Re: Need help with a traffic ticket

Scan and post the officers notes (blank out any personal details). The officers notes are what he is going to testify. If we can read his notes then we can tell you if everything they need to convict you is in there or not.

And here is some info on self-representation:

Re: Speeding 29 over limit

Your request for disclosure gets sent to the Prosecutor at the Prosecutors office. It does not get sent to the police and does not get sent to the clerk of the court.

First you plead NOT GUILTY and request a trial with the officer present.

Then you wait until you receive your Notice of Trial with your Trial date. Once you get this, then you send ...

Re: Video Showing Other Vehicles Doing SameThing As I Was!!

Other vehicles doing the same thing you did will not help you in the slightest and is completely irrelevent to your charge. If the video shows you not stopping, then you have pretty much 0 chance of beating it.

The officers notes stating you were going 15 km/h is also irrelevent. Maybe you were only going 5 or maybe you were going 55, but the ...

Did your father turn and stay to the right side of the lane leaving enough room on the left for the person making the left turn?

Seek out the crown means talk to the prosecutor. When you check in at the court room on your summons date, tell them you would like to meet with the prosecutor before everything starts.

Did the officer see the accident? If so, then only the officer needs to show up. If the officer did not see the accident then somebody who did see it (usually the other driver) needs to be there as well.

Re: Questions Regarding Right Turns

Yes, I think (90% sure) that there is a law that says you can NOT turn right on a red light when they have advance green from opposite direction.

What is the exact charge (wording and section number) he was charged with?

If you take it all the way to trial to fight it, somebody who witnessed the accident (usually the other driver) must show up to testify. The officer has to be there as well because they issued the ticket. So there is 99% chance the officer will be there but only a 50/50 ...

Re: Questions Regarding Right Turns

You have right of way only in far left lane when making a left turn.

You have right of way only in far right lane when making a right turn.

So if two vehicles approach intersection from opposite directions, both with green lights, then one can turn left and one can turn right at the same time (assuming there are two or more lanes to turn into ...

Re: Questions Regarding Right Turns

Pretty sure it is actually illegal to turn right on a red when the opposite direction has an advanced green. I could be wrong, but I think that came up on another thread here and there specifically is an HTA section for that.

Tickets like this one are Provincial Offences and are NOT Criminal Offences so no they do affect your ability to travel.

Re: Is a person riding a bicycle a pedestrian?

Section 140 is for crossovers only. There are no crossovers at a four way stop as those are crosswalks.

So your daughter was charged with the wrong charge, which means if you take it trial, you will beat it easily. The issue as to whether being on bikes is a pedestrian or not is irrelevent here because it is simply the wrong charge.
