Re: Speeding 75KM/H in 50 KM/H zone

In regards to number 4, doesn't your calculations show you were travelling at 50-60 km/hr so you were speeding?

Bobajob. Read the above. This is about avoiding the suspension on points.

Re: careless driving because pedestrian claims my car hit he

I would suspect that this complaint was made in the heat of the road-rage moment and now the witness doesn't want to be involved, using illness as an excuse. It may just go away at the next appearance.....

....but plan for the worst. Your paralegal needs to have some good cross skills.

Re: careless driving because pedestrian claims my car hit he

Illness will always get an adjournment. If they just failed to attend then that is another matter entirely.

My experience of JPs is different than above. Maybe I've just been fortunate but I have found JPs to be very non-biased, sometimes even verging on the side of the defendant. I would have thought that it would be possible to mount a credible ...

Re: Speeding and Follow Too Closely

So you're using the argument that he was doing it so I should be able to as well. You are very much falling into the trap of another post on another thread which said examine why you are going to court. It sounds to me like you are expecting to be found guilty but just want your voice to be heard. Sadly it won't be - you will be shut down by the ...

Re: Speeding and Follow Too Closely

On a side note, while your questions about the Officer and his/her rate of speed are an interesting discussion. I wouldn't get too focused on them as they have no impact on your case.

So you're saying an officer can speed without fear of repercussion? .

How do you get that from what OTD Legal said ???

He identified you from your driver's ...

Re: No Registration fine while waiting for trial on SAME thi

You are incorrect. You could be stopped every time you take the car on the road. Imagine if you were right and you were awaiting trial for having no insurance and so you could drive with no insurance for the best part of a year. That makes no sense.

Re: Appeal Red light conviction

The problem is not the date that the notes were written but the fact that your request under the Privacy Act did not get any results. There would have been a computer record of the incident created right when it happened but that was not forthcoming either. That shows that nothing came up. You might have an argument to be made if you had got the ...

Re: How long does it take before getting mailed a ticket?

Not completely true. There are other mandatory reporting requirements in respect of a collision other than just providing your name.

Re: Appeal Red light conviction

Ottawa. I requested the disclosure from prosecutor as soon as I received the court date but they didn't give me the officers note more than 3 month later. Also, officers not doesn't have a date written. I asked officer in the court specifically that if the note belongs to the RCMP or you and he said:RCMP. But RCMP letter shows they didn't have it ...

Re: Appeal Red light conviction

Just to be clear - this was in Ontario, right? It isn't often that the RCMP write traffic tickets in Ontario.

It isn't just notes that the letter above says they didn't have, it says they have nothing. This suggests that either they made an error or you made an error somewhere in your request perhaps to whom you sent it. This doesn't show that ...
