Re: careless driving charge - need advice
It may be upsetting, but from an impartial perspective, I'd say you really don't have much to worry about. That said, due to the serious nature of the charge, I'd still suggest a paralegal or traffic lawyer - shop around and see who is offers the best service and expertise. If you want, there's a form at the bottom of this page to fill out for a ...

Re: Can the HTA be enforced in a mall parking lot
1) I have some business in some area malls after hours. Once I have pulled into the mall lot on the way to the closest door I rarely stop at stop signs unless there is a car or person nearby. (i do not carelessly speed, i do show caution, just do not fully stop) Can a police officer charge me with an offence under the HTA? Worse case senario If a ...

Re: Charged w/ 135 in a 100 zone when i was only doing 115
Notes are a good thing to start with. Write them down now while it is still fresh in your head.....Describe weather, road and traffic conditions. Physical characteristics of the road, dips, bumps, hills..etc..... Go back if you can, it may help.....then wait for disclosure.......that time will depend on where this took place.....

Re: changing lanes after a right turn
If you are talking about multi-lane roads then just follow the painted lines. If the line are solid, you are not allowed to change lanes, if they are dashed then feel free to move about the roadway.

If driving on snow means I'm careless then we had better stop driving in the winter.

Re: Request for Disclosure - Enough Time?
I cannot speak for any paralegal, nor do I want to speculate or comment on their actions. That would be inappropriate. If you have concerns with them, the best thing for you to do is talk to them directly. They'd be able to tell you a lot more than any of us would.

There is a form at the bottom of every page on this site to get in touch with a paralegal. You do want to fight this as it can really #$%^ your insurance rates.
