Re: licensed in another province at time of suspension

No, not at all. I am not in court for failing to pay fines and having my license suspended. At all. Period.



Correct. You are in court for driving while your licence is suspended

I'm not sure why this is even moving forward to court?


Because it's illegal to drive with a suspended licence despite your reasoning.

Not true. You really ...

Re: licensed in another province at time of suspension

No it doesn't. You should have just paid your fines. You know you got the tickets and you know you didn't pay them so its no one else's fault.

Actually, your reasoning is not sound. It is quite customary for the crown to ask for a certified copy of the suspension letter, and they are doing so in my case.

If they are asking for a certified copy ...

Re: speeding help needed.

Does it really matter? LIDAR doesn't need any form of a mount to be accurate.

Something i can ask about during cross examination, might be able to raise some doubt about accuracy.

Was 65 your actual speed or was it reduced at the scene?

i believe it was reduced at the scene.

We'll have to wait and see what disclosure there is, see for sure ...

Re: speeding help needed.

Just curious but do they ever use monopods or is it always a tripod.
Maybe when the officer waved me over they had the legs folded together but it looked like a monopod to me. This might make a difference when aiming the device, steady tripod versus a shakey monopod.

Thanks.

Re: 116kmh on a 60 - help!

My advice is pay the tickets you were issued and count your blessings. The alternative could have been a stunt driving charge which is far worse than what you got. JMHO.

Husband transferring ownership of vehicle to wife?

Hi,
Anyone know whats involved if someone's wife wants to have the ownership of her vehicle put in the husband's name only? Does tax have to be paid or can it be given as a gift? Is that even necessary?
Thanks!

Re: Ticketed 89km/hr in a 60km/hour zone (reduced)

You want to choose option 3, not 2. Pleading guilty with explanation is still guilty. Option 3 will typically generate a first attendance with the prosecutor at which point you can try and plea for 15 over.

Re: braking distances accepted by courts

Nothing on the internet will help you. Its all hearsay. Now unless you're an expert in the field and have specialized training you can't really testify either. Even still you can say what you want and put forth a good argument but the truth is with the amount of variables involved in vehicle braking inculding but not limited to condition of the ...

Re: The Loud Muffler Backlash Begins...

I hate the turds that put the those fart cans on their compact cars. The four inch exhaust isn't going to make your Pontiac Sunfire any faster. MC's don't bother me too much though.

As long as you don't use them on a highway and they don't interfere with the normal operation of the vehicle you can install them.

Insurance valid when buying a used car?

Hi,
I have a question regarding insurance coverage. Lets say an individual buys a used car from a private seller on a weekend. The new owner puts the plates from his old car which are valid (perfectly legal for 6 days) but doesn't call the insurance company because they are closed. Is the newly purchased car insured since the old car was properly ...
