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…

Inuries were minor - all of us had aches/pains, hubby had seatbelt burn…

Just wondering what this incident means...........
My wife got caught not making a full stop - no contest.
However, also got a "ticket" for failure to surrender card - but she did but it was expired.

However she still got a "ticket"…

Hi all,
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.
First of all, since visibility was…
Another ticket for fail to stop at red :(
hi,guys. im in the same boat as u guys probably right now. i entered an amber intersection and it turn red when i was in the mid of the intersection(going straight). a fail to stop at red light ticket was received. i had this in london btw.
i'd like to know three things, please.
1. is there any extra charge if i decide to fight the charge at the trial?
2. if im convicted, does this conviction stay forever on my drivers abstract?
3. what are the usual ways to delay/reschedule a trial?
thanks
Re: Another ticket for fail to stop at red :(
1-$5 court costs....
2-No, 3 years
3-Go to court, ask for an adjournment...have a reason...on first appearance, tell them you are having difficulty getting representation etc...
Re: Another ticket for fail to stop at red :(
thanks,buddy.
how about getting sick for a doctor's notes; asking for a translator (english not being my first language fortunately)?
however, i dont see a first apperance option on the back of my LONDON issued ticket.

guys,pls help
Re: Another ticket for fail to stop at red :(
I am not sure why you are thinking about the ways to change the court date or bring doctors note, etc.....
Based on the scenario you have provided you have a solid defence to the charge and should go to trial. Obtain disclosure, prepare for trial with representative or by yourself and go for it.
