thing that comes to mind...
- was the driver already charged with that offence and still refuses to bring a vehicle into compliance and was stopped again?

Hwybear thanks for the input as well -there is no page number either, and on the top it says "enforcement agency notes". Is this the back of the officer's ticket copy or is this the notes from his notebook? Do they keep notes on both?
Ok, then the notes were made on the back of the ticket (the officers copy). I do not keep notes on both. One or ...

kinda like fishing....can never catch em all

i have only seen the tar in all lanes, this is for the vehicle electromagnetics/weight and trigger a red light to turn green. Rather than sit there for hours on end if no other traffic is in the area.

TC...$85 + $5 court costs plus $20 victim surcharge = $110 total

The notes were not typed, it's a copy of his notes from his notebook, handwritten, pointform, with abbreviations. As well, there is no date or time on that page.
There is no date/time on the note pages. Notebooks are blank lines pages, where a time can be put on the left side and each bottom right corner will have a number (notebooks page #'s ...

Looking at it closely, the ambulance was only in the way for a few seconds. It did pull over. The reason it didn't pull over initially was because there was a car on the shoulder. The call that the officer was going to was not a priority. He didn't even get out of his cruiser when he arrived at the call scene.

The car on the shoulder.....was in ...

I can not recall seeing an video prior to this....as the video is edited....that's the problem with clips.....we also don't see the cruiser stopping, letting the EMS pass either....lots of missing stuff to give a full clear picture.

Yes, the police have the authority to pull over the EMS (no lights activated)...can see on the EMS bumper the lights activated and can hear the siren of the cruiser.

But here is a thought...lights, siren activated one is going to a priority call, why stop and delay your response time.....just jot down the licence plate and have a chit chat a ...

RI, that would be for the radar units that are moving. Handheld which TC brings up is another story....again I'll have to go look into the manual.

When we're safely clear of the apron/ramp area, during taxi we turn the radar on and point the nose (radar antenna is in the nose cone) at a distant object or set of buildings. If there is a rainshower in the area, even better; we tilt up the antenna and see if the rain shows up on our Multi-Function Display (MFD). Only takes a couple of seconds ...

Several errors on the accident report - incorrect number of occupants in vehicle and my uncle's speed incorrectly stated as 25 km and the other car's speed incorrectly stated as zero - meaning stopped. Both cars were moving slowly albeit under 5km per hour..

Possibly your uncle and the other driver both gave statements at the time police arrived ...

Just more questions keep poppin' up on this from other posts....so won't "hijack" those threads.

Ok, have to write notes, but if something is not in the notes it "alledgedly" did not happen, although notes are to refresh my memory only. So go the opposite route and write every little tiny tidbit miniscule pin drop of everything that happened at ...

how do you externally test a radar built into a plane? Have Bookm run around the tarmat with a pie plate strapped to his chest and a aluminum foil helmet? Now on a serious note, what would simulate a plane at all different angles around....(i don't know, just askin)

Yeah, maybe their radar was not tested to an independant source such as a tuning fork

I'm not immune from being sued if I screw up and someone gets injured or killed just because I happen to be at work, and I don't think he would be either. Perhaps Ticketcombat could clarify this.

If you mess up, you won't be around to worry about it.

Might be, flying to the Bahamas instead of Thunder Bay does have it's advantages........ :D ...

Yes Sir there is, can you write the AG and the OPP and ask them to stop the jury rigging up in Barrie :roll:

Guess your not following this too closely....this practice has also been done by the Windsor Police, Thunder Bay Police.

And it is not jury rigging at all. An example of that would be putting people on the jury who have all had someone ...

thanks TC.....I did not look at the VPD manual at all, never use that thing...if i'm stationary it is LIDAR....i did read the Genesis II Directional and is a lot different than that.

Oh wait a minute... TC with this little thing you might've opened the door to stand speeding ticket prosecution here on its head:

Nowhere in the manual does the manufacturer state that this self test proves the device is working properly. Read the manual carefully. You will notice they go to great lengths to AVOID making this claim.


Pretty ...

Sec 82

Sec 2 - officers can stop a vehicle and can have the driver move to a safe location for an inspection
Sec 3 - pertains to owners of vehicles having inspections done on the vehicle (OTHER than a safe location indicated by sec 2, ie garage)
Sec 4 - is to get the vehicle repaired
Sec 5 - after vehicle is repaired, officer can request to re ...

What do you do if your following the guys exit comes up?
Would you get off and follow him to his house if it was close?.

I just keep following and yes have followed directly into a persons driveway before, no big deal.

If the police officer had no radar on you, it is impossible for crown to prove the case.

it is not impossible....think outside the box

Btw for the 2 antennas ill take a wild guess at this. The long one is the antenna for the digital receiver which is mounted in car (all cars have this), the small one is this so called analog repeater antenna, and those circular dome looking things are the internet connection for the computer/laptop in the car?

correct.

I do not how or why any ...

delay with the cruiser time (8-10 sec) is short.....I often wait for several minutes.....in that time I have my dispatch check the vehicle, owner to ensure who I am dealing with (ie...did they just do an armed robbery?) Then wait for a safe location to stop.

The govenment deciding to make changing from one road surface condition to another is a ...

noticed that the traffic was stopped. Therefore I merged onto the burloak exit (burlington) early crossing the white line. I did look and made sure it was safe before crossing. .

Trying to get the right interpretation here... Does this mean you went outside of a marked lane and were driving on the paved shoulder prior to the actual marked lane ...

Well bear just so you know i would never really "FLY BY"in that area you patrol.It really depends but your area is bad for "speeding."

Lots of cops, mainly all patrolling 401,

We now are at 8 officers per shift....come September up to 9.
It is nice to have back-up close by. Last week we did the lidar intercept with 1 operator, 5 chase cars ...

That's great. Keeps your record clean and prevents an insurance increase. :)

Hmm... that's tempting fate. Maybe I should get one that says: TICKETME. Actually my current plate is the generic four letters and three numbers format ...
