I'm not sure what to make of the first few replies. I do live in the jurisdiction where the ticket was issued, and have decided to fight it in court. My court date is in 3 weeks. You should definitely send a second request referencing the first. I shall do so, and will include my concern about prepa...

Re-send request for disclosure?

Should I ask for disclosure a second time if I didn't receive it? I sent a registered letter asking for disclosure 6 weeks ago and didn't receive anything yet. I know they received it, they signed for it. I have a photo of the letter along with the envelope at the Canada post desk just before I seal...

I strongly recommend you read this case, print and paste it to your forehead and waive it about inappropriately at family gatherings until you know it inside and out. :lol: Some interesting reading there. Will definitely wave it about inappropriately. As for the FOI, I don't think it's worthwhile. ...

But the good news is that they think that if you know about it you will question the officer about it which is a huge mistake: You: Was the gun calibrated properly? Cop: Yes. You: Oops! Sorry, do you mean it's a mistake for the officer to say that the gun was calibrated because they did not reveal ...

P_Joe, I would pursue the fatal flaw on the ticket argument. You can even highlight it in your disclosure request under a section called "Explanation and Clarification of the Charge": Please indicate how the "Total Payable" on my Notice of Offence is calculated, including a brea...

Hwybear: Well, the judgment was upheld upon appeal, so it stands.. Never said it did not stand....just does not make sense I cannot disagree. It doesn't make sense, but neither does my ticket, in my opinion. Here is a quick summary. I was leaving a shopping centre driveway turning right from a stop...

Hwybear: Well, the judgment was upheld upon appeal, so it stands. Tcombat: My ticket states exactly that I allegedly did commit the offence of: "Speeding 89 km/h in a posted 60 km/h community safety zone". I certainly cannot plead guilty to this charge, because the community safety zone is...

Any rules for speed trap locations?

Are there any rules whatsoever regarding where the cop can stop and hide to catch speeders? For example, can they be on private property (e.g. sitting in some driveway)? Can they face the wrong way on the road? etc.

Speeding in Community Safety Zone

I got charged with speeding in a community safety zone. The community safety zone signs are unenforceable because they are in English only (see R. v. Myers: http://www.yourbestdefence.com/illegal_street_signs_case.html) and I'm in a designated bilingual area. My question is, do I still get charged f...
