges: Speeding 131km in a posted 100km/h zone *P.O.N. Offence Number How can I go about disputing this? Does the observer (I'm guessing she's a rookie) have to be there, or only the ticketing officer? Appreciate any help

For those interested, the charge was withdrawn. After looking closer at the ticket I realized that I was timed by a plane, but only received disclosure from the ticketing officer. Met with the prosecutor pre-trial and explained that I had an issue with only getting half of the disclosure. Told me to grab a seat. Came back and said that he was going to withdraw the charge due to lack of evidence.
