We have a steady police presence of 5 - 10 officers in the town at any given time.
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.
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…
Disobey Stop Sign + Fail to Surrender Insur: Worth Fighting?
My wife just got 2 tickets today.
1) Disobey stop sign
2) Failure to surrender insurance (she actually had an outdated one).
If my MAIN GOAL is to prevent insurance premium from increasing, should I be fighting this?
If so, what are my chances of winning and who is the best in helping with this? Also, approximately how much would this cost me to fight it? Thanks.
Re: Disobey Stop Sign + Fail to Surrender Insur: Worth Fight
In my opinion all tickets are worth fighting if you have the time. Note this is a minor conviction so it may be overlooked by your insurer, BUT if she gets into an accident or has another ticket all bets are off. You would have to call and see what your insurers specific policy would be.
Re: Disobey Stop Sign + Fail to Surrender Insur: Worth Fight
I would definitely book a court date. At the very least you can probably make a deal to have one of the tickets dropped in exchange for a guilty plea to the other. If your insurance company forgives one minor ticket, like many do, then that should keep your rates from going up.
