Re: Speeding ticket + 2 more the same day.

With regard to "applying pressure" to the court, never forget that your tickets are a few out of thousands, and nobody at the court or the police agency is going to be stressed out about your trial.

Just go by the book. Any shenanigans you pull can only serve to hurt you down the road.

Re: Just got slapped with a Careless Driving/Speeding two-fe

Start by pleading not guilty and requesting disclosure. Once you have that come back and post it here
With that information the users of this board can assist you with assessing the merits of the case and what your best options may be.

Re: speed trap (19 km/h over)

Once you have disclosure you have a better idea of what you're looking at. Side note, if the device was on a stand or tripod it was most likely a laser.

Re: Speeding 75KM/H in 50 KM/H zone

The details of the set up etc. Are probably written once then referred to for each ticket issued during that particular enforcement initiative.

Re: Help to Decipher Notes - 109 in 80

I believe the ST and ET lines in the officer's notes refer to testing of the RADAR unit.

Re: Failing to stop for a School Bus

Did you provide your ID to the bus driver? If not, Any ticket you receive would be as the owner of the vehicle and would not have demerit points.

Re: Appeal Red light conviction

Did you cross examine the officer? If not why not? If you failed to do so, that is not grounds for an appeal.

Re: Speeding 75KM/H in 50 KM/H zone

To address some of your comments:
-You said " I don't know if I was speeding". In other words, you cannot say that you were NOT speeding. Your entire defense then that you THINK you weren't speeding based on some back of the napkin calculations based on google maps and your eyeballing of dashcam footage vs. the police speed measuring device (which ...

Re: Appeal Red light conviction

Did you submit a disclosure request to the crown or just an FOI request to the RCMP?

Re: Service Plate Use

For what purpose are you moving it? That information can assist in answering the question. Is the trailer otherwise plated by the owner?

Re: Parking ticket not properly served?

I doubt this argument will work. The way you were served is not explicitly permitted in the regulation, it is permitted to be sent by regular mail, which is ultimately not a heck of a lot different from how you received it. It might be a defense if you never received it, but you clearly did and they will know that based on the fact that you applied ...

What were you charged with? Did you receive a summons to court? Part I offences don't usually involve a crown brief.

Re: Officer lied on disclosure

And honestly what's to say that you didn't make a mistake typing out what the officer said to you?

What are the discrepancies by the way? Are they material to your defense?

Once you have your suspension sorted out you will also have to visit service Ontario to pay a reinstatement fee.
