Interesting part for cases to come. Here is part of a decision out of a Sudbury.

At the onset of trial, the defendant's agent requested the proceedings be stayed as per the recent decision of R. v. Raham 2009 ONCJ 403 (ONT.C.J), where section 3.7 of Ontario Regulation 455/07 was deemed unconstitutional. The proscutions position was ...

HTA section
166. (1) Where a person in charge of a vehicle or on a bicycle or on horseback or leading a horse on a highway overtakes a street car or a car of an electric railway, operated in or near the centre of the roadway, which is stationary for the purpose of taking on or discharging passengers, he or she shall not pass the car or approach ...

people that would complain are the ones that get caught....b/c "I would not have done that IF I seen a marked police car"

old news...that was about April 2009. It was a test type of thing for a few weeks and apparently has been shelved.

- 2nd officer probably only took a statement from the other driver and made no other notes. You will probably get the statement from the other person, not the officers notes as nothing in them.

- sticker in the wrong place does not invalidate the plate

our court has a mandatory sign in sheet for defendants/paralegals/witnesses and officers. This helps speed our court up, not wasting time calling on persons on the docket who are no where to be found.

i have only seen a prosecutor accept a suggestion/plea to another offence where there is evidence for in the situation.

(ie: speeding to disobey sign, which is the PSL)
(ie: careless to fail to drive in a marked lane)
etc..

yes you can be arrested for 172 offences, but it is not a PON, but rather a summons.

The 3 Driving under suspensions would probably be be 3 seperate reasons you are suspended.
(ie demerit points, unpaid fines, court ordered suspension etc)

due diligence = EMS

Is this a question, why didn't he use other officer as a witness?

I would be 2nd officer. I would stand on the fog line and face traffic. Anyone NOT moving over, I would use my right arm and point directly at the approaching car and then point out to the right (to the LEFT for approaching vehicles ...

If the lane to the left is open, still must move LEFT regardless of speed, likewise, still have to SLOW down if you have moved to the left,

yes, if the plates are not being used for their designated intended purpose

Court is in the area that it happened.

Once again, simply put, my only question regarding this topic is this: does the officer have, in fact, the legal authority to remove and confiscate my car's historic vehicle plates, when these plates are registered to the vehicle and are up to date with a valid plate sticker?

No.

yes, if the plates are not being used for their designated ...
