Ontario Highway Traffic Act

All good points, but the initial post in this thread mentioned a person in plain clothes, and said he flashed a "badge" that had the word "Constable" on it. That's what makes me wonder if the initial poster didn't meet someone who is actually in another line of work, and prompted me to wonder just how we do know if somebody in plain clothes ...

The "warrant card" is the piece of ID that confirms the officer. The card has the officers name, police service and rank.

Many different occupations have "badges" (fire, EMS, MTO, some security guards, CBSA, MNR, MOF, MOE, etc).

This is why in the assault police cases from criminal courts, arguements of officer identity was an issue. It was ...

- Uneven hill makes no difference.

- no such thing as "laser radar"

- the officer would be an "operator" not an expert

- 32 over fine amount is about $232 (guessing)

Pending what type of vehicle was pulling the trailer. Black lettered licence plates will fall into this.....

Application of Part
4. This Part applies to commercial motor vehicles for which each of the gross vehicle weight, registered gross weight, manufacturers gross vehicle weight rating and gross combination weight rating is 4,500 kilograms or ...

.....also remember you have the right to ask a peace officer (on duty or not) for 3 pieces of identification to verify his claim of who he says he is... If he cant provide ....ignore him.

Now that part is BS....there is not 3 pieces of ID. There is only 1 piece of ID that would identify an officer.

There are cases (assault police) that have ...

:? The full subsection reads: "No person shall use highbeam headlamps that produce alternating flashes of white light on any vehicle other than a vehicle referred to in subsection (1). R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 169 (2)."

Vehicles referred to in (1) are "a public utility emergency vehicle while responding to an emergency and by an emergency vehicle ...

Squishy wrote: Otherwise, simply stating "No person shall use highbeam headlamps that produce flashes of white light" seems to be sufficient, without specifying "alternating".

that offence has to be when "lights are required"

The word of "ONTARIO" missing and or blocked is obstruction. There are other provinces and states that have plates that are white background and blue letters.

Rusted plates I generally issue a report in notice to go get new plates. It's funny, most often it is with older drivers....not wanting to spend $20 on new plates, yet have the plates ...

Proper loading
111 (2) No person shall operate or permit to be operated upon a highway a motor vehicle that carries a load or draws a vehicle that carries a load unless the load is loaded, bound, secured, contained or covered so that no portion of the load may become dislodged or fall, leak, spill or blow from the vehicle
