Re: Can I sue the city for license suspension? Lawyer gurus?

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.

Re: are cops subject to the HTA too?

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?

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

Some Officers occasionally need to be reminded of that.

Re: 51 over, speed measured via aircraft

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)
__________ (divided)
T. ( time)

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.

Re: Issued Summons - court closed!! What to do next?

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.

Re: Whos fault is it?

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 ...

Re: shall I go to trial or make a deal if offered ?

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.

Re: shall I go to trial or make a deal if offered ?

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.
