Re: section 137- clarifcation

This is the third thread you've started on the same incident and I believe the question on the filing if the bylaws was answered for you.

Re: Offense: Fail to drive in marked lane

Ther is no offence for passing on a solid line. They are guidelines on the road to suggest that you shouldn't pass. They usually are situated near curves or grades where it is illegal to pass. See section 148 and 149 of they HTA.

Re: 40 over reduced to 15

They can and will modify the charge back to the original speed if you choose to go to a trial. That doesn't preclude you from requesting a trial, getting disclosure and seeing what evidence there is. You can always just pay the fine anytime up to the start of the trial if you chose.

Re: 80Km/h in posted 60KM/h - Radar reading 91 - Disclosure

If you want to know the answers to all of those little questions, you'll have to take your chance at a trial and ask the officer on the stand, and also risk a conviction for 91 in a 60.
It appears that when they turned around, you were also paced by the police and that's how it was determined as "sustained"
The only way to know for sure is a trial ...

Re: 80Km/h in posted 60KM/h - Radar reading 91 - Disclosure

Couple things. First, delete the other thread that you started to avoid repetition and confusion in the posts.
The officers notes are just to refresh his/her memory of the incident. Every minute detail doesn't have to be in there. You will have an opportunity to cross examine the officer at trial and can ask them anything pertinent to the charge ...

Re: bylaw officer took my disabled permit for misuse

Sorry JohnnyPublic, a bylaw officer can seize and hold an accessible parking permit if they have reasonable grounds to believe that it has been used while in contravention of a bylaw.

Re: .05% BAC WARN RANGE

The downside of requesting a second test would be if that test resulted in a fail reading, you would then be subject to a Criminal charge.

Re: Fatal Error? Incorrect Allegation on ticket

Complete and regular on its face is determined by the JP looking at the original of the ticket. I have no doubt that the JP will convict since they don't have access to any of the copies. I'm sure you will be convicted if you do nothing. You will then have to apply to have the case re-opened. Only you can decide whether the time that you will spend ...

Re: Fatal Error? Incorrect Allegation on ticket

If you zoom in on the ticket it actually looks like the bottom of the loop in the 9 is there. The only way to be sure is to look at the original copy of the ticket which is what the JP will have.

Re: Cell Phone Ticket. Questions and do I have a defense?

Just make sure you read over the sections of the regulation pertaining to exemptions for commercial use of hand held devices to make sure you fit all of the points for the exemption.

Re: Is this sign on public/private property?

It appears you're cherry picking subsections of the HTA to try and justify a properly laid charge under section 182(2).
What section of the HTA is (9) from?
