Hey Gent's

Has been a long time, so this is regarding mrs.bobajob.

She got a ticket for "failing to stop at a stop sign" although we have a dashcam and she swore she stopped, she didn't TELL me about it for 2 days. So all dash footage was recorded over (DOH !)

Now I checked the ticket out no fatal errors in it.

BUT, on talking with my 7 year ...

txs guys

my other car has cruise but the speedo is in "clicks"
I'll chat to my insurance guys on Monday.

txs Markus

actually did a little perusing on the web

is constant , green or amber allowed ?


Why would you want to add extra lights that only serve to draw attention to your car.? I like to be as inconspicuous as possible.

As far as green, I know that's the colour used by volunteer firefighters.

Amber should be allowed, yes, but not flashing ...

* do I need a visa

Pretty sure I know the answer, but gonna ask.

What color LED lights (as in low level highlight) behind the front grill (only coming on with fog lights)
If not obey the reg's is it a ticket and demerits or just a "fix it ticket/warning"
(oh and there constant on not flashing)

txs all

your subject is "flashing lights"

are you wanting to put on flashing lights on permanent lights

unless there is a reason for particular flashing lights as per statue I believe permanent amber is fine

Flashing red lights, visible from any direction on a vehicle, are restricted to law enforcement vehicles only. This restriction does not include ...

txs,

I didn't think you could get ticket forgiveness ? TBH a 1st minor ticket is not going to hit you hard if at all (depending on the tix)
(talking from experience)

TD / meloche monnet don't do ticket, because we asked them.

Who are you with?

What is the cost on 1st minor ticket, be interesting to know, if what your paying for is "what" you ...

but by not answering there question , surly that is what your doing your obstructing their investigation ?

Your thoughts on this,

I understand what this entails, I've just qualified for this I think it's like around 50bucks for the remainder of my year.

Does the group think this is a good idea or a money grab ?

Does the group have this option ?

Not to sound harsh, but driving oblivious is not a defense. Also, it's an absolute liability offense. That means you either did or didn't drive through the red light. There's no middle ground.

Preaching to the choir

just my IMHO
there's a saying "if you can't do the time, don't do the crime"

Jumping red lights are dangerous, I was in a tbone, because the other driver did just this, so my perspective is fairly harsh on this.
When driving you should be 100%, actually 110%, your concentration should be on driving.

As already stated, it's a glorified parking ...

good info dude,
question
If you are asked a question and you refuse to answer can they not get you on obstruction ?

If not (or if so) what are examples of obstruction

Remember you have the right to NOT talk to police and to NOT answer any questions.

They can not charge the DRIVER unless they can identify the driver. If they show up asking ...

I would say, yes you could

"Causing disturbance, indecent exhibition, loitering, etc.
175. (1) Every one who

Can you swear at a police? Yes. There is no charge they ...

I seem to remember, from other threads, if the witness doesn't show up the LEO is correct it will get thrown out

also on the report it has the 2 road speeds, it has her as doing (approx) 20 which I find it hard to believe, mine shows 10 over the speed limit as an approx, I didnt quote a speed when asked as I thought I was doing the speed limit, so not sure how LEO put down +10 over the rated speed, maybe the state of the cars, should I worry about this ...

Hi guy's
I got a copy of the police report, the other driver got charged with HTA 145-1 (blocking an intersection)
I would have thought the driver would have been charged with careless or similar as well, because she caused the accident
although there was no witness who stayed ?

doesn't look like 145-1 is a serious charge,

maybe dashcam footage ...

****UPDATE***
I got a result yesterday.
Insurance company had a reply from the other party they are not contesting my version of events.
I.e. I'm "NOT" at fault. so that's a big sigh of relief.
Value for wife's car was actually reasonable. MY insurance company in the past has always been good in that respect,
Her car was rusted and actually would ...

Hey Bend,
txs for the reply,
as I'm an old hand here, I guess I should expected the response :)

I guess I'm pretty stressed out at the moment.

I just want to confirm a couple more questions

1> as wife told me and this other person, they asked if I had received a "charge sheet" a yellow form that relates to who is charged at an accident. this may ...

hey guy's another question

1> I was told that if the other party is charged, that there is a yellow charge sheet given one or both drivers, I only recieved a "motor vehicle collision info exc. card"
I've been told this means that the other party was not charged, due to no witness's or conflicting stories, this could have a bearing on the insuramce ...

Hey guy's,

=====update========


AFAIK I didn't bang my head but I guess, the 1st hour or so, so from accident to taking me to the ER room wasn't good.
But once in the ER, things started to clear up, and the last hour I guess, I was talking and understanding fine, so pretty much back to normal.
I do remember the accident and things, as I said I ...

Just a quick question,
I just had an accident and trying to see what determination would be on insurance.
(I spoke to insurance and they can't give me a determination till tomorrow as the assessor had finished for the day)

(now bear in mind, It was very quick and my recollections are a bit fuzzy)

Scenario is I was driving on a road and at an ...

If your wife was pulled over roadside, she would have been charged with driving while suspended. If there's some sort of odd circumstance that shows she didn't simply ignore her conviction and was unaware of a suspension, they'd likely take that into consideration at your summons date and go from there.

Insurance providers deny ...
