Re: Just "beat" my Careless Driving charge thanks to you guy

Congrats! One thing I don't understand is, you said "I kept on driving still under insurance for a few months until my policy expired and was not renewed because my case was still pending. (The rate would have been around $9.000 to $12.000 a year)" If you case is still pending and you are ...

Re: After accident, the police gave me a Careless Driving ti

Thanks for your responses. A couple things: - After the accident, the other driver said to me that he stopped fast because of the sun and sorta apologized. - I told the cop that I slowed down as soon as the sun impaired my vision and I slammed on brakes as soon as I saw the car but it was too late ...

Re: How long does it typically go to trial in Toronto?

The officer is a witness. They have to testify to whom the wrote the ticket to any why. Even when the officer didn't witness the actual fact that resulted in the ticket?

witness in careless driving ticket

Had a minor accident, cop showed up and gave me careless driving ticket. I chose option 3, will fight the ticket and request disclosure when I receive the notice of trial.

Interpreter

For the ones that requested interpreter in court...at which point do you know if the interpreter is present and where is he/she in the room?
