booo booo ... I liked the trail, seemed we were going at a nice even pace(maybe even a flow)....and BAM...someone tried to pass on a thread :shock: gotcha :wink: :D

I will speak specific to the 2 lanes that I work on, are quite heavy and we have poor drivers (passing groups of cars, cutting in at last moment) and collisions with injuries. A ...

Can I ask -- have you ever modified a ticket after issuing it to the driver? Or, more importantly, have you ever been told that it was OK to do so?

Can you ask? You just did :wink:

Right from when I first started, my coach told me to never alter the face once the copy was given to the driver.

If there is an error, it is better to make a ...

. If the officer was behaving as you described, then you could have called the other 3 drivers as character witnesses against the officer.........I wonder how backed up the court really was?

Yes, your Worship, would like to add 3 witnesses, who also at different times caught up to and passed a police car :shock: :shock:


Yes, your Worship a ...

. Based upon most 'T' intersections the wider road most often has 'right of way'. This intersection is definitely not the norm and based upon my measurements is improperly signed/signalled.

In most "T" the road going straight has the right of way, with the stop sign of course for the driver coming to a "T". Unless of course it is an all way stop ...

Specifically, multi-lane approaches with cars parked on right (as Stavebank Road S. ) should not be "all-way stops" .

I have never driven there, but just zoomed with google maps....it is single lane traffic, with parking on the side. So I just don't buy the sign is too far too the right thing.

A prudent driver in an unfamiliar area would be ...

The error was in the date of the ticket, and the officer corrected the original before filing with the court (after giving an unchanged copy to the driver). The ticket was quashed and the ...

Marquisse,

Thank you for well written post!

I apologize, but do not know what a "Critical Mass" is ?

Unless, a intersection is controlled by a police officer (physically standing there directing traffic) all rules of the road apply.

I see this type of thing in funeral processions, drivers blowing lights, stop signs that are not controlled by police. These drivers will be at fault in a ...

Maybe if you set it on cruise then crawled into the trunk.

Might have forgot, driving a motor vehicle, while not in the drivers seat??

But the driver jumped out....now rolling on the pavement back there.....didn't want the speeding ticket from that dem dar arrowplane.

Don't think it is missing...rather not put in. Think this forum is for basic Provincial Offences involving vehicles where a person can possibly defend themself.

Criminal Offences should be using lawyers advice.

95% of the time radar is operated thru glass. The other 5% without glass would be on a motorcycle or nice day with a handheld.

Turns have to be made into the closest lane.

ie: turning right (onto a road) the vehicle has to enter the closest lane.

ie: single turn lane for left turn. Road that vehicles turning left onto has 2 lanes (in the direction of the turn). The vehicles turning left must turn into the lane closest to them (nearest to the centre of the road)

...ground unit stops target and identifies the driver.

As long as the vehicle is in constant motion from time of pilot visual contact to point of ground traffic stop. What if the vehicle had stopped in between. Potential for change of driver?

Yeah, and what IF they stopped under the overpass, just prior to the ground units sitting on the "get ...

I would not recommend that either.

I was actually ticket last year for this very offense by an aircraft patrol. A couple things confused me about it one being that it was the 401 and I was keeping pace with the rest of the cars in my lane at approximately 120km/h. There were definetly guys to the left passing at higher speeds (I was in the middle lane). Why would they specifically ...

Carbon-copy of the signature should be good enough.

Yes it is.
We have had discussions at court, in the office, on here and a signature is all that is required, whether carbon or orginal signature.

Two reasonings

- sign notice and give to ...

I certainly would agree with you Proper1.

I have been speaking up thru the channels to get it clarified...will advise when info known.

In these situations, manpower is critical to maintaning a blocked hwy, which of course usually is 1 car to block 2 lanes. Then you need another on the on-ramp....as sure as flies like poop, someone will go off do a uturn and come back on. Obviously not enough manpower on this date.
