Ontario Highway Traffic Act

You mean the cross examination? That's more an art than a science and how it goes depends largely on how the prosecutor's examination n chief goes so im not really sure what i can say by way of general advice.

Good question...not sure, I think just calendar days.

Rules of Criminal Procedure say 15 days minimum.

I can't tell from your post if you're aware of this or not, but if your case gets adjourned you are not arraigned on that date. It's only if your adjournment is denied that they proceed with arraignment and you have to enter a plea.

With respect to your oral arguments for a stay based on insufficient disclosure (a s. 7 argument) and unreasonable ...

What for?

In response to Viper: The staging could have been because someone up ahead was going to do a high risk takedown or something like that...who knows. You're correct response whenever an emergency vehicle is approaching is to move to the right, hence the reason why it's so dangerous to pass on the right. I would know what else to suggest you could do ...

Passing on the right is VERY dangerous. They teach you at police college never to do it, but they hardly need to say that for obvious reasons: everybody is taught to move over to the right for emergency vehicles. That being said, my opinion is that the only thing likely to make officers drive that fast and dangerously (unthinkingly perhaps?) is ...

I've answered more than a few questions about demerit points on this forum and during my time as a police officer, so I decided to write an article about it, which can be found here: http://simonborys.wordpress.com/2011/06/28/demerit-points-in-ontario/

I hope that if people search this board for "demerit points" they read the article before asking ...

Depends whether you feel it's worth it to put the time/money into it.

Ok, my understanding from what you wrote was that you requested an adjournment because you didnt have all the documents the officer wanted to see before recommending that certain charges be dropped. That would be on you. If the record reflects that it was because of outstanding disclosure thats a different story, but you didnt mention anything ...

Don't be surprised if you don't actually get anything on that list. And with respect to the radar manual specifically, it's unusual to get more than 1 or a couple pages.

First, the officer has no authority to have the tickets dropped once he submits the tickets to court. He can make recommendations to the prosecutor, but ultimately it is not his call as to what happens, so don't rely on his word that they anything will be dropped. Also, I would be surprised if they would drop 8 out of 9 charges and just leave you ...

Also, it is an offence to drive in Ontario on a licence from another jurisdiction while your Ontario licence is suspended. It is also an offence to obtain a second Ontario licence if you already have one.

Normally when it the defendant agrees that they were speeding but disputes the amount (i.e. I was going 110 but not 135), the court prefers the officer's evidence of you speed, obtained with instruments specifically designed for that purpose over your evidence of "I just don't think I was going that fast." Just something to be mindful of...

Also ...

No one except your insurance company can give you an idea of who a particular ticket will affect your insurance since it depends on too many unknown factors. Anyone who says otherwise is either lying or just guessing.
