Hello all
(simon or anyone else can feel free to answer)
I requested disclosure of a radar manual in original disclosure request. Didn't get disclosure until trial date, so an adjournment was granted. At that time the Provincial Prosecutor stated that it wasn't his policy to release the manual to…

Hey folks. New forumer here.
Just curious to hear a few opinions on the following video taken at a photo enforced intersection.
As you can see, the light was still yellow for a fraction of a second as the camera-car entered the intersection (crossed the stop line), but it was close.
I drive a Honda Civic and we all know how those are when it comes to theft. On my driveway my brothers car was stolen twice and once broken in to. Also a few other cars have been stolen on my street. I have an alarm and all that. But say my alarm was going off and I ran outside and fought off the…

Who's on this forum, anyways...?
So, what kind of members are there on this forum?
Are most of you involved somehow in administering the Highway Traffic Act -- i.e., police officers, lawyers, paralegals, traffic ticket service providers? Or are most of you just regular citizens/drivers like me?
I'm just trying to gauge what level of expertise we have here.
Re: Who's on this forum, anyways...?
I'm just a regular,"nobody-special" forum member, but I have driven well over 4,000,000 kilometers in the past 24 years, with no at-fault accidents and no convictions for over 25 years. I follow this website to educate myself on the HTA so I can continue to avoid charges and more importantly ..... collisions and unpleasant events. Knowledge is essential for survival !!
Re: Who's on this forum, anyways...?
There are a few police and at least one lawyer in training. Used to be a few paralegals as well but not sure how frequently they post here now. Also lots of people who are just very familiar with the system. 
I wouldn't take any one poster's word as gospel. Read a few posts, get a feel for the posters level of knowledge and how consistent their info is with other posts.
Re: Who's on this forum, anyways...?
Just some guy<< yup, that's me.
There are a few officers here, hwybear is a regular and moderator......... that being said, there are limits to what he and any other officer can post.
Re: Who's on this forum, anyways...?
I find there are very smart and helpful people on board here! From Police Officers, Paralegals, Lawyers, HTA Enthusiasts, and everyday Citizens who are very helpful, informative, and want to share their experiences.
