Speaking of hospitals... I've seen Toronto and Peel constables give seriously injured people tickets in the emergency rooms. While those people might have violated the law, they already have to deal with:
1) A totalled vehicle
2) Insurance premium increases
3) Heavy bodily injuries with all the fixin's (surgeries, recovery, physio...)
If that ...

Not quite a youngster....37.... was driving in 1987....10yrs after MPH was gone! I don't know what "F is either for temperature...

Imperial makes no sense at all. No simple multiples of 10. When temp is 0C that is the point of water freezing and above and below tha point rise accodingly....then you get "F" where the freezing is a little way up ...

Typical example: Doing 115 goin' up 400. Pulled over (OPP in this case as I was near the north end).. The constable takes my docs, they check out, comes back with the ticket basically saying "I caught you you doing 122, but I cut you a break and dropped it down to 115."

So that discretion by the officer saved you about $70 and 3 demerit points ...

There is certainly some bone head ramps designed from way back.....one near London....think it is to hwy 4.....travelling EB, have to go merge into the exit ramp, go under the bridge and curl around to go north...that part makes sense.......but if you are SB on Hwy 4, and want to go east, you merge back around and use the EB exiting ramp as your ...

No, but I got here as fast as I can

Pretty sure it has not been mentioned as boating stuff is not governed by the HTA.

Boating is governed by the Criminal Code and a few boating acts. I am not a marine operator, so I have no clue what the acts are or what they are called.

I will have to ask one of the marine operators.

This is a fairly common scenario for me...
I'm doing Xkm/h. The constable tells me that I was doing X+5 to 10 but because he's such a nice guy, he'll drop the ticket down to X.
Guess what would happen if I were lidared/paced doing 140-145 on the 407........
sorry, I do not understand that at all, please refresh and try again, thanx

By the way ...

just keep riding your MC and you have nothing to worry about, except if you have the mohawk attachment

Simple - Unsafe Lane change

Combination of many factors produces this congestion:
- length of ramp
- merging vehicles not coming onto thru hwy at speed of 100km/hr
- others on the thru highway following too close
- others on the thru highway exceeding the speed limit (knowlingly that the merging vehicles can never get up to that speed to safely ...

I do not know of any law that prevents someone from driving with a cast.

This would be up to a doctor to decide. Doctors have the ability to send MTO documentation that a driver is unable to drive due to a condition of some sort. Then the MTO would suspend the drivers licence until reinstated by the doctor.

Think more legal issue would be if ...

At least it was genuine truth about the family member, they were in fact at a hospital. That certainly paints a bad picture about the police, not only there, but everywhere that was published.

HOWEVER....again biased reporting!!! The article keeps on going about the officer did this and that........finally way down at the bottom....there is a one ...

Agree with ya squishy...

ON the front and back of the vehicle, not 1/3 way back from the front laying on a dash, visor etc..

If I recall correctly the temp/10 day permit was required by law to be clearly affixed to the windshield of the motor vehicle!

2) 172 can be used as an intimidation tool to force vehicle operators not to dispute less serious charges.

So what your saying is not to use discretion in regards to any of the 172 sections. Give everyone the full hammer instead of a lessor offence which also applies.
(IE...stop someone for 150km, lower it to 149km so they don't lose their ...

thanks for the update....but I had to go back and read what it was even about....keep us posted, it will be interesting to see what the JP of the day thinks

Probably because one helmet is manufactured with the vents in. The mohawks things are either glued or bolted on after market thus wrecking the dexterity of the helmet with holes and/or glue thus voids the DOT/CSA certification. Removing foam liner also voids the helmet.

Bear, could you please clarify the outdistancing part? Would that include a legitimate pass?

2 vehicles side by side and the other pulls away is outdistancing.....this is actually under the "racing" definition area, so there would be two vehicles involved.

Don't think this would apply to passing on a highway, but could a passing vehicle be ...

happened again yesterday...but today...so far so good....well at least until I hit the "submit" button

So if there's an accident with enough of a head impact to deform the lining, I wouldn't be able to ride the bike home (assuming both the bike and I don't sustain any serious injuries) because the helmet would technically be "damaged"?

I wouldn't ride a bike with a wrecked helmet, unless it was at low speeds and at the side of the road ...

"Fail to wear proper helmet on motorcycle"

Plus there won't be the HTA up there.....more like the "Blackfly Feeding Act"

Admin....now the forum is larger, I can also help out if need be.

I do admin another site that has restricted access and for the most part I stop in here every day.

Once you get the squirrels to run in the wheel and generate enough power, your posts will still be 2 time zones and 3 days behind

I don't wear glasses and don't know what a contact looks like....hmmm maybe I need glasses to see the contacts?

The charge would be:

I would think so, but have to do some digging to find out who to contact.

Other option is Crime Stoppers... 1-800-222- TIPS
