Careless Driving Ticket Advice

Careless Driving puppetfoam

Yesterday I was driving on a two lane road, with one lane used partly as parking. I was stuck in the parking lane, and I couldn't leave as there was busy traffic all on my left. The roads were slick and icy (-15C weather), and I was gaining on a parked car in front of me. I knew that I had to get…

95km/h in E0 km/h zone - Fatal error??

General Talk 238

I received a speeding ticket this past weekend, and although the officer was nice and gave my 6yo a coupon for a free slushy, I want to fight the ticket.

The officer wrote the offence as "95km/h in a posted E0 km/h zone" the "E" being what looks like a written backwards 3. Now I know and you can…

Question about time frames

Unread post by manwithaplan »

So I got my notice of my court date to today from the Red Light ticket I received on September 13th, 2010. It was issued the 19th of April. My court date is set for July 7th.

Is this a rather short period of time (the time from when I received the notice of trial date to the actual trial date)? How long would it take for them to process a request for disclosure? Would I even get my disclosure before my court date, considering it took them like 8 months to tell me when my court date was?

- Should add this is in Toronto, the courts at Markham and Sheppard.
