Re: Disclosure - City of Toronto Police ICCS Video Evidence

Thanks for the input. Even if there is a 1% chance that the "infraction" was captured on tape, it still leaves video evidence of the encounter [regardless of how "complete" it is]. My understanding is that the Crown has the responsibility to disclose this evidence,
If there is evidence of the actual offence, I would agree, but no evidence of the ...

Re: Disclosure - City of Toronto Police ICCS Video Evidence

The case law you mention is regarding a continous recording video system that overwrites itself every 72hrs. That system is completely different than in cruiser video, so therefore...
Reading what you posted it would be "rare" as in maybe 1% chance or less that the offence will be on video. Reason I would say that is that the video is "activated ...

to be on safe side, still recommend going to a scale (gravel pit or grain elevator etc..) and get empty trailer weighed, then put tractor on and weigh unit again.

Re: Failure to slow for an emergency vehicle

. There were simply cars in both the fast lane an d the shoulder lane and my daughter decided to switch into the slower lane because the car in front of her was going below the speed limit. She had hardly gotten into the shoulder lane when she came upon the officer.
wow...the other cars in "fast lane" slowed down as they had seen the officer ...

By the photo, doesnt appear the cruiser even has damage on the rear, so wasnt going that fast. Maybe 5-10km/hr, which does not seem unreasonable.

Re: G2 Drive BAC Above Zero

I was unaware at the time that I was supposed to have a BAC of zero, as the MTO doesn't send mail out when they make changes to the "law". Apparently this law came into effect on August 1st, 2010 along with the Novice Driver Escalating Sanctions

I don't know any way you can avoid the suspension, it's mandated by law and not at the discretion of ...

Re: Disqualify Officer's Notes

on several occassions, I have only remembered the date and told the court my evidence is based solely on my notes, my only independant recollection was I worked on that date, my notes reflect that, and make notes shortly thereafter the incident. Never been an issue in court.

Re: no plate light, should i fight it?

The "charging" document before the court is the original ticket.
The "notice of trial" is just that, notifying you of a trial. Simply whomever typed in the "notice of trial" forgot the "1" in "19" and the computer defaulted to the other wording.

Depends what it looks like.....blue preprinted with hand writing on white, I would say that should be original that is filed with court.

but just got thinking, some places have computer tickets, so white version could be actually "your copy".

Maybe stop into a local paralegal office and ...
