Re: Help 3 questions :)
1. My insurance guy said if I get a ticket my insurance will DOUBLE (it is already 210 a month) When I'm fighting these in court what should I do? That's what this whole site is about, the answers are here, but they depend on what your intention is I've herd that it could be droped to an infraction or something like that but when you apply for ...

Re: Charged with wrong offence: HTA 62(11) instead of HTA 62
1. What are the chances of getting this dropped by a JoP based on the incorrect offense?
2. Is HTA 62(19) a significantly higher fine and the cop was "helping me out"?
3. I also blew a .50: a 3-day suspension. I know it's stupid and I'm not here to debate or defend that I was in the wrong, because I know I was. Does this have any bearing on the ...

Re: Is this charge too heavy for me?
Well, I'm sure then that your uncle will tell you that following the speed limit does not mean you can not be guilty of careless, nor does wearing your seatbelt. You were ticketed for careless for one of 2 reasons: either the officer felt you were guilty of careless driving or they didn't know what other charge to lay but felt you needed to be ...

Yes, it's called pacing. Police vehicle speedometers are calibrated so it's accepted in court.paradigm wrote:can he use his speedometer to register a valid speeding ticket for me?

Re: 100 in a 60 - please help!!
The answers to your questions are all over this forum in other threads.
I would point out though that a speeding ticket for someone applying to policing is not a big deal. Especially if he can say that he just made a mistake and it's not a pattern of behaviour. Police departments don't expect (and don't get) perfect candidates.

Re: 32-9 Clarification Question
The MTO may suspend a licence for novice violations. I do not know if that is what happened here. It may have been a suspension for the 32(9) violation, which they are entitled to do, though 7 months does seem harsh. It also seems possible that the suspension was automatic upon conviction for BAC above 0 conviction and then when that conviction was ...

Re: Trial this week, no disclosure sent.
If you requested disclosure and the crown has had ample time to produce it and doesn't and the trial dates comes, you should be able to request an adjournment. The delay between that date and the next one counts against the crown for an 11(b) motion.

Re: Sufficient disclosure period?
I do not believe there is any minimum time...it just has to be "reasonable". If you feel it is not, then your remedy is to request an adjournment to give you opportunity to review the disclosure.

Re: Need some advice for my husband
You should clarify whether this is a warrant in the 1st instance, in which case he has a court date to appear at, or if this is a warrant of committal as punishment for driving suspended. If the latter, there is no court date, you go straight to jail. In either case, I think it would be a good idea to consult a lawyer.

Re: Muffler offence
Depends on your jurisdiction. Usually it involves you sending a request by fax or mail to the court house asking for all documents in their possession related to their case against you, or something to that effect.

Re: seize your car for 7 days..Watch out suspended drivers.
I'd just like to point out that this isn't really much of a change. Police have always had the authority under s. 217(4) of the HTA to seize and impound a vehicle indefinitely , until a judge orders it released or the proceedings related to it in court are complete, for any offence where an arrest is made in relation to the vehicle. That includes ...

Re: Careless Driving - Rear ended Another Car
Case of City of London v. Young and one other one that I've mentioned in previous posts with that one (the name escapes me now) deal specifically with the issue of incorrect set and total payable fines. Search some of my previous posts for the names and links to the cases.
