Re: PLEASE HELP! DUI IN USA

Interesting.....my only experience was running CRs on people that I knew had DUIs in the US and they came back clear.

But, based on the possibility, I'd drop the $25 and be sure - although these things can take time to hit the system.

I can't imagine how one would need to get a Canadian pardon for an offence that wasn't committed in Canada but I ...

Re: How long do the police have to submit a traffic ticket

Are you waiting for a ticket or a trial date ? The two are different.

Re: Disobey Sign: Illegal Right Turn

I don't think that misleading is what you need to look for. You need to get the justice to agree that the sign doesn't match the requirements of the regulation. If they do then the sign is invalid. Personally I don't see it but keep us posted.

Re: PLEASE HELP! DUI IN USA

To have a criminal conviction in Canada you'd have to have been found guilty by a Canadian court which you were not. The penalty is an administrative one based on reciprocity.

You do not have a Canadian Criminal Recird but you couldn't answer no to the question have you been convicted of a criminal offence.

Re: Case Law- Disclosure of only testing pages of radar manu

What if the crown/police doesn't have a digital copy but only a paper one ? You are now asking for disclosure of something that they do not have.

Re: 70 km/h in 50 km/h - Cop was wrong...

How is it a cash grab having signs that indicate what speed you should be going ? The warning signs are a courtesy to allow you to slow your car down to the new sped limit ahead which is in effect when you reach the sign.

A cash grab would be if there were no warning signs.

Re: Case Law- Disclosure of only testing pages of radar manu

The case above only orders the disclosure of the testing pages, not the whole manual as you would like:

"Therefore, it is hereby ordered that the prosecutor provide by way of disclosure in the matters of Mr. Rose and Mr. Millar, photocopies of the pages of the Genesis II Users and Installation Manual relating to testing procedures and operation of ...

Re: Help for my first speeding ticket

That's a pretty big allegation to say the officer is lying. Do you really think he or she is going to fabricate a speeding charge and jeopardise a $100k a year job just to issue you a ticket ?

Re: Big wall with hidden cop car behind it

The fact they have lights and sirens on does not mean they can fly through red lights. It is their responsibility to make sure their way is safe.

Conviction is the date you were convicted. The payment options mean nothing.
