Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Agree with Admin and RI.

Pay the amount owing. Fail to do so could result in a collection agency being asigned to collect the funds, which of course then probably flags your credit rating negatively.

Then use proper channels to get reimbursed: LSUC or civil court

Maybe someone knows (haven't been involved with this area in many years) but ...

This province is getting scary insane. Where do cops get the idea that they should search innocent citizens' automobiles? The freaking nerve! .

Also the nerve is painting all police with the same brush. As like any profession everywhere there are those that taint the 99.9% that do the job properly. I have never searched without a lawful reason ...

However, the blood alcohol could still be on the rise and a person could go from a warn to a fail, they will then be arrested.

think it is referring to the times....had this same issue in trial, brought up by defense
- ticket was wrote say at 3:10pm
- defendant had gas receipt at 3:09pm
- was 4km to location stopped
- argued ticket time vs time to travel that distance
countered with my current watch time (in court) was 2min faster than court clock

JP then stated her watch ...

I took a look at Google streetview and there is indeed a sign on the North West corner of the intersection, but it was like Where's Waldo trying to see it, especially at the time when I was just trying to figure out where I was and not get run over. It's not in the usual sort of place you'd look for signs pertaining to a turn you're about to make ...

HTA 611 is what is required for vehicle safeties, so I will just throw this out there...so either the officer would lay an "unsafe vehicle" charge, seize the plates, tow the vehicle OR choose to issue a muffler offence.

If it the muffler falls into 611 10(f) it is concerning that a "professional" garage is allowing a vehicle to leave that would ...

HTA OReg 611, Schedule 1,
(10) (f) no exhaust system shall be shortened or modified from original equipment so as to fail to direct the exhaust beyond the underbody of the occupant compartment or luggage compartment, and in no case shall the distance between the outlet and periphery of the underbody, past which it directs the exhaust, exceed 15 ...

Discrepancies - I was not the only car but the first of 3. I had someone tailgating so I moved over to middle lane but then was the only one pulled over.
Lidar is target specific, meaning only one target, one reading at a time, however is pinpoint accurate. The lidar beam is 90cm (3ft) wide at the distance given.

He did not show me the radar ...

thread moved from "general" to insurance area.

Might want to check out the insurance links page

Thanks Biron,

I think my knowledge of the HTA and Regs comes from doing strictly traffic for over a decade. When I find a situation I look it up. I try to play "defense-in-my-head" for every offence to shut down all the avenues of "escape" if you will. Plus I learn from this site of all the questions that officers could possibly be asked, thus I ...

Great ideas....plus we jointly re-write the HTA to make sense

- In addition to a "pay tickets" website, create a "fight tickets" website so paperwork only needs to be filed on-line

Only point I disagree with is the above and it is not the ease of challenging the offence. There has to be some penalty, say $250-500 added to the fine for a "no ...

Thoughts:
He really went on about how he lowered it and how fast I was going. I really didn't think I was going 93, I suppose everyone says that tho. It almost felt like he was stretching the truth a little bit though. I feel they lower it so people with just pay and not argue.
Of course he went on about lowering it. He wants you to pay it so he ...

No doubt that some people within the Crown Prosecutor's office (and possibly the Ministry of the Attorney General) had a cow when the JP ruled in mdevo's favour and word got out. Also, I'd be willing to bet a few people who fight traffic tickets for a living may be quite interested in this particular outcome.

It could make burden of proof for ...
