Re: A question about 11(b)
It will make your case stronger. However if you try to argue a motion, the court is going to dismiss your request for an interpreter if they feel you are able to conduct yourself sufficiently, so be aware of that.

Re: Speeding 70 km/h in a 50 km/h Zn.-Prince Edward Viad. Trap
I don't disagree with you about the fatal error, I was just commenting on your ideas about creating a defence.
Arguing an error on a ticket can sometimes be problematic however, since if you take it to trial to make the argument, they can always ask that the JP amend the certificate, which they may or may not do. If you don' take it to trial and ...

Re: what are my chances against the MOE?
The officer who inspected the vehicle is the one who has to testify in order to avoid it being hearsay.

Re: Speeding 138km/h on 404. Appeal possibility?
The rate in section 128 is to be used for the purpose of calculating a sentence for speeding after a trial. There is an appendix in the POA with a different amount that is used for the purpose of the set fines.

Re: A question about 11(b)
If the interpreter doesn't show the JP may stay the charges, but that's their call. They will not proceed without an interpreter unless you agree to waive your request for one. The other possibility is that they will adjourn to a later date. If the officer doesn't show the crown will withdraw or ask for an adjournment.

Re: Speeding 70 km/h in a 50 km/h Zn.-Prince Edward Viad. Trap
All speeding charges are under section 128.
Speeding is an absolute liability offence, which means that there are no defences. The court will not hear or consider anything you have to say with regards to a defence.

Re: A question about 11(b)
So you're saying you need an interpreter for the English language? English to what?
It's fine to have no defence except your charter application, but once the trial commences your chance to plead guilty and ask for any leniency is gone. That being said, you can't get any more point than are associated with the charge. Points are not within the ...

Re: what are my chances against the MOE?
Your changes, like everyone else's, depends on the merits of your own case. They are no greater or less because you are dealing with the MOE.
I'm curious how you plan on arguing that you've been singled out because you drive an older car. Do you have any independent evidence of this, or it is just your opinion? This might be a difficult line of ...

Re: how to determine officer show/no-show
It's not necessarily one way or the other. But you lose your leverage for a plea bargain the closer you get to the trial, especially if they've gone through the trouble of having the officer and witnesses attend court. The purpose of a plea bargain is to reward people who accept responsibilities for their actions early on in the process and spare ...

Re: Red Light proceed before green
Ticket has 3 points associated with it - those are non negotiable. No way to not get those points except to not be found guilty of the offence, or plead to a lesser offence.
