And Amber lights are generally set for a minimum of four seconds which leaves plenty of time to stop in even poor conditions.

Re: Is this legal?

I just love how you pick and choose what you want from a single section of the Police Services Act to further your own point. Speed checks are not illegal and are most certainly not misconduct.
Try posting the entire section next time.

(a) preserving the peace;
(b) preventing crimes and other ...

Re: Is it illegal to turn into the further lane?

All of those scenarios are illegal.
Check section 141 of the Highway a Traffic Act

The Ontario drivers handbook is also available online with pictures.

Re: Anybody have copies of most recent Genesis II manuals?

An FOI request with the Ministry wom't get you anything. They don't have control or posession over the manual.
I also agree with trenchknfe. Any decisioon mad by a justice of thr peace isn't binding on any court.

+1 to highwaystar's answer.
You won't get the calibration documents from the prosecutor.

Did the officer look like an insurance agent?
Think for yourself first and foremost. You might want to contact your insurance company and ask some very general questions about how they increase rates based in tickets.

Re: FORM 4F question (4A? 4B?)

In a vast majority of the cases, the remedy for lack of disclosure is an adjournment. If you believe that the prosecution is not providing you with something that you feel is necessary for your defence, then you should be prepared at your next court appearance to argue that fact in front of the JP and then they will make a decision.

Re: [URGENT/SERIOUS] Goin 185 KM/H on Highway (100 Limit)

This is one that they will gladly take to trial with no deal, regardless of your record. The prosecutor really has nothing to lose.
Try some if the usual paralegals to start.
Request disclosure as soon as possible.

Re: Anybody have copies of most recent Genesis II manuals?

It appears that the JP has made a decision about your disclosure.
See if the prosecutor will permit a viewing of the manual and be prepared to take notes. They won't permit any photocopying.
As far as I'm aware, there are no copies of this particular manual available at any library or even online.

I've seen lots of abstracts and the unpaid fine suspensions are on there even after they expire, listing the expiration date.

Re: Anybody have copies of most recent Genesis II manuals?

Don't go to the detachments. Go through the prosecutor to view the manuals.
Our jurisdiction does it all the time.
What's in the manual that you think will help you?
