It's private property. That's up to the owners. They'll have officials that will inspect your vehicle either way. If they allow it, you'll have follow particular safety guidelines and make sure the racing class type allows it. They used to mark cars with nitrous for the emergency responders incase of an accident

By the sound of it, you're a G2 driver. The problem here is that you're on driving probation.
Within the last year or two, they've made no handheld devices practically a condition on your novice license, hence the 30 day suspension.

When did he receive the speeding ticket? Demerit points last 2 years from the day you receive your ticket. If you need to stretch it out, you can ask for a court date and that might push you over the 2 year mark on your last ticket.

All four of your tickets have nothing to do with this road rage incident.

It wont state bumper. It'll say front and rear. The front or rear may not be the bumper depending on obstructions (guards, racks, spare tires), it might be your tailgate, or even the portion of a trunk that extends to the rear. That is why it doesn't say bumper.

Onus is on the driver to turn when it is safe to do so, regardless of other drivers using turn signals. I think that confuses some drivers the most. You just have to assume the other driver wont turn.

You have to be legally parked to handle your device. Stopping at a red light does not meet the criteria.
Whether or not you were using the device is also irrelevant. The law makes it clear that simply holding the device is enough.
You are not entitled to ask the officer questions roadside. The side of the road is not a courtroom. It's perfectly ...

I don't know if legal representation is all that necessary, but that's up to you.
I believe 159 (1)(b) sits together with the "move over" laws. 3 demerit points for those. The high fine is due to increased public frustration within the last couple years for drivers who are oblivious to emergency vehicles.
