Re: Radar detectors & tickets?

TXS, well you live and learn,

Can police detect my radar detector?
O.P.P. in Ontario, Quebec Police (Sret du Qubec or SQ), and RCMP across eastern Canada use Spectre radar-detector-detectors (RDD). Spectre RDD will notify the officer if a radar detector has been detected near-by. Penalty includes a minimum fine of $350 in ...

Re: Radar detectors & tickets?

Jammers can be detected, detectors can't, (they do not emit any form of emission - they just listen)
only way they can find it, is by a visual inspection, or if they hit your car with the radar and listen for the ping, unless you have a hidden power switch

Yeah, usually when you're caught with a detector/jammer the officers device (usually a ...

Re: OPP CHOPPER details

I thought.. There are mileage markers painted on the highway at specified intervals and then the OPP uses a stopwatch to time how fast you go from one mileage marker to the next. He then looks at a table that converts time and distance into km/h and radios to a cruiser to pull you over. Both the officer in the airplane and the officer in the ...

Re: First speeding ticket will my insurance increase?

I wouldn't "lie" to an insurance company, because that "will" put you in some unsafe territory.
Possibly fraud, and in the case of an accident, they could walk away.

correct about the demerit points


Remember that insurance increases have nothing do with demerit points. So even a charge with 0 demerit points could still increase your insurance ...

Re: First speeding ticket will my insurance increase?

thats true, but the term "accident forgiveness" which you sometimes pay an extra premium is for at fault accidents not traffic tickets.
And also the forgiveness is ONLY for that company at renewal,
if you have AF and change companies, its not valid.

I know this because I asked around ;)

Are these illegal too ?

OR more to the point, (officers on the board) if you saw a car with that on, driving safely etc, would you give it a tug?

ok, so I understand now, why the plate covers can be an issue,
but the dealer trims, don't cover the numbers or tag (or rather shouldnt) I understand that they are still "technically illegal"

On my drive home yesterday I saw at least 2 cars with blue tinted covers, and 90% of the cars had dealer trims the rest had nothing.

and I also agree with OPS Copper 100%, any of my dealing with LE I'm always 110%,

so why is this such a big thing now?

I've seen cars all over with either a full plastic cover, or the dealer trims, In fact I gotta dealer trim recently.

People sometimes use the full clear plastic to protect the plate, especially if its a vanity plate... whats the issue?
