Re: Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violat

BTW was your friend going Northbound on Brimley Rd? Streetview: http://goo.gl/zq6uOZ IMO there would be no jurisdiction issue there, it's all City of Toronto for at least a 2km radius. Lets just say that 50 km/hr sign was not there, the Highway Traffic Act would default the speed limit to 50 km/hr anyway. http://www.torontopolice.on.ca/divisions/map.php North of the 401, it's all 43 division. Similar Brimley/401 story on this board: http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic5589.html Dashcam: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4qYsmB46oG3N3ZNRjNzWFF1R1k/edit Yup, that's the same spot Just to...

Re: Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violat

I found out today that they moved the speed limit sign down the road about 300 meters.

What happens now? Is the case dismissed? :mrgreen:

Is the charge for violating the speed limit sign in the old position still valid? Does one continue the good fight?

If the speed limit sign in the old position is invalid, how does one go about the charge? Does one tell the justice before the trial begins about the new sign position? Or wait until it's your turn to mount a defence?

Thanks for all the help!

Re: Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violat

Thanks for the replies, I thought I was on to something :oops:

Another question: does an officer serving under 11 Division have authority to set up a speed trap in 12 Division's neighbourhood boundaries?

Is the officer still within his jurisdiction if he's operating a speed trap outside of his 11 Division neighbourhood boundaries, but still within the city?

Thanks!

Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violation?

According to TicketCombat.com: "The radar or laser (lidar) gun has to be on the same vector as your direction of travel." http://www.ticketcombat.com/step3/lookaround.php Can anyone expand on this, case law or some other reference would be great. My friend was coming down hill on a bridge on Brimley and 401. The bridge bends down a bit and isn't perfectly straight. We think the police officer was standing at the foot of the bridge with the laser gun. We think he shot through his tinted car windows too. Because the bridge bends down and is not a perfect vector, it doesn't matter where...

Justice adjourned; trial is 14 month from offence date. 11b?

Hi all,

My offence occurred early April of 2013. The trial date was scheduled for late February 2014.

Because there wasn't enough to time for my case, I only had the chance to plea not guilty and the Justice adjourned the trial to mid-late June 2014, which is more than 14 months from my offence date (early April).

Should I submit a 11b? What case law should I cite for my Form 4F? Do I need a transcript from the trial on February 2014? What other documents do I need to submit?

Thanks! The guys on the forums have been very helpful.
