Looking around saves way more lives than loud pipes.
I almost fell off my chair...someone actually said that! I agree 100%.
My reasoning (I am an MC rider) is the transmission of the noise is backwards. You do not get the main noise affect until the MC is very close and past the location. Just like a fighter jet, nice and quiet as it approaches ...

I have heard that also, but have not seen anything in B&W. I heard it was going to be in October and apparently a 320 page document. This info I have was from a local paralegal, who said literally said "I don't have time to read all that BS, as it apparently it is a rights issue and yet driving clearing written is a priviledge".

time will tell!

I would think that IF you are suggesting what charge was more appropriate, and attempting to bamboozle a person with your attempt on legal BS, you would at least look up things and know that there is no such charge as "Impede Traffic" in the HTA.

132. (1) No motor vehicle shall be driven on a highway at such a slow rate of speed as to impede or ...

As long as the JP understands the Cosine Effect don't think there is a problem. You might want to get a transcript from the court to confirm what you heard, review and then decide. IF there is an error, then you can appeal.

If your appeal is successful there will be another trial, and then it'll pretty much be a repeat trial and see if that JP ...

Reflections....well I do have a business accounting diploma....but still forgot most....so relied on internet calculators and websites for the info.

I understand your perspective of Caspers comments a lot better than the original post. I do not think it would be so much the young officers, a lot are very good (especially the guy I'm training right ...

Not necessarily will 3 charges just be "dropped".

You can always speak to the prosecutor yourself before your trial (call court and see if it can be done ahead of time). Try to resolve the situation to your satisfaction without having to attempt an adjournment. Saves you time from returning for another court date and possibly saves you money ...

I still don't agree with that,
that is what is so great, we can all have our opinion.
it should be up to the judge
Ontario Court of Justice does NOT uses judges!

David Millers proposal to close down shooting ranges in Toronto. He said that guns are very dangerous and people should not have them in their possesion even as a hobby.
Yep, that ...

But slip the back-end out a little bit (due to a posi rear-end behind a 400ci engine) and some hardcore cops just might use the written definition of "stunt" to ruin your day.:
Simple common sense.....leave a small squawk, don't even think anything will be done......squeal, smoke billowing OR squeall all the way through the complete turn....then ...

Verifying his source of time. I am going to request CPIC/MTO queries to verify the time he ran my plate. If he did it over the radio, going to see if I can get timestamps. He did this well before 7 AM - how could he have my DL# if the offence occured after 7AM?
I have had time challenged in court before, guy brings in a gas receipt where he ...

Jurisdictions around the world are busy banning cellphones in cars but Ontario is looking into broader regulation to encompass all electronic distractions, the premier says.

e roads are that bad....we usually have more calls of vehicles in the ditch than we can keep up with,

On that note from myself.....wish there was a ticket to give for "fail to adjust driving habits in inclement weather/ road conditions - drive off road"

What a waste of resources for almost every vehicle in the that goes into the ditch...police ...

IMHO...#2....to get that one would have to be of course turning, spin the tires enough that I can hear the squeal and I would like to see some smoke.....or carry the squeal completely through the turn without letting off of the accelerator.

Winter time....I have driven front wheel, rear wheel drive vehicles (car, SUV, pickups and vans). One with ...

. After 30 days have passed from the offense date, the officer can not write you a new ticket. He would have to proceed under the rules of a part III summons, which means a Justice of the Peace would have to allow the new charge. The last time I was in court (helping a family member) the JP stopped the proceedings when she discovered the ticket ...

HTA OREG 455/07
Definition of Stunt: includes any activity where one or more persons engage in any of the following driving behaviours:
1. Driving a motor vehicle in a manner that indicates an intention to lift some or all of its tires from the surface of the highway, including driving a motorcycle with only one wheel in contact with the ground ...

standby...going to find the wording/ section for everyone....

. He said if we pay the tickets in a short time everything will be good, but if we take it to court he will be asking the crown to charge us with Racing. He did also mention that he only had me clocked at 88km/h and had to catch up to us to get a reading on his radar gun. Any advice on what he can really do, or on how to continue with this.

I do ...

Stop being SASSY, Bear

Sorry, I'll go back to the honey jar and get some sweetness! That is actually very mild as compared to how I talk to co-workers when they say that.

What do you mean by "signal lane"
- single lane (one way traffic)
- two lane (one single lane each direction) or
- signal lane (meant for motorists to turn)

I certainly believe it is the most dangerous. But why is it everytime I drive somewhere the kids are on the streets....rather than their backyards or on a actual playground. All these times, do I rarely see an adult near.

A neighbour had a adult over and the both parents kids were playing, kid goes down ...

You two :D

Reflections: I have already confirmed that the sign of "slow traffic keep right" is not enforceable in itself in another forum. And unfortunately for people that ask....someone was issued an offence for unnecessary slow driving that was somewhere on Hwy 69 about 8yrs ago...and the JP threw it out....stating the maximum speed is 90km/hr ...

And every Tom, Dick and Harry will take his words for gospel as well.... :roll:

We build highways that are capable of these speeds. We have cars that are capable of these speeds. There is considerable doubt we have drivers that are capable of these speeds, but until or unless you choose to do something about that

This is old news. There is way more to this then just what was in the paper and how it came about. I am not of liberty to speak about it!

No problem.....we actually have several members who don't use the equipment on a regular basis saying things like that.....it is either one OR the other (radar or laser) (laser is also called LIDAR) and those are actually acronyms anyway!

And you wonder why these forums exist .

Yes Dammit....I want to pay a higher fine I deserve it

Ontario has a reciprical agreement with Quebec, meaning fines there come here, fines here go there..

I'm guessing now, but since you are suspended in Quebec, due to fines. You will have to clear up the fines, then start at the beginner Ontario licence level at G1 since your licence is not valid.

OR

Maybe there was not an agreement with the ...

I have driven a porsche and Ferrarri on the 401 as well as local roads....in both, I thought I was back on the farm driving a tractor, it was so rough, yet so low to the ground like being on a toboggan......think it was due to the poor roads we have. Owing them is more of a "status" symbol...see me thing! As you can't enjoy the ride.

Witnesses say the intersection has a history for accidents - including a fatality recently. Rumble strips were added 2 years ago, neighbours have been petitioning for amber lights or 4 way stop.
If this intersection is so bad, then surely your son should be well aware of this, if not, there is some fall back to poor driving instruction.

In the ...

If it were me, I'd still defend myself on the belief that the wrong charge was laid. Perhaps Impede Traffic would have been more appropriate.
