Re: Unique Defense

Aluminum hats pose a mental health risk and I have wondered loudly on here if CC sleeps with her's on, and while researching this stuff today, I've read references to "tin hats" on more than one occasion. The argument simply has not been thought through, but it entices many (hey even I was interested because if I could submit a successful legal ...

Re: Unique Defense

Coolchick,

Now I understand where your ideas on the "Corporation of Canada" come from.

This IS cult propaganda.

Re: serious defence for serial ticketers.

I know exactly where that is, Firestart. It runs from what they call the Six-Points Plaza and runs to the Mississauga border (and continues into Mississauga under the 427 collector lanes bridge holding the lanes to the exits of Browns' Line and Queensway). Another landmark is Cloverdale Mall.

Re: When officers break the law...

I find that the older (more experienced) the officer is, the more professional they become. Experience teaches and humbles. Especially in that profession.

I work in a building that also holds a for-profit "college" offering law and security (police foundations) programs, and I pray to every deity ever imagined into existence that the majority of ...

Re: requested disclosure 6 weeks ago, not received, court tomm..

Something similar happened to me, but what could happen with you is prior to the case being called, the prosecutor will want to speak with you to discuss how you're going to plead, etc., and then you will tell them you did not receive disclosure. They will do their darndest to get it to you prior to your case being called in order to not have an ...

Re: THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a nightmare. :shock:

Do you still have all of the paperwork for your trial including the payment you did make in September '09? I don't know what to do, honestly, except bring it to the requisite enforcement agencies and show them the paperwork at the weight stations (I don't even know if they'd know what to look at or if they would not care ...

Re: Can the HTA be enforced in a mall parking lot

Vehicles are always at fault according to the Fault Determination Rules when a pedestrian is hit, whether or not the pedestrian was at fault. I wish there was something Joe/Jane Public could do to fight the insurance companies at this because it is utterly wrong. The HTA charge should correspond to the FSCO determination, especially in cases like ...

Re: Can the HTA be enforced in a mall parking lot

Plus insurance blame is different than HTA blame. You can be sure that if you are not stopping at a stop sign and cause a collision you may not get a ticket. But the report will reflect that you are clearly at fault. In my experience you will be blamed fully for the collisions.( this is from a personal collision I had in PVt property. Other guy ...

Re: Senior Driver's Conditional Licence?

Well, it's optional, so that's why I think it's not contrary to the Human Rights Code, but I don't see what the incentive is...? Did I miss that part?

Re: Pedestrian deaths spike in GTA

Yesterday, I was coming to an amber light at a very busy intersection (not in GTA, yet the attitude is the same with many pedestrians throughout, as this post will demonstrate). Cars were still zipping through the intersection to my right (I was on a one-way on the left-most lane) as it had just turned amber. I slowed down. As I slowed, two ...

Re: "Bilingual Defence" - Where it can be used

Please also note that the french sign requirement for the City of Hamilton exists only for the City of Hamilton as it existed prior to January 1, 2001 . The City of Hamilton amalgamated with Waterdown, Flamborough, Ancaster and Dundas on January 1, 2001, so the french sign requirement does not apply to these areas since, prior to January 1, 2001 ...

Re: Pedestrian deaths spike in GTA

I just read that thread. :shock: It sounds like they had the same entitlement attitude. This woman was completely oblivious to the fact that her being on the sidewalk riding alone was enough to charge her, nevermind the fact that she nearly killed that other woman. Everyone just left the cyclist there to fix herself up because of her hostility and ...

Re: Pedestrian deaths spike in GTA

I've stopped at a collision scene where a moron made a right turn on a red light without slowing or stopping, and nailed a pedestrian who was legally crossing the street, breaking her leg. The first words out of his mouth: "WTF is your problem, lady? Look what you did to my car!" :shock:

On Dundas Street, between Bay and Yonge on the North side ...

Re: Using Centre Lane Improperly

I went to court on Thursday and ended up asking for an adjournment because the crown gave me disclosure (about 3 lines of the officer's notes :roll: ) 30 seconds prior to calling my name.

The officer's note mentioned that he saw me drive in the centre lane for about 200-300 meters. IMPOSSIBLE. Look, I'm no police basher like we often get here ...

I'm still having problems with getting on. It won't let me access the site because it's personal data storage and backup. I'll email you because it would be great to put this powerpoint presentation up for others. Thanks for offering.
