. The study in Japan following their stud ban indicates a marked increase in accidents. .

Could this be the fault of complacency? where drivers rely more on the equipment or lack thereof....and don't readjust their driving habits?

I see this every snow storm......the invincible drivers that refuse to slow down for changing road conditions ...

I'd be doing this as a conscientious objector because all the literature I've read (including this one: http://www.engr.uaa.alaska.edu/research/upload/StuddedTiresInAlaska.pdf )indicates that the research on which Ontario relied when it instituted the ban (before I was born) is no longer valid with today's much less aggressive studs.

from that ...

$110 ticket for driving with studs....plus MV could be towed to a prevent the repetition of the offence

What is 140knots true air speed? Was told it was Cesna 206 turbo at 178knots. But I don't know the difference in that jargon.

The Supreme Court of Canada ruled in 1987 that cops can stop you for any reason and check documents. However Bear is incorrect when he states there is nothing illegal in them searching your car for any reason. .

Maybe it is time to read, before some knee-jerk response

Here is what I wrote...I'll even put the word you seemed to skip in big ...

This is just more random checking, which will go against our Canadian Charter of Rights.

David Eby, the executive cirector of the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, expressed worry about automatic testing from police.

"Canadians generally have a feeling that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a good thing, that being free from arbitrary ...

This evidence was required for this particular case, but not required for all cases of this nature

If the law has an effect such as it has in Australia or Ireland......I'm all for it.

yes and no, the fail to move left is $490 and about 90% go to trial. I do not know if it is b/c the fine is so high or the 3 points? I rarely have a seatbelt at $110 2 points go to trial.

Maybe it will have the same fine that is already available for using a TV.. $110 and no points

correct have to be stolen/lost first

Squishy wrote: If it was road legal to begin with (limited to 32 km/h and whatever else the MTO requires) then it does not qualify as a motor vehicle, excluding it from Criminal Code impaired/over 80 charges as well as the HTA administrative suspension. Careless driving charges can apply.

HTA and Criminal Code definitions for a motor vehicle are different

that is what we do. We photo copy our notes and eliminate other investigations and incidents out.

All there needs to be is a test PRIOR and AFTER the offence.

anything with stolen with a serial number can go on CPIC....even your old cassette walkman

Play the racism card? (The officer was white)

You have got to be kidding me, right? Try standing at the roadside and identifying the ethnic background of a driver from a distance of 200-400 metres. I'd be willing to bet that you can't.

Exactly! With the varying window tints, angle of windows, vehicle interior colour, lighting, it is even hard ...

1) the offence could be put back up to original speed
2) Do not call the officer, it is now in the hands of the prosecutor/courts
3) that is the lowest of all lows
4) direction of cruiser does not matter

rather than create yet another useless database to justify someone's existence (create a job - rather than doing what they are supposed to), it would be way easier for anyone that has a bicycle to record the serial number down. If the bike is stolen/lost provide the police with the Make, Model, Serial number, speed, size of frame, colour. This info ...

I know my work shirts are "made in china"

The truck should not have been towed.
I would have towed the vehicle to prevent the continuation of the offence . It is still uninsured off the owners property. Now the person can ask the vehicle go back to their residence.

His insurance will-not cover the other truck.Unless he called his agent and set it up.(usually they will give you 3-5 days ...

Entrapment is the act of a law enforcement agent inducing a person to commit an offense which would be illegal and the person would otherwise have been unlikely to commit.........so unless the officer stopped by your friends home, told him to toss plates on the vehicle and drive down the road without insurance, it is not entrapment.

Yes, the ...

that is what I would guess.....and/or 2 readings of 151km/hr (one at 1100m and the 2nd at 227m)

The kid must dismount and walk the bike through the crosswalk, which is probably why the officer did not charge you at the time. .

that would not be the reason.

Would be interviews of all witnesses. Would also wait to see the outcome of the injuries to the kid. This could be waiting for the child to be released from hospital and speaking to him ...

secondly, ive spoken to many other truckers whom have had problems at weigh stations in the United States whose licenses are expired and require to do a written test -although Ontario has extended there license.

these drivers should go to this website and print off the info...
