Re: Speeding 60 in a 40 km/h zone, Court date rescheduled

If you talk to the crown first then you take your chances. If you can come across as accurate then they will have little to argue and may drop the charge. Or you could take your chances with the JP.

Re: Alleged Collision - may face charge of leaving the scene

No contact no foul, in my eyes at least. You mentioned the bags on the handle bars though, did you mention that to the officer? Just to be on the safe side, write down all the details you can remember so if the officer shows up again you can explain your side as well as possible.

You will find discussion here:http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic747.html

If you stop and read the labels on most aftermarket accessories they will say "check local laws" or something close to that. Just because CT sells them does not make them legal.

When the car is produced it is allowed to read plus but not minus, otherwise the car manufacturer is at fault, tsk, tsk.

I have a question related to this. Charge is 39 over the limit.

Officer on bridge notes say he clocked a Gry "my kind of car"

5k later officer who pulled me over notes he pulled over a Tan "my kind of car"

My car is Tan.

If they both show up should I put all of my eggs in this basket?

I have heard of cases where the officer says " I pulled you over because your signal was flashing too fast" or similar and the JP tosses the case. Why officers don't just say they were checking documents is beyond me.
