Re: Failure to stop. 136(1)(b)

any opinions on my disclosure? been charged with failure to yield...although it appears the officer has notes on failure to stop (and failure to stop was what was discussed during the traffic stop).

Re: Failure to stop. 136(1)(b)

had trial today. received adjournment and finally got my disclose. officer is claiming i went through the stop. is the "failure to yield" charge, the correct charge? why wasn't "fail to stop" levied? can either charge be laid when going through a stop sign?

Re: Failure to stop. 136(1)(b)

On an older post, someone described the same scenario. They however claim that the original ticket, or certificate of offence, is the official document that lists the correct charge. If the Crown did want to change what you were charged with, they would have to withdraw the original one in Court, th...

Failure to stop. 136(1)(b)

Hello, got stopped today for rolling a stop sign. Ticket says failure to stop, but quotes hta 1361b. Doesn't 1361b mean failure to yield? Is this a fatal error? Or could it be amended at trial. How can I prepare a defence if I don't know if I'm defending the failure to stop or the failure to yield?
