I had appealed a conviction 6 months ago. I'm still waiting on the city to serve me with transcripts. After almost four months I went to the courthouse just to make sure they haven't been trying to get a hold of me. The clerk didn't even bother looking. She said 4 months is too soon and they are really backed up. She said I was looking at a 6 ...

Fight the ticket. Take a picture of the motorbikes and proceed to court. The rules of the road apply equally to both MC's and cars so.........Your management group is trying dirty tricks to get you to pay for more then what you need.

That reminds me of this: http://www.windsorstar.com/sports/2010wintergames/skeleton/Driver+ticketed+flipping+bird/1858768/story.html


and this excerpt..... The driver was stopped by Northumberland OPP and issued a ticket.

As he was pulling away, he flashed a one-finger salute at the officer, who then stopped the vehicle again.

The man was ...

What is considered by the courts an unacceptable time for getting a trial date set?

When was the offence date and when is the trial date?? 12 month's between is a good case for an 11b Charter arguement. 11b, is the right to a speedy trial.

Yes, whenever I drive someone else's car I conduct a thorough check of all mechanical and safety systems (including crawling underneath) before I run down to the store :?

Yes I'm being sarcastic :roll:

A $10 fix-it ticket would be the normal choice of OUR local PD.

Just saying it's up to the cop. Besides, I've seen you drive and nobody I ...

Shouldn't the owner of the vehicle be responsible for the car's fitness ?

It's up to the officer. The driver is always responsible for their vehicle....

This may sound a bit daft, but what is a tracking history? I'd like to gain a better understanding of this if I'm going to use this in my defence.

Tracking History: (AHEM) is the simple act of the officer visually monitoring a vehicle and determining that it is travelling above the Posted Speed Limit, before he uses a Speed Measuring Device, i.e ...

I did some investigating on this unit and found some info regarding the MPH Bee III unit.

"Mph doesn't recommend using the POP Mode exclusively because it excludes getting a proper "tracking history" taken in this mode"

So if I get pulled over by an officer who used POP mode to tag me, can the crown/officer cannot use the radar evidence against ...

I didn't like him that much...... damn, I got kids......

If that's the case, I'd recommend paying the fine. If the officer did clock you doing 95 but lowered it to 75, that's a pretty big reduction. .

Sounds like discretion for a student. Not going to let the student completely off, but give the student a break with all the expenses of school and who maybe has a part time job.

I had a nice officer ...

I think that I got a ridiculously expensive and unfair speeding ticket today. I was passing someone and approaching a blind hill so I was obviously accelerating to get in front before getting to the hill. There was another car behind me following me as I passed the slow moving car. Once I got past the car I moved over and the hill started down. I ...

Yeah, but tea stains worse then coffee

Here's what happened.

I was following my front car at the same speed, then a few minutes later, a police car suddenly appeared at my back and stopped me for speeding.

He seized my car (7 days) and my driver license (7 days), and gave me a ticket for speeding and I have to go to the court of Ontario Court of Justice in 2 months.

As for your other questions, YES it is possible that an officer could pull two people over and get them on radar but it makes it less likely that the radar gun was tested after each use (but not impossible to my knowledge). .

Unit has to be tested before and after the offence, not each individual use. I test start of day, end of day....plus ...

Yellow is cautionary/ recommended speed, this usually occurs on ramps, tight curves

And just like the YELLOW lines on the road, they are advisory. If you cause a collision while not adhering to the advisory your a$$ is grass, at least that's my take on it.

Already posted. Locked.

From what I know, 525 m and beam divergence 3 milliradians, let's see carry the 9, and the beam is 1.575 meters in diameter, or bigger then the frontal area of your car. The officer could have taken the reading from a car around you. Plus at that distance if the beam to targeting dot is out even 0.2 ...

As long as you pay something, you should be able to file the appeal. Even then you don't have to pay first, TC may be able to explain that. I agree 100% that the system is faulty and there should be some sort of restitution for your extended annoyance.
