Re: tagged by laser gun for exceeding 20 over, reduced to 5

If you see the officer again, please be sure to commend him on his great police work for sitting at a speed change nailing people for 20 over and writing it up as 5 over.. What a waste of time - for what a few dollars in the local coffers?

I think this serves a dual purpose. Stops this from going to court and the offender gets no points ...

Re: Quick question, is this ok.....

The court will have the original document so no worries there except that, if there were any typo's on the original you won't know about them.

The only thing I can add is that if the crown hands you disclosure right before the trial, accept it but, try for an adjuornment based on "more time to read it......" and make sure the JP notes that this ...

Re: Different speed limits on each direction of the road

You said it before, print off a map and mark the speed signs, try to show the direction of travel associated with the signs as well. There is no reason whatsoever that I can think of that would allow, say east bound traffic to travel faster then west bound traffic<< just an example.

Example #2. 4-series highways, the only time I see different ...

Re: Different speed limits on each direction of the road

I just was reading the OHTA and found this:

Variable speed limits

128.0.1 (1) The Minister may designate any highway or portion of a highway where variable maximum rates of speed may be set in accordance with this section. 2005, c. 26, Sched. A, s. 18.

Same

(2) An official of the Ministry authorized by the Minister in writing may, from time ...

Re: 11b - Good News

And that is perfectly fine. How many tickets does an officer write in a given day??? And would the officer and the Crown not have the "canned" statementsvpretty much copy and pasted from another trial, school, whatever the case maybe. It is not a stretch to say that traffic tickets should be dealt with quickly and efficently.

Re: 11b - Good News

From a citizens point of view, Yeah!. 11 months 4 days. <<<<<<<<< It's right there.

From a "I would like to see the justice system stop tripping over it's own feet" POV, Yeah! And by that I mean that traffic tickets are written everyday, deal with them quickly.

Re: Got rear ended by TTC Street Car

I would get a hold of the video, it seems to be the main source of the charge. Review it and go from there. This charge is very serious and you may want to consult with a paralegal............... there is a form at the bottom of the page.
