I've stopped someone for 93 over and they had no prior driving convictions. The fine was $2,000 and a one year suspension. In truth, the Justice wanted to put the driver in jail for a short term had the prosecution and defence not come to an agreement.
I strongly recommend counsel or you may end up in jail.

Re: License Suspension + Insurance Questions
"So from what I understand from the above if that is correct once the fine is paid and license has been reinstated it comes off the record. But still wouldn't it show that the license had been suspended before at renewal time? It doesn't really specify if the whole incident comes off the record or just the outstanding fine."

Envirmant Canada reports will do you no good. You're supposed to adjust your driving to conditions.

Re: Speeding 70 km/h in a 50 km/h Zn.-Prince Edward Viad. Tr
"So would I not need to be charged under 128(1) for regular speeding, whereas it would be 128(8) for construction zone?"
No.
Those are the subsections listed in the HTA.
There is no subsection used on a Certificate of Offence for the charge of speeding. Just slight additions to the short form wording depending on whether the offence was in a ...

Re: Does officer need probable cause before they turn on rad
"Probable cause" is a term used in the USA. There is nothing in Canadian law that says the officer has to "witness the vehicle at a high rate of speed" prior to turning on the radar. However, as part of a tracking history, the operator should observe the target travelling above the posted speed limit and then activate the radar. The radar simply ...

Re: Speeding 70 km/h in a 50 km/h Zn.-Prince Edward Viad. Tr
So now the question becomes: Is stating the section simply as "128" considered a wrong section number or an omitted section number?
It's neither. It's the correct section number as it stands. There is no sub-section.

1) If it's an old thread, start a new one.
2) That is the section number for speeding. No subsection required. No fatal error.

Re: Suspended-car taken away-but Judge just threw out case.
You've failed to mention what you are suspended for? Because this is a new charge, it has no relation to the prior case and you'll have to fight this new one. In Ontario a vehicle may be impouded for the following
Under the Road Safety Act, 2009, three new seven-day vehicle impoundments are effective December 1, 2010. These are in addition to the ...

Re: Do radars need certified calibration
Modern units will also not function when they detect harmonics or a level of RFI that is too high. Moving radar equipped with a VIP will also eliminate shadowing and batching by comparing the vehicle speed and the low doppker that is received.

Re: Do radars need certified calibration
Radar requal in Ontario is every 36 months for an Operator. If 1990 is his original date, I'd question them about their most recent requal.

Re: Do radars need certified calibration
Radar and Lidar only need to be calibrated when originally shipped to the police agency and after repairs are done. There is no requirement for annual calibration. Tuning forks (which are not required for most radar) are also not required to have calibration. In fact by using a tuning fork with a radar you are actually doing more of a test on the ...

Re: What can I drive!?
The prohibition does cover private property. Read on in section 259(4). This is the actual charge section.
Operation while disqualified

Re: Have trial next week for Failure to Obey Stop Sign
It looks like your photo from 60m away was taken from a point right next to the curb and not where traffic would normally be driving. That would change the angle and allow the sign to be seen from a greater distance. For the second photo, the stop line is very clear and it's in no way obstructed by trees or the hedge.
