When ABS is activated it does allow for steering. Non-ABS brakes OR ABS not activated will not allow you to steer.

Now wonder if those that were passed by the fire truck now complain the fire truck went roaring by me, then stopped and no need to drive like that.

Easily see the reason a lot of driver distractions should be removed out of the car.

Some people have no "flippin" clue to move the "flip" out of the way.

it is the proper section....just need to scroll down in the HTA to section 19 which clarifies section 18

Red light
(18 ) Every driver approaching a traffic control signal showing a circular red indication and facing the indication shall stop his or her vehicle and shall not proceed until a green indication is shown

Exception – turn
(19) Despite ...

I'm glad we're uncovering the REAL problem drivers out there; doctors, police officers, fire chiefs, etc., LOL. Turns out I'm in pretty good company, hehe.

2003hrs, Stationary Hwy 416 northbound,
south of 20 (cross road or km marker....I don't know the area, but it is a cross reference on Hwy 416)
observe a pack of vehicles north bound at high rate of speed
several vehicles registered 135-137 (km/hr)
at rear of pack, lane #1, observe ...

This is because the judge ruled that... I'm going to paraphrase... that since the aircraft was timing a car between two fixed points, they could not pinpoint any exact speed at any given point in time. Further that the "average speed" was not sufficient to sustain the charge and therefore that "average speed" was essentially not viable..

I do ...

if any...good news....it is 10 points for an Quebec driver.....Ontario applies it as a conviction "50km/hr over the posted speed limit" which is 6 points. See, just saved you 4 points, probably not what you wanted to hear.

add to your notes > description of driver, include age, facial hair, glasses, type of hat if any, colour shirt, any other occupants, cellphone in hand, blue tooth on ear.....was there a GPS on windshield....all just minor details, but will strengthen the statement.

We are not allowed to give a "copy" of any part of a manual to anyone as it is a copyrighted. We have provided a manual at the court for someone to peruse thru if their so intent.

What about the typed notes. How can I request that after a prosecutor has flat denied me them because he "doesn't ever ask for his officer to type notes"

JP says: "You are not entitled to the radar manual, and based on case laws that I've decided on in the past, you need to do your research, come back on Sep 3"

Thanks TC...been too long a day.....

16yrs and older.....ticket goes to that passenger......

now why is someone 15 and under consuming? That is for sure a CAS call.

Hold on a sec. No seatbelt (passenger) carries 2 demerit points and a warning letter from MTO for G1/G2 drivers. Why was her license suspended? Did you read the letter wrong or does she have other convictions?

Has to be other convictions....G1/G2 are allowed to "collect" 6 points!!

bookm...I would have also charged each passenger for "consuming ...

A licence plate has nothing to do with the safety of the vehicle.

A "10-day permit" and "dealer plates" are temporary, not permanently attached to a vehicle like normal plates. The HTA also specific where temporary permits and plates must be attached. The temporary is also paper and would not last in various weather conditions.

Since the issuance ...

The other drivers insurance company is coming after us for damages because the officer put in report that there was an improper left hand turn and a failure to yield.

Since there was no tickets issued we did not fight it. Is there anyway to fight what the police put in the report?

The report is correct. It was an improper left turn and failed ...

You would need a GM with a condition of M.

I just perused the "Police Services Act" which governs the majority of police in Ontario with no mention of an answer for you.

Each service might have its own policy, I don't know.

Most uniformed members will have their badge and/or name on their uniform somewhere. Aside from that, it would be easier just to get the plate of the cruiser as you ...

It would be a violation of the licence and the driver can not drive any further until the condition has been brought into compliance.

Figured I would look this up....as I have seen a few:

Q.Are there different wheel configurations of motor tricycles?
A motor tricycle may have either have:
one front wheel and two rear wheels, or
two front wheels and one rear wheel, or

qualifications of person to take a photo (courses an/or training)


That's a new angle. Camera is a device in common usage by the general public. Unless it's one of those fancy professional devices with 50 attachments and is the size of a small refrigerator, reading the manual should suffice. (I 'spose the Prosecutor could ask the defendant for ...

The testing procedures for lidar actually ensure the unit is working properly. Tests are more than internal tests.

Unlike any other vehicle, cruiser speedometers are calibrated from purchase date and have this imprinted right on the speedometer.

Anyway, the focus of your defence should be something like what you wrote: "I was approaching a green light and scanned the intersection for any hazards and other vehicles and pedestrians. When I was about two car-lengths from the stop line, the light changed to amber. I was driving at approximately the posted speed limit, which was appropriate ...

Glad we have a prosecutor that is on the ball....makes all photos by defendants inadmissable!! Excellent work!

GTA provincial offences courts accept photos from defendants all the time, they just need the time-date stamp and the person who took the photos to be present and testify. If there's any concern, get the photos printed, go to a ...

In point form ONLY.....maximum of 5, what is your pet peeves of other drivers...
*********************
1 - Fail to Move LEFT
2 - drinking and driving
3 - expired plates
4 - follow too close
5 - no parking zones

Baffling, mind boggling etc...

One of the most dangerous aspects of driving, high probablity of being
"t-boned" and yet people still try to assist those to get out of these offences :shock:

If it the light is red, the driver already blew the yellow/amber portion of the light.

Hope you OR a loved one OR a close friend never gets SMOKED by ...
