Re: Odometer fraud

Thanks, I'll pass that on.

Also, it is illegal to do that, right? Someone else posted that it was only illegal to sell a vehicle with an altered odometer, so the ones offering the service were off the hook as long as they weren't car salesmen. But I found it to be an offense under the Weights and Measures Act - is that criminal?

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

HAHAHA

Duct tape, rope, hunting knife, bleach, garbage bags, condoms. :twisted:

Bookm - did they do a lot of "coaching" on CWD? Are the contestants really as bad as they come across as, or are they coached into doing certain things? :(

Odometer fraud

Are the cops interested in the ones who perform this service? Reason I ask is because someone on another forum I post on snapped a picture of an advertisement for "odometer correction" in the GTA.

Re: Expired drivers License

Definitely. I also like that the site isn't too busy; I lurked for a while on the Blueline forums, but just couldn't keep up with the mountain of posts every day. They also have LEO-only forums, so it's harder to really get to know them.

If I had known more cops like Bear and with his attitude, I probably would have joined the service right out of ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

I hate those cart blockers. I hug the right side of the aisle even when not stopping, so I can stop whenever I want without pulling the cart to the side. I have considered before that supermarket cart etiquette could very well be a reflection of a person's driving etiquette. The number of morons in a supermarket seem to match the number of morons ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

Way I read it 150(1)(b) also has to have met 150(1)(a) as well.

The way I read it, the 'or' at the end of (b) means that any of the conditions in either (a), (b), or (c) are valid for passing on the right, along with the condition in (1) that the movement can be made in safety (where the 'and' article applies).

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

I completely missed 151. But now that you brought my attention to it, check out subsection 7:

"A paved shoulder on any part of a highway that is designated under this section shall be deemed not to be part of the roadway within the meaning of the definition of "roadway" in subsection 1 (1) or part of the pavement for the purposes of clause 150 (1 ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

Which is why I'm confused that passing on the shoulder wouldn't be a charge under s. 150. Subsection 150(3) gives a few exemptions including driving on a paved shoulder, but the vehicle being passed has to be turning left (which is impossible from the right lane on a divided highway).

I await Bear's reply with bated breath...I always enjoy his ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

Or were there trucks in the right lane and the officer passed them on the shoulder? In the latter case, it would be "passing off roadway" (s. 150 (2)) but I'm pretty sure an officer can do so if on a call, lights or not.

For anyone, Sect 150 does not apply either on a "paved" shoulder! Fail to drive in a marked lane does...FYI

Really? But the ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

The part of s. 172 you referenced states, "...repeatedly changing lanes in close proximity to other vehicles so as to advance through the ordinary flow of traffic while driving at a rate of speed that is a marked departure from the lawful rate of speed."

So it would be an unsafe lane change anyways, but repeatedly doing so in order to speed will ...

Re: O.P.P criuser impounded under 172

Not that I know of. Which section would that be in violation of?

It might draw the attention of an officer who then tickets you for speeding.

Re: Mounting plates

Subsection (1) defines the term used in subsection (2). You can pretty much substitute the definition from subsection (1) into subsection (2):

"No person shall drive on a highway a motor vehicle that is equipped with or that carries or contains any device or equipment designed or intended for use in a motor vehicle to warn the driver of the ...
