Re: Impaired Info?

Or does some test need to be done before a charge can be laid?
OF course! but "all over the road the odor of booze in the vechicle,breath,a wobbley pop walk!" all lead to the test... (Breathalyzer, lest you refuse, then the blood test, which you cannot refuse)

On that scenario...arrest for impaired driving.

If the person refuses the breath ...

That is pretty vague question....can you be more specific?

I have gotten 2 drunks off the road during the last 2 day shifts....very unusual.

Re: speeding 15 and under

This is just a guess on my part, and I know I'm going to get a reaction for saying it, but my experience has been that if the cop reduces the ticket at the traffic stop, they are less likely to show up in court if you fight it. They are doing themselves a favour knowing you are more likely to pay a lower fine and they don't have to show up in ...

Re: Jeep Wrangler with Windshield Down?

ticketcombat..copy that.

On all these traffic issues, most police services are far from the HTA as they are humping so many calls for barking dogs, domestics etc...

People should contact the actual traffic services section of their respective service.

On that note....I do not see a problem with a vehicles without a windshield, no ...

From a every day person side of things....that is just "beeping" rude / ignorant / inconsiderate etc parking in a handicap spot.

next worse is parking in a fire route!

Would hate for these people to walk an extra 30 ft to the door :roll:

Re: another errors on ticket question

To my understanding tickets are tracked via a drivers licence number. Someone else will have this added to their licence? Any others on this?

Re: If I dont get disclosure

hwybear, why can't you guys (or the gov't legislate it) so that when you pull a car over, they MUST EXIT the highway? Why must we keep putting officers lives in peril when the simple solution is to stop pulling cars over on the shoulder? In a built up area, highway exits are frequent, so there is no reason why this cannot be done.
That is great ...

Re: If I dont get disclosure

I experience the same threat every time I pass an oncoming car in the opposite lane. The accumulative speed of 160kmp+ would be the crash speed if that guy were to veer just a few feet in my direction.
Not as bad as a vehicle vs person (walking up for traffic stops).

Re: If I dont get disclosure


I had an experience last week that could maybe shed some light on this problem. After 6 straight hours behind the wheel through the middle of the night, I suddenly got very tired just 1/2 hour from home. I thought I could manage the rest of the trip, but found myself wandering a little in my lane. I chose to stop and power-nap for 5 minutes or so ...

Re: If I dont get disclosure

Another example of a driver not paying attention while they are driving. Try looking past the front of the hood and might see the flashing lights ahead of you.

Rather than a ticket, maybe every driver that doesn't move over should be put in an office chair and have a vehicle go past them within 3 feet. Add to the experience, just touch on the ...

Re: Errors and Omissions

It's all subjective. What may seem like "rush hour" or conjestion to one person, may not be the case for another. However, the traffic flow was up there. I mean the lights separated alot of it, but it was none the less a busy time.

Exactly my point....someone travelling at the same time every day or even a couple times, IMO can not be able to ...
