Re: Letter informing vehicle owner that car was seen speedin

According to the letter they were auxiliary officers. The driver recalls seeing them from way down the road and says they were standing on the corner but did not see a car or a measurement device. According to her, she always drives at or about the limit.

Re: Letter informing vehicle owner that car was seen speedin

I came across a letter mailed to a family member from the local police station stating that a car displaying plates registered to them was seen going 7 kph over the limit. It states that they should make sure that whoever is driving the car, does so more carefully and that no other action is necessary.

I am thinking this is a great way to make ...

Re: Disobey Lane light

from my understanding;

option 2 is a one on one with the prosecutor, who will look over your file and make you an offer (if one is available)
you can accept ot or not. if not, you can then go to trial

Should I ask for trial?

If I happen to go to trial, any chance of JP changing the charge to 'Red Light - failed to stop' with increase fine and ...

Re: Careless charge

I drive an old style 4 cyl mustang with well over 300,000 km on it. I left work in a hurry and tires squealed (surprising me). I remembered I left something at work. Went around the block and realized an officer was following me. I panicked and misjudged the corner, slamming on my brakes. When I slam on my brakes the car pulls hard which I went ...

Re: Failure to Stop at Stop Sign - 2nd offence

Stranger things have happened.

at the end of the day, you have 2 options
dont challange it, get a conviction.
challange it, and you always have a chance of something, errors, not turning up,

you still can get a conviction, but at least if you challange it, there is a slim chance, if you don't theres no chance.

depends if you have the time ...

Re: careless driving charge

Certainly don't plead guilty to the charge as it stands. At the very least request a first attendance meeting and see what type of plea deal is offered.

I'm not sure what your chances of fighting the actual careless charge would be. While you're not expected to drive with perfection, your initial mistake followed by a serious over reaction would ...

Re: First Ticket - 130km/h on 401 near Cobourg

Hi,

I am a fully licensed driver and got a speeding ticket on the 401 going 130km/h (unfortunately I got caught just at that moment). The OPP officer didn't give me a reduction on the spot.

The fine is $220.00 and from what I've read, 4 demerit points. I've also called my insurance company and my insurance will go up 5% (thankfully, my entire ...

Re: fail to obey sign

The sign designates that right lane (L3) for right turns.

If he interfered with traffic, maybe an amended charge could be HTA S.170 (12)?

(L3) at St Clair and Keele going east starts a few meters before the intersection. I changed lanes way back before the exit of the warehouse of home depot, At no time I parked my car or interfered with traffic ...
