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.

Just wondering what this incident means...........
My wife got caught not making a full stop - no contest.

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.

Probation/community service for speeding 50+ over
The original charge was speeding 60 over and stunt. Stunt will be tossed and a plea to 60 over, plus fine, 6 months probation and 30 hours community service.
Have you heard of this?
Thank you.
Re: Probation/community service for speeding 50+ over
Yes, it's a Provincial Offences Act Probation Order. It's not common but I've seen it used before. Though usually it was in order to place specific terms on someone, like "Not to occupy the driver's seat of a motor vehicle" or "Obey a curfew of...", where the crown felt those terms were necessary to keep the person from committing the same or similar offence again. I've never seen it used just to invoke the standard probation terms plus community service.
Just like a Criminal Code probation order there is a charge for Breach Probation under the Provincial Offences Act Section 75. Max fine is $1000 and 30 days in jail.
