You're saying you 'imagine the car sped up to 126-127', he's going to say his calibrated authorised equipment said 130. See where this is going ?

Please do let us know how it goes. Few do, but it is much appreciated.

I do think you are failing to see the woods for the individual trees you are looking at. One minute isn't going to be considered enough for a quash.

On the other issue you are asking the JP to effectively cancel every such ticket in the province or to dig up roads to move the coils. It just isn't going to happen. For a second, imagine that they ...

I'm afraid you're going down a route that others have tried and failed at. Just because the pictures do not contain all the elements of the offence does not mean that the charge is not made out. You must have approached the intersection in order to be there. And just because you cannot see the front bumper does not mean the JP cannot make an ...

It isn't just parked.....it's parked and with the flashing red lights activated.

The phone has to be mounted, ie attached to the vehicle. A case doesn't make any difference.

ah yes, that makes sense.

There is a lawyer working your case so let them do their job. The amount of the claim is ludicrous and she is just hoping for an easy settlement. If the insurance company want to give her one to save on legal fees then that is fine but there is no way (based on what you have told us) that it is even going to be close to the million limit.

I don't quite understand. The notes seem to say that you were travelling in the same direction as the cruiser but then it says they used opposite mode and did a U-turn ?

Hi,
Thanks for your advice.
In answer to your query, I was driving on a sinuous road in a residential area in Toronto, and when I glanced at my clock, I continued straight and hit two cars in the oncoming lane. It was the weekend, and although there were a lot of cars on the road, traffic was flowing. I was following traffic, and it did not feel ...

How the second summons came to be reissued is irrelevant to your situation. You have to deal with the fact that it has been.

There is nothing to stop you trying to plead your case for a no licence deal - you may get a different Crown or the same Crown in a better mood. You have nothing to lose by asking.

Other than that, you're going to be really ...

Yup and that is a clear zero not just a bad pen !

Did you object at the time ?

On what grounds ?

The police officer is going to testify that you were holding it. It may come down to a he said / she said situation.

I reveiwed that case. It seems as though the manual is still allowed, you just have to petition the police for it.

[34] The position taken by the respondent is that any ruling that results in agents being required to commence an O'Connor application every time the testing procedure is sought would impair access to justice and clog up the courts ...

Some more details of what happened would help but it sounds like you strayed into the incoming lane.

Alternative charges could be Failure to Drive in Marked Lane, Failure to Turn Out to Avoid Collision.

While a conviction doesn't help the civil liability prices is a different one. It sounds like you won't really have a leg to stand on when it ...

Read the link provided by Decatur. It speaks specifically to O'Connor.

Tickets from the police and 'at fault' from the insurance company are separate items.

I'd be contacting the insurers and taking direction from them as they're the ones going to be paying out if the judgement is unfavorable.

Why are you dealing with this ? Surely this is between her and your insurance company.

There's nothing personal about the officer turning up. It's his job and, in many detachments, he'll get in trouble for not doing so.

This is a tough one to beat. Either the car was registered or it wasn't. I do feel for you though. I've borrowed vehicles from friends and never demanded to see the paperwork. Certainly I should have but you just assume.

What is it that you think you don't deserve ? As a new/young driver the law doesn't have a threshold where your ability to drive is impaired as it does for older/more experienced drivers - it sets the limit at zero.

You chose to ignore this, rolled the dice and lost.

I just want some crown to use that in their summation. I know of at least two who I could see giving it a shot !

There is no point in going for atrial unless you have a chance of winning. (f you know you are going to lose then ab solely plead guilty. You will be given a chance to address the judge before they pass sentence and this is where people get it wrong - they try to explain why they were speeding (for example) rather than just showing complete remorse ...

I would think that was a logical explanation. Either the officer or someone else at the station noticed the wrong date and binned it. They could serve you a replacement ticket but the chances of that are essentially nil.

If you post the disclosure (blacking out personal info) we can comment further.

These are hard tickets to fight. She did park without a permit and didn't have the sticker. Your best bet might be to see if the court will let you plead to one and have the other dropped.

That is true but as they are in big yellow boxes everyone assumes that there is a camera in each one and therefore doesn't speed. The thing that they are using now which is very successful is average speed monitoring over stretches of roads. You get an average speed limit of 40 mph on a motorway for roadworks and EVERYONE slows down....otherwise ...
