Re: plaincloths officer stopped me for not checking
If this was an auxiliary, are they always "on-duty" like a regular constable is? I think I remember a few getting in trouble for taking the "tin" from their hat and putting it in their wallet to flash around.

Don't worry, my guess is that one of the admins/mods did it by accident. They have an "Edit" button for every post on here which is right next to the "Quote" button.

Re: obstruct plate
HwyBear, do you know if that $20 gets you the same number or are you issued a completely new one?
Thank you HwyBear.... the word Ontario could clearly be read in this case...just tip of the letters was covered by dea;ership cover .
What/who is actually being obstructed by being unable to see the word Ontario ?
Apparently you can also be ...

Re: "improper use of headlights"
:? The full subsection reads: "No person shall use highbeam headlamps that produce alternating flashes of white light on any vehicle other than a vehicle referred to in subsection (1). R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 169 (2)."
Vehicles referred to in (1) are "a public utility emergency vehicle while responding to an emergency and by an emergency vehicle ...

Re: "improper use of headlights"
Do you remember what the charge was? I wonder if anyone has actually lost a court case for this under an "alternating lights" charge. Would that set a precedent for this alternate (ha ha, pun) interpretation?
To me, that section prohibits flashing highbeams where the beam alternates between the left and right lamps (i.e., left on, right off > left ...

Re: obstruct plate
We have an old plate that holds sentimental value (first plate ever issued) and we did get a warning about the rust, but no ticket. I have since cleaned up the majority of the rust and moved the worse of the set to the front, but now the paint looks very faded, though still legible. I'm also curious if non-vanity-plates can be replaced, and whether ...

Re: Using Centre Lane Improperly
154 (1) (b) applies only to a three-lane road. You were on a five-lane road, in which case you can argue that this clause neither prohibited nor allowed your actions (with strong emphasis on "did not prohibit").
I'm not sure if they can turn around and issue a new ticket, though.

Re: Using Centre Lane Improperly
I think the wrong clause was cited. From what the officer seems to think you did, (c) looks like the correct clause - official signs (or lane markings) were present indicating that the centre lane is only to be used as a turning lane.
I'm not entirely familiar with that area, but I think it's actually a five-lane road - a centre lane with two ...

Re: obstruct plate
What about a ticket for the very top of the word Ontario being covered by the dealership plate holder , can they actually give a ticket for such an assinine reason ? What is best way to fight it ?
Any sort of alteration to the plate can be ticketed - this includes dealer signs, transparent/translucent covers, even if a kid took a magic marker to ...

Re: Case Law Update
Who words these things? Is it just carried over from the proposal, or is there some guy who spends his life writing the HTA?
Sounds like someone got carried away with the media hype over our new "street racing" law. Then again, what should 172 be called? The "racing/stunting/wager" law?
Looking at subsection (1), I don't even think the commas are ...

Re: "G1 unaccompanied by qualified driver"
Ask your friend to look at his license - the older purpley trillium license would show four white dots on a red strip under his picture if he is qualified to accompany a G1 driver. I think the newer design shows four black dots on a vertical line beside the picture, but I'm not sure.

Re: Case Law Update
I don't think the semantics of the heading matter. "Every person who commits an offence" would be all-inclusive. Now if it read "Every person who commits an offence under section 130, or an offence of racing under section 172, in a community safety zone when it is in effect..." then you would be off the hook for 50-over.
