Re: Need advice I'm from Moncton new Brunswick
Your answer may differ province to province.
1) You'll need to know the requirements for a school bus when receiving and discharging passengers. For example, in Ontario the driver would have to be stopped before activating the retractable stop sign.
2) In Ontario, you'd either be charged as the driver or the owner of the vehicle. If you weren't charged at the scene, the owner of the plates will be charged at a later date. This is a more desirable scenario since it doesn't carry points or insurance implications. This may not be the case in your province.
Re: Need advice I'm from Moncton new Brunswick
No I wasn't charged at the scene it was just a random truck who pulled up 5 mins later when I was pumping gas and took a a picture of my licence plate he probably doesn't even have evidence video ect that anything took place so with out any proof can a ticket still be issued because it basically be my word against his
Re: Need advice I'm from Moncton new Brunswick
A ticket could still theoretically be issued, but the truck driver would have to come to court and testify against you if you changed the ticket. Then it would come down to which person the Justice of the Peace hearing the case found more credible. In reality I think it is fairly unlikely that the police will bother to issue a ticket based on one person's complaint, unless they had more proof then just their word.
Re: Need advice I'm from Moncton new Brunswick
In some jurisdictions in Ontario, civilians can make complaints about driving offences to police. If the vehicle and plate information match, then some police departments will send a warning letter to the vehicle owner, which has no real legal consequences.
This may also be the case in your area.
Here's an example:

Was this ticket improperly written?
On the lower part of the ticket I got, there is a space where the officer had to fill in my vehicle identification. Next to the plate number, he entered 09 as the year, and then the make of the car. My car is no where close to an '09. Is this enough to get me off the hook?
