Re: Tireburst-Careless driving ticket

While it's possible to maintain control of a vehicle with a blown tire, it's an infrequent and sudden event .

The OP said it was a left rear blow out, very easy to control.
Although sudden, I have had many blow outs at varied of speeds (town, highway and priority response). Speaking of which, I had right rear blow out 8 days ago on a skinny ...

Re: Do I Have chance of successful 11b? HTA 136 (1)(a)

Police services don't receive any money from tickets....all goes to the municipality where the offence is issue. Municipality then can use the money as they see fit.

Cash grab would be something you can not avoid paying for (gasoline, taxes, etc..) Traffic offences can easily be avoided by following the laws that are in place, therefore if one ...

You cannot be driving 136km/h and have any reasonable defense.

Incorrect. It is called "defence of necessity." If you or someone in the vehicle has a life-threatening emergency, that is a valid reason for speeding. It is a rare occurrence, but if the defendant is truthful, it is valid nonetheless. And defence of necessity is accepted by the ...

Does the "Valid with photo ID only" sticker make any difference in this case? I'm not sure if it can be argued that the sticker voids the plastic so that it is no longer a valid driver's licence - since the sticker is so easily torn off.
that is used when the person is waiting for a new photo licence to arrive in mail. Once you received your new ...

The most obvious reason is safety.

You hear trucks using their Jake brakes and always look to see what is around.
Same with bikes.

A rice burner will most likely be gone before you hit,it, but a harley is slower.
The noise is for safety.
