I approached the intersection making a right turn, stopped and there was no on coming traffic. I proceed and fully turned and driving straight, truck flies ahead of me and clips the front of car. We pull over and then just decide to drive to cop shop. The cop was very grumpy with me because I didn't know which way I was heading, ie south north east and west. She takes us both in the office and tells me it's shift change. Takes report and asks another officer to take the kids statement. She writes everything I say down on back of report. Goes in back office talks with the other cop. We over hear that the young man that hit me is going to school to be a cop. They then give him a copy of the report and that is all. I was given a card with the report number and her name and a ticket. The ticket says there were witnesses and there was no signature from the cop on the ticket. Should I have gotten a copy of the report? And isn't there supposed to be a signature on the ticket?
Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
Anyone with advice?
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to say happened here. You were driving straight, after completing the turn, and then what?
You may want to call someone to get information, ie 1-888-XCOPPER. Talking over the phone will clarify some of these issues.
There doesn't need to be a signature on the actual ticket as long as there is a signature on the officer's certificate of offence. As for a copy of the report, it is common for officers to need 7-10 days to process a report to give you. If you do not hear from the officer within that time, you can always get a copy of it through disclosure when you fight your ticket.
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
I was driving on the road going about 15kms when a truck going about 50 passes me and hits the front of my car. So if the cop checked off that there were witnesses shouldn't I have known about it? I am not aware of any witnesses other than my kids and their statements weren't taken, mine was taken but I didn't even get to read over it nor did I sign it.
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
Was the ticket an electronic ticket or hand written? Electronic tickets don't need a signature, whereas I believe hand written ones do.
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
it is a written copy of ticket...so now I have to wait til I get my court date for disclosure?
Re: Fail to yield on through highway, no signature by cop
Hello,
I requested disclosure before receiving a trial date from the Caledon East Court, and received it, no problem. At the time was waiting for an Early Resolution meeting date, so had not even requested a trial and was able to get disclosure.

149km/h on 401 WB Disclosure Notes
I followed the procedures mentioned in the previous threads regarding the disclosure and received it today. My court date is November 5 2009 in Whitby. After going through the notes I realized 2 things:
1- the notes are horribly illegible and difficult to read
2- I have notes from two different officers.
Now I am not sure if this means that both the officers will be at court for the hearing or…

Fatal error: Speeding 75km/hr in posted 60km/hr zone.
Hi everyone,
Need an expert advice here. 10 days ago I got a speeding ticket. Ticket has a fatal error on its face-offense not known to law. It says speeding 75km/hr in posted 60km/hr zone. What is the best way to proceed?
1. Should I completely ignore this ticket and let the JP to quash it?
2. Should I go with option 3 - request a trial and force the fatal error by not showing up at court?

123km/h in a 70km/h
Just got this last night on my way to guelph.

I will go back and look again but I thought I was in an 80 not a 70 and I am positive I wasn't doing more than 120. My speedo read 110-115. I have aftermarket tires and rims so I assume this would be the difference.
It was around 7pm, already dark, nobody on the road but myself,…

The officer has incorrectly misspelled my first and last name. Also my address is wrong, I haven't lived at…
misspelled offence for failing to stop at a stop sign
Hello,
I was pulled over two nights ago and charged with failing to stop a stop sign. On the ticket, it says 'disobey stop sign - foil to stop' and does not say 'fail' -- something I think may be a fatal flaw? I have been driving for 12 years with no tickets, yet I live in Brampton where insurance prices are high so I do not want to be convicted as my insurance rates will spike significantly and…

It is hopeless to fight a ticket at Ontario Traffic court
Hi Guys! I've just had my trial day yesterday. I was not at fault but was convicted anyways.
It is such a travesty! There is no justice at the traffic court. It is just a no mercy machine to part someone with his money, no common sense applies and no reasonable argument being considered. Such a shame! The justice, the policeman and the prosecutor ganged up against me. The justice kept interrupting…

The officer pulled me over, and while he was polite, clearly his motivation was to…
