I got a ticket in september 2008 for failing to stop for a school bus on the Danforth. There was a lot of traffic and trucks and i just never saw the bus. I requested disclosure 2 months ago and it is not ready. I am going to court will go to court later this week to see if the officer shows up, if not I will ask for an adjournment. It has been almost a year already. This extra delay isn't my fault so I can start processing a Stay due to the delay in getting to trial? If it goes to trial, how much of an argumeent can be made my view of the bus being obstructed? The bus was on the other side of the road and I was on the extreme right lane of a 4 lane highway and there were SUV and trucks in between. Should I take a lesser charge if offered?

Fail to stop for a school bus is a serious offense. Definitely take lower charge if offered. However, your arguing point with the prosecutor is not getting that disclosure on time.

The charge was withdrawn! The officer showed up in street clothes (day off?) but the prosecutor said the officer had no evidence. Did the cop just show up to get overtime pay? Either way I'm so relieved. I was prepared to request a adjournment and start the stay process but now it's over.

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…
