I believe they send you at least one notice with the fine if not two. On that it clearly states if you do not pay your licence will be suspended. Not getting it because you had moved and failed to update your address is not an excuse as you are required to notify the MTO of any change of address.

Making you move to a safer spot is quite easily to articulate. So if he made you call a cab and you have to pay for that, would you think one would complain about him / her not having a heart ...

My 2 cents

On the back of your ticket, it states that you have 15 days to decide what you want to do. If you do not respond within 15 days, you are deemed not to dispute.

How did you file it with court?

What tickets did he get? Was it just the Open Alcohol or did he get another one Young Drive BAC Above Zero?.

Because this isn't a police state where police can do / ask anything they want.

Some Officers occasionally need to be reminded of that.

Then you might get that unwated attention....

Its called the stop watch method. You calculate the time it takes to travel a known distance, and then that figure is punched into a calculation.

The speed obtained is the average speed over that time.

The formla is

S (speed). = D (distance)

Yes to both. The officer on the ground is charging the person based on the person in the planes information. Both would be required to attend court.

It is only post poning the inevitable. They have upto 6 months to serve you unless its a no insurance charge then it is 3 years.

Call and arrange a meet get this done with. If you go into hiding to avoid service I doubt the crown would be willing to make too many deals with you.

Radar can be used in various modes, moving same direction, moving opposing, stationary .

Short answer yes he can get you coming from other direction.

Police typically can't lay Highway Traffic Act charges for accidents that happened on private property. Regardless, insurance fault rules still apply. Typically the driver who struck the other vehicle from behind is 100% at fault.

Here's a link to fault determination rules on the Insurance Bureau website: http://www.ibc.ca/en/car_insurance ...

deductible has nothing to do with the outcome of the HTA charge, so it is very unlikely

But it comes down to the insurance which doesn't always see it from a reasonable persons POV..

well that way you are also being transparent and fair as is expected from the crown.

For the other sections they dont use, they dont use, but at least they are there if needed.

For sure print the entire thing. Make 3 copis on for you to refer to one for crown and one for JP. I would high light and put tabs on where the parts you want them to look at.

Its not a BS charge as there has been many officers that have lost their lives as a result of this.

Stanton, 9 out of 10 times, it doesn't get raised back up to the original fine. If it goes to trial and a conviction is entered they will add the court costs which puts it higher than the set fine / total payable for the offence if it wouldn't go to trial. But really what do you have to lose, not a whole lot.

@Jason, the R108 in the code box means ...

And frankly when drunk people start giving attitude it usually ends bad. If you have nothing to hide or worry about why cause a stink.

First Attendance is definitely your best start.

Questions:

20 over caries 3 demerit points
The court house in belleville which is a 3hour drive from me do i get reimbursed for the drive?
You do not get reimbursed for the drive
What are the consequences of taking it to court?

were you making a right hand turn? and what was the speed that it showed you were going?

Go for first attendance meeting and go from there

Has up to 6 month to lay the charge by way of summons, or 30 days by Part I (ticket)

I have heard of this mentioned in court on an unrelated trail. The 14 day grace period if you have an existing policy with the company it covers vehicles you purchase.

I have never been able to locate any documentation about this.

If the light was obstructed by the truck, how about the one to the left of it, and I'm sure there is one on the right hand side of the intersection .

Two years from date of conviction.

I have personally sat through court in Ottawa when someone tried to argue this exact point. Mind you that the guy just read something he printed off the Internet. I can't remember which section the prosecutor pulled out or quoted but he quickly shut this down. The JP that was sitting was also aware of this tactic and wouldn't buy it .

Just a ...

Yes you can represent her but unless you were presen when this occurred you will not be able to provide testimony.

The fact that the licence plate is wrong is not a fatal flaw that would warrant the charge to be thrown out.

If you request disclosure and you get the calibration dates which you most likely will, it would be hard to argue that point.

If the officer didn't note the Calibration date, all they would need to do is subpoena the officer that did that calibration.

I would suggest first attendence and try to get the charged changed to drive motor vehicle in ...

I am not sure this is completely correct, as it does come up on the driver's abstract. Further to that it is regarded as an Alcohol related suspension, so its quite possible that it will.

You're correct in that all suspensions appear on your driving abstract, but that's more for police & MTO use. The Financial Services Commission of Ontario ...
