Are you stating that this happened ~12 months ago? And you just received disclosure this week? Perhaps an 11B filing fits?

What's a reason V8?

I think en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V8_engine

Not to hijack this thread, but I have a hypothetical question regarding witnesses.

A witness gives a statement at the scene of the incident, but the defendant doesn't agree with the "facts" detailed in the witness statement. At trial, if the witness does not show, can the prosecution simply rely on the statement given. Or, perhaps, is the trial ...

So, you admit you were speeding?

Myself and others I imagine would like to hear what happened, if you don't mind sharing.

Just got back from the courthouse from my early resolution meeting. Going in, my wife was pushing me to take a lesser charge and move on with it. I was adamant that I did nothing wrong, and didn't want to plea guilty to anything. So, this morning I sat in the waiting room. People were being called into 1 of the 2 offices to meet with the prosecutor ...

I received my disclosure last week. I have an early resolution meeting on Thursday. A few points of interest. In the officers notes, she makes notes of the damage to my car being on the front bumper. I had no damage to my front bumper. My REAR bumper is damaged with the impression of the licence plate from the car behind me. 4 1/2 months later I ...

I received my date for Early Resolution (May 9th) in the middle of February. I faxed in a request for disclosure a few days later (Feb 19th). I still have not heard anything. Been 5 weeks now. I'll send in another request at 6 weeks from last request.

Yes, you are 100% at fault.

If the damage is less that $1,000 you do not need to report it.

Avice: Slow down

If we can agree that in this scenario the sign is invalid, (thus falling back to 50 km/h), could you not argue that this was a fatal ticketing error as it is an "unknown offence", since "58 km/h in a 40 km/h zone" is not a valid offence for this location?

n00b questions.

1) Can I request a disclosure before submitting my response to the charge? Mainly, do I have to pick option 2 or 3 first?

2) If I request a first attendance meeting (option 2) does that mean I am pleading guilt of some sort? If I do not like the outcome of the meeting with the prosecutor, can I then request a trial date ...

Id start by requesting disclosure to see what evidence the officer has to support a careless driving charge. Based on what youve said, I certainly dont feel the charge is warranted nor would you be convicted. First attendance meeting might not hurt, see what the Crown says. If they feel the charge is unwarranted they might simply withdraw it ...

Yesterday evening I was stopped in line at a red light. About a dozen cars were in front of me. I had a safe distance between the car in front of me. I could see its tires on the pavement. I saw the light turn green, and a few seconds later the car in front of me released the brakes and rolled forward. I let off my brake and rolled forward. A ...
