Hello, Received a ticket for careless following a collision. On the ticket Y/O is indicated for collision involved, but is not indicated for witnesses. Is the driver who's car I hit, not a witness? The prosecutor's case will be difficult to prove, and impossible without her I would think. I do not yet have the disclosure from the prosecutor, so I do not know if she is identified there as a witness, but can't imagine she wouldn't be. Does it matter that the officer did not indicate that there was a witness? Thank you for the clarification.

You're correct. The other driver is considered a witness and would be required at trial. The box on the ticket was probably left blank in error, though it's not the type of error that would nullify the ticket. The prosecutor will most likely review the officer's notes and accident report prior to trial and see that the other driver is required for Court.

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?
Friend of mine was stopped and asked to blow into alcohol test meter just because he said he had 2 drinks earlier in the night (like 4,5 hours before being stopped). He wasn't behaving erratic or driving out of line. The officer said he noted him to pull behind few parked cars and then…
