Re: 2 tickets, one of them has a mistake...
You might want to look into your cities parking by-laws before you do anything with the tickets or while you are deciding whether to fight them. Most cities restrict parking on the street to a maximum of 12 hours regardless of any signs permitting parking. You may be lucky that the car wasn't towed away in some cases.

Re: 11B Victory, How To Remove Record From Drivers Abstract?
I'm not quite sure why they would use the term "police privilege', when in fact the police have nothing to do with adding or removing anything from a driving abstract. That's all done by the MTO. I'd start with calling them.

Re: I have a few questions.
You can always ask for leniency but it's entirely up to the JP. They are more likely to give you extra time to pay any fines that are judged against you. IMO the full-time student excuse won't be given much sympathy from the JP. The likely scenario will be that you are given 3 months to pay and at the end of that if you have been part paying the ...

Re: wrong information on the NOTICE OF TRIAL
Your notice of trial is not the official charging document and the incorrect information will not assist you in your defence.
As far as i'm aware, you are under no obligation to correct them.

Re: Ticket - Driving Using Handheld device
The JP doesn't have access to your Drivers Licence information except for what's actually on the ticket. If you didn't show up there would be no way for the JP to know the address is different.
Referring to the fact that you believe the officer to be "incompetent" based on a wrong address probably won't get you very far with the JP or the ...

Re: Ticket - Driving Using Handheld device
The fact that your address is wrong is not a fatal flaw on the ticket and it would not be quashed. How would the Justice of the Peace know that your address is wrong on the ticket anyway?
Things like leaving the date and time of the ticket off, the officer not signing the ticket, leaving off the set fine could be flaws.

Re: Failed to stop at a stop sign? (Maybe)
As for the placement of the stop sign, that's not actually where you are supposed to stop. Depending on the road design, you either stop at the marked stop line or, if none, then immediately before entering the nearest crosswalk or, if none, then immediately before entering the intersection.

Re: Will I get a ticket? - small wind deflectors
I'll give you my standard answer: "It depends"
1) Do you get caught?
2) Is it actually raining out?
2) Every Officer is an individual and can use their own discretion.
Look at it like rolling dice, sometimes you roll boxcars and sometimes snake eyes.
How you react during the vehicle stop may influence the outcome as well.

The correct response on a multi-lane highway is to pull over to the nearest edge of the roadway.

I agree with Simon. Our agency gives copies the testing procedure for the radar and if you want to see a manual you may with one of our court officers present.
