Does French services act apply to York Region?

OK, I just checked. You can't use the French defense in York.

LOL, nice reach. I wish I had thought of that one!

Such is case always.

Your girlfriend is not a witness because she was in the car with you. Your passenger never counts as a witness (usually, I think).

I don't think the officer has to supply you with any notes. Disclosure can simply be a copy of the ticket from what I've read. Maybe someone else can tell me wrong.

I'm going to say yes. They could sue for malicious prosecution. I think the Sergeant himself would probably be on the hook for some of it.

I'm not sure about the officer ever paying a dime. Ontario labour law would come into effect. I think it says something like... an employee cannot be charged (monetary, not criminal) for a mistake they made ...

Are police officers with a criminal record allowed to keep their job in Ontario?

Why did police lay charges in the first place? Just because this woman tells them a story, they believe her word, end of story?

When my mother was hit, the police at the collision center would not pursue the matter because they said that it was her word of events against his (the other driver that fled the scene)

Interesting story. I wonder how she got the police to call you, let along charge you. I lent my car to my mother a few years ago. Some guy rear ended her in a parking lot and took off.

I have a computer mount in my van but I always remove the laptop before I start the car and place it behind my seat. I don't want to take the risk of having an accident and then be charged with distracted driving just because an officer noticed the laptop and decided to make an assumption that I was at fault since I was probably messing about with ...

Must surrender a valid insurance card upon demand. And that is when asked to surrender, not after the officer goes back to cruiser and returns to the car.


The officer that wrote me up came back from his cruiser with tickets in hand, then asked me if I had found my insurance before he handed me the tickets. So he actually was providing me a ...

Electrochromatic. They used to be widely available for purchase about 10 years ago. Most of the companies selling them have since mysteriously gone out of business.

They could be leeching off an open AP. There's no need to keep the engine running to run a computer, but people are dumb.

You said that the prosecutor helped you speak to a lawyer. Did she introduce you to this lawyer?
