Hi all. I haven't posted in a while, but I had a question. A couple of weeks ago, I was pulled over for speeding. The officer said he had clocked me at 75 in a 50. I was actually going faster. Yes, I know I was speeding; I momentarily lost my focus and hit the pedal a little too hard. In the end, the officer let me off with a warning. I have two theories: (1) he was in a good mood because I didn't give him any attitude, didn't talk back, etc.; or (2) he knew he'd never make a "maintained continuous eye contact" claim stick because I rounded a corner at least 100 metres ahead of him and there's no way he'd have been able to see me. I wasn't trying to evade him; I was simply ahead of him by the time he'd pulled onto the road and started pursuing me. Here's my question. Because he gave me a formal warning on the same form as a ticket, is that warning "in the system"? If another officer stops me within a certain period of time, will that other officer know that another one has already given me a warning, potentially reducing the likelihood I'd get a roadside reduction or whatever? No, I don't get pulled over often, but anything can happen when one commutes every day.

Hi everyone, after 12 years of clean driving, I got my first ticket. I had stepped out to grab a bite and left my valid licence in my other pocket. I had an expired "valid photo ID" licence in my vehicle that I keep just in case I need photo ID. I gave the officer that one and I told him my valid…

this is ALL I got in terms of notes. No record of calibration before or after.
my question is, should I send a second request for the officer's notes from the day? or can I run with this and press the point that he didn't test the unit before or after?
