Re: 144 in 100 - Hwy 403 "turnaround" radar?

2 ways o clear the code. 1 is to hit the info reset button, which clears the general info off the screen, but not clear the error code. 2nd is to go into diagnostics mode and ERASE the code history. If the problem has been resolved, ie: parts repaired, the code will erase. If the problem is still there, the code will come back.

Now i dont know how ...

Closed road - changed to "disobey road sign"

This is a ticket i got a while ago. Was stopped for the 2nd time on my way home (12 minutes after the first stop). I was dropping someone off and was directed to turn down a road that had a "road closed" sign but the road was open. Not sure if it said local traffic only or not, but where i was dropping my passenger was at the end of that street ...

Re: plaincloths officer stopped me for not checking

"I pulled you over because your signal was flashing too fast and I wanted to make sure you didn't have a blown signal bulb" would be sufficient, no? Few extra words = happy JP?

I mean to say, officers don't need a BS excuse, why make it up?

hmm thinking back... before my speeding ticket, and before my niagara incedent... the 3 times i was ...

Re: 144 in 100 - Hwy 403 "turnaround" radar?

I wont try to justify the way i drive by making excuses. But i need to point out just for arguments sake:

"This is my 12th ticket in 3 months. It is my first speeding ticket."

i should have said "This is the first time i have ever been puled over for speeding".

Its always for tint or to see if i have umm i donno, drugs in the car i guess?

144 in 100 - Hwy 403 "turnaround" radar?

ticket says 140 in 100. Paralegal has the ticket so i cant scan it right now. He said the ticket looked ok though. What im questioning is the legality of the officer doing radar parked in a turnaround section between the east - and west-bound lanes of the 403 west of Brantford? Is it illegal to park there? I understand it is legal to turn around ...
