Re: Court Doesn't agree to disclose the LIDAR electronic output or any calibration report
Lidar and Radar devices only need to be tested according to the manufacturers instructions, which is generally before and after the offence. This usually means at the start of shift and at the end. At this time there is nothing before the court because no one has presented evidence or testified. Courts in the past accept this method of testing. A stunt conviction will likely mean that your insurance will either get cancelled mor will increase quite a bit. You should have likely contacted a lawyer or para legal to represent you for this charge. You definitely don't want a stunt conviction on yo...

Re: Court Doesn't agree to disclose the LIDAR electronic output or any calibration report
This is normal in Ontario. You are entitled to the full manual. The main concern will be, did the officer test the device according to the manufacturers instructions, and was the device working properly at that time. The problem that occurred in the past with the question of "calibration records" is that it opened up a huge rabbit hole of what device was used to calibrate the LIDAR, what device was used to calibrate the calibration device, and on and on.
Also, annual calibration is not required in Ontario. Only if the device, (RADAR or LIDAR has gone in for any major repair.

Parking tickets are issued under Part II of the Provincial Offences Act and convictions are registered against the owner of the vehicle, not the person driving it, even if that is the same person. You need to look into this. Posting a copy of the suspension letter from the MTO with all personal information redacted would help.

Drivers licences aren’t suspended for unpaid parking tickets. They are suspended for unpaid provincial offences tickets. For unpaid parking tickets, you can’t renew the vehicle validation until they are paid.

Re: Using a blue and red strobe light and a siren on multilane highways
I'm just curious as to what law those in the left lane are violating and where in the HTA does it state "LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING ONLY!!!!."

Re: License plate Sticker / exceptions due to covid
As long as it expired on or after March 1st you’re covered by the extension. I have seen no release from the province as to when the extension will cease. It’s also unknown what the province will do when it gets close to a year of the extension.. will they forgive everyone for the whole year? Charge everyone for the cost of the past year plus the coming year? Who knows.
There’s nothing stopping you from renewing it right now.

Re: Failing to show pink insurance card
Definitely not a fatal error as long as the substance of the offence is correct. “ Fail to have insurance card or Fail to surrender insurance card”

Re: How to respond to 2 traffic tickets: Disobey sign (182(2)) & Interfere with traffic (170(12))
Because these ticks s arise out of the same circumstances, it would be best to deal with them together. ie a not guilty plea to both, and perhaps the prosecutor will accept a guilty plea to one and withdraw the other.

Re: Ontario U-Turns, Right of way and the accident
You may want to read section 136 of the HTA. The requirement is to stop. Then, “shall yield the right of way to traffic in the intersection or approaching the intersection on another highway so closely that to proceed would constitute an immediate hazard and, having so yielded the right of way, may proceed.”
(2) Every driver or streetcar operator approaching, on another highway, an intersection referred to in sub section 1, shall yield the right of way to every driver or operator has complied with the requirements of sub section 1.
Driver A didn’t do this.

Re: Ontario U-Turns, Right of way and the accident
As long as the driver of vehicle B complied with the requirements of the stop sign, I would totally agree with the above and may not even lay any charge.

It might be easier if you uploaded a simple diagram and indicate where the stop signs are and the vehicle direction.

Re: Ontario U-Turns, Right of way and the accident
There’s not enough information here. What traffic controls are there at the intersection? What the layout of the intersection? What colour are the traffic lights if there are any?
