Ontario Highway Traffic Act

There doesn't need to be a line. If there is no line, you stop before the crosswalk. If there is no crosswalk, you stop before the intersection.

I also toss in a short form code sheet with my notes....so if the person wants they can go thru and write out the big picture themself.

That works, too. As long as there is some way to allow the defendant to understand what the notes mean instead of guessing at the codes. For instance, someone might interpret "PSD BLU VN 82 KM" as meaning ...

Would also prevent auto theft or unauthorized driving... yep, gov't would screw it up. Never mind.

Don't you watch CSI? You can steal someone's fingerprint with strawberry Jello.

I agree with most of you guys. If disclosure is requested, I think the notes should be typed up and the short forms and code expanded to something meaningful. No need for grammatically correct sentences, but "PSD BLU VN 82KM" could be expanded to "Passed blue van, 82 km/h" (I think that's what it means). Things like "(disp, ram, rom, dsp p, t , spd ...

As far as I know, Richmond Hill is a separate municipality and what applies in Vaughn would be irrelevant in Richmond Hill.

Try contacting the by-law department of the Town of Richmond Hill.

Also, here is Richmond Hill's fire route bylaw:

Didn't the article mention that he was charged with driving without insurance? I thought that carried a minimum $10K fine all on its own, with the JP having the discretion to drop it a bit if your sob story is good enough.

For the most part, a "fire route" applies to the entire roadway. However, each city maintains it's own fire route bylaw, and some require signs on both sides under certain conditions.

Thanks guys

DEF a handwritten ticket --- So im really not supposed to do ANYTHING until I get a notice? What do I do with the notice when i get it? Call the prosecutor?

Sorry for all the questions, but i just want to make sure I handle it correctly

I would not count on this advise. I would call the court and ask them. Or contact a Paralegal ...

Is this a normal fill-in-the-blank ticket, or one that came from one of those handheld or mobile printers? The ones that are fully printed (no writing on the part of the officer) may not require a signature.

You should have jogged in place alongside his window, yelling "Slow down!" while grabbing your hat to keep it from flying off.

An old auto teacher of mine told us of his run-in with the law at a stop light. This one car of his had front/rear split brake circuits, and he installed a line lock to keep his front brakes on. He had a 'Cuda at one point, but I don't think this was with that car. Stopped at a red light, the car beside him revs their engine. He flips on the line ...

NASCAR fans, obviously.

There is also that group of drivers who think the left lane is the 'passing lane', the centre lane is the 'travel lane', and the right lane is the 'merge lane'.

Why? Why?!

The confusion with this whole 'keep right except to pass' thing is at least partly because, as far as I know, we have no straightforward law that says simply keep right except to pass . We have two separate laws that just barely hint at keeping right, one of which is based on a questionable interpretation of a law seemingly meant to allow cars to ...

Squishy we could have it your way, no one would have to move right, the result would be no lane discipline at all.

What exactly do you think 'my way' is?
