Hello, I was charged in residential street in Brampton last week for HTA 136-1(a) violation. Actually, the street is just across from my home. I indeed stopped at stop sign and then moved on but the cop said I wasn't. The cop said that someone in the neighbourhood had complained about people not stopping at stop sign and he had to give tickets. He was talking nicely but still ended up charging me. I'm choosing a trail however ticketcombat site says it's an uphill battle to beat this charge as it's your words against cop's and they are always right. Please share your experiences. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I had a court date today and the interpreter did not come even though I had requested it in the form. There was an argument between the JP and the prosecutor about whose burden is that to ensure that the interpreter is there when the defendant specifically requests for one. The prosecutor argued that the burden is not on prosecution and it's up to city of Brampton to provide an interpreter. The JP disagreed so the prosecutor asked him to provide her a case law. The judge took a recess just for this and when he came back he said he couldn't find the case law in the short recess therefore he would adjourn the matter. Could I have asked to quash the charge at that time? I didn't realize it at that time. I'm also thinking to file a stay request as it'll be total 14 months when I have the next court date. No interpreter has been provided to my two first appearances as well so there are total three occurrences where I have not been provided an interpreter even though the request was made. Is it a good case for violation of section 14 of Canadian charter to stay the proceeding? Any comments are greatly appreciated.

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…
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…

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...
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…
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.
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…
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…
I had a speeding ticket in May 2013 which brought me to 9 demerit points out of 15. I received a letter and had to attend an interview. Due to a history of speeding tickets and a previous interview a few years prior, the interviewer decided to put me on zero tolerance for a year. Meaning if I…
