Re: 136km in 100km zone, 401 W, Cornwall, Aircraft Enforceme

The spotter in the aircraft probably works in several different regions, meaning he'd have fewer available dates to attend Court compared to an officer who works strictly in one region.
That was the case when the program was introduced, but now I think each detachment has several observers (spotters). The aircraft flies into the local airport and ...

What is smth? = Smith?

Courts plan there time based on pleas (5min) and trials (30min +). If ...

Re: Whose fault?????

I'm asking because, aside from personal curiosity, the OP mentioned that the extra space was for a bus stop. Some of those, especially in Mississauga and some other areas, are painted with a solid white line with the words "BUS ONLY". I'm guessing this is backed up in the city bylaws..
Oh ok....forgot about the "cente of the universe" stuff ...

Re: Whose fault?????

As for the vehicle that passed the school bus on the right, that is legal since the bus was signalling to turn left.

Can you use lanes designated for specific traffic (bus only, right turn only, bicycle only, etc) in order to pass? Section 150 doesn't really specify how you pass the vehicle in terms of marked lanes.

still a disobey sign ...

Re: City cop stopped me on Federal Highway

With a marked unit all police would stop no matter who patrols that particular road.
If no police on scene it normally is called into police via 911 to the dispatch. The call taker will enter the road and maybe a cross road and it instantly tells what "police service" patrols that particular area. The entry on the computer screen is instantly sent ...

Re: freedom to travel

Like Admin says, you are guaranteed the freedom to travel. As long as you have some mode of transportation available to you, I don't think your rights have been violated. Common law and the Charter's Mobility Rights only allow you to travel freely; they are not a guarantee that all modes of transportation be available to you.
