Fishing Expedition

Does anyone have any info on obtaining user manuals and service records for speed finding devices? This was called a fishing expedition by a prosecutor and I am just wondering if there are certain cases I should read in CanLii, or if anyone knows any webpages that document the reasons defendants are...

Fishing Expedition

What is the case law for requesting speed finding device service records and user manuals? I've been told by Stratford Prosecutor I am not entitled to either of these things.

They love to use the term fishing expedition.

Re: Interesting Case

I always hate paying for transcripts, but you are right that that is the best course of action. Speaking of typewritten notes, the Justice of the Peace scoffed at my request for a typewritten copy of the officers notes. Normally this would just be a ploy to make them do more work, but in this case t...

Re: Interesting Case

Any idea what the prosecutor is seeking? I might call him and ask him to repeat what he said so I can look it up.

The ticket is a $98 ticket. At least $300 in time and gas have been spent in the process so far. What can I ask for that would show the JP that punishment has already been meted out?

Re: Ever wonder why Police don't ticket Left-Lane Hogers?

This is a serious problem. Ever drive down the 401 late at night when it's empty; in the right lane of course, and see someone merge on from the on ramp and immediately move as far left as possible for no reason? Simon I like the idea of the speed limit being raised (hint hint MTO) to pre 1972 level...

Re: Interesting Case

Arrived at court 30 minutes early, checked in with the Prosecutor's office. Sat in court room for 20 minutes before 10am. Points was already sitting in the defendent's chair and saying they were going first. People made jokes that maybe order should go according to seniority (age). Points insisted h...

Re: Interesting Case

Your comments are great Simon, I have seen them around and they are always helpful. I will keep this in mind, although 'the process' does cause undue financial hardship that costs more than the initial cost of the ticket. Feel free to check out a similar thread on a different ticket that I have post...

34km/h Over Limit

Driving with a friend (friend was driving) got tagged by an unmarked Cruiser using Stalker Dual DSR (DS34590), front antenna, while moving at 65km/h. From what I can tell this is radar. Test times are 16:10 and 00:33 with audio doppler. We got tagged at 17:10. I advised my friend to take this case t...

Re: License Plate cover - OPP / Police in General

I got pulled over once for waving to a Speed Trap as a passenger; if it makes you feel any better I'm as Caucasian as can be. This thread is not for discussing our feelings about Police Officers, but I have to say I feel better about them now that I understand what standards there are for hiring pro...

Interesting Case

A friend got a speeding ticket with a set fine of $95. I cannot read the officer's notes so I cannot determine how fast he was allegedly going. The friend requested a trial date, and when recieved a date for trial requested disclosure. The trial date was today (December 6) and no disclosure had been...

I am finding Ticket Combat to be amazingly educational and reminds me of an old fyst (Fight your speeding ticket) site that I cannot find anymore. So glad to have found all of this!

Re: New Member? Come and say Hi and Introduce yourself here!

My name is Matthew and I'm not sure if I am supposed to reply or create a new topic to introduce myself. I am passionate about fighting speeding tickets, have fought every single one of my own, and it seems like I will be fighting them as long as I live in Canada on a too regular basis. My abstract ...
