I received a ticket under HTA Sec 182 (2) for disobeying a sign. I wasn't familiar with the area and when I got to the intersection, there was a huge line up, but this Honda Civic stoped to let me into the southbound lane (northbound was closed due to contruction, southbound lane was open to both, my intention was to go north but I got very confused) Everything happened very quick, as soon as I turned southbound, I realize the sign but was too late, the Honda Civic pulls beside me (I was riding my motorcycle) and the driver, shows me is badge and asks me to pull into de next McDonalds parking lot. It was a plain clothes officer in an unmarked car. I sent my ticket to court to request a trial, I feel that I was trapped but I know I can't do anything about it as I have no witnesses, but there is one thing I realize: the ticket says that I desobeyd the sign going southbound on Keele Street but doesn't mention the intersection. does it suppose to mention the Street where I came from? The sign says no left turning from this street into Keele Street. Does any one know anything about this? Thanks

Beleafer81, probably it was is personal car and he was going home or to work or maybe it was his day off, honestly I didn't see anything there to show the car belongs to the police force.

Interesting story but I have to tell you there is no "entrapment" if this even exist in traffic cases. In your situation you may still have several arguments to advance. You should obtain disclosure and review it. This particular allegation carries 2 demerit points.

There was entrapment, but I have no way to prove it, reason why I dont want to go that way. All I would like to know is if the ticket should say the intersection where it took place, because my ticket says disobey sign southbound on Keele Street but the reason why I got the ticket was because I turned into Keele St. from a side street. I have trial next week but honestly I don't know what to do.

Hi everyone. I'm asking for a friend who has a question of interpretation.
He was ticketed for using a hand-held device. He contends that he was acting within the exemption provided under Subsection 14 (1) of O. Reg. 366/09, which reads as follows (emphasis added):
Hey guys i just wanted to know what speeds you see others do on the roads on a regular basis. As we all know no body drives 100 km. It seems they only hit that speed twice once on the way up and once on the way down.
it seems the De Facto limit on the 401 is about 120-130. But lately i dont know if…
On June 10, 2017, I was pulled over by an OPP on the 403 heading WB and told I registered 136km/hr. I kept chit chat to a minimum and took my ticket and went on with my day. I later requested my disclosure and did not receive it until a week before my Oct. 27 court date, and so I had my date…
Anyone know any more information? Apparently kathleen wynne mentioned trying to introduce legislation after more than 20 years of no speed cameras. My guess is that it wont happen, since they've tried before many times to bring it back after it was abolished.
The other day I was given a ticket for speeding 119 in a 90, on highway 17 near Marathon, ON (Speeding ticket capital of the universe, BTW). The officer claims to have "clocked" me using the vehicle mounted radar at 121 KMH and dropped it (presumably to lower fine and demerits).
I posted this in the 3 Demerit Section and haven't received any
responses.
I received a failure to stop at an amber light ticket on April 17, 2009. At my First Attendance Meeting I asked to read the police officer's notes and remember thinking how ridiculous they were and the difficulty…
I was on the right side of the road going straight when a pedestrian waved down the taxi driver in the lane next to me. He pulled over to the right without any notice or signalling and hit me with the side of his car.
There were many witnesses but I immediately had a concussion and did not think of…
My mother was driving EB on a 4 lane street (2 lanes EB, 2 lanes WB).
She was in the left hand lane and started a left hand turn so as to enter a side street, crossing WB traffic. There was NO intersection. She hit a cyclist who was heading WB. Police where called but none showed up. My…
If the speed limit is 50, and you do 100+, not only do you get 6 points. Your car gets impounded for a week, and your license suspended for 7 days, along with a hefty fine of at least $2000. The penalty is actually the same as for racing. The law came in effect on October 1, 2007. Remember -…
I was driving westbound on Hwy. 8 earlier this month in North Dumfries Township, approaching the Cambridge city limits. The weather was clear and the roads were dry. I noticed a vehicle on the shoulder on my side of the road, pointing towards me. This didn't concern me right away, as it is a rural…
