estimating speed can easily be done at night....have to remember that police do this every single shift (day/night) and that is from day one on the road.
Once you estimate a speed, radar can confirm your observations with a number value.

I obviously don't want you on the stand when I am asking questions))
But it really helps me now.

Again ...

Plead guilty with an explanation is still pleading guilty. What is your permit signed with? Pencil? Usually the cops would let you sign that permit and be done with that.


It wasn't signed at all. Normally they would tell you to sign it at the Ministry, but this time the dealer took care of the paperwork and just gave me the plates and the ...

Failure to sign permit in ink - $110 fine.

I figured pleading not guilty is the same as saying it was signed which is stupid. A friend of mine told me I could plead guilty with explanation and try to get the fine reduced when I come in.

Can anyone comment on this, is this true at all?

You would be correct, how are you going to prove it?


Probably just questioning the officer, if he admits he had his radar on and saw it show 92 then made a u turn and stopped me, than I assume that would be against some instructions they should send me in the disclosure I am willing to request.
If the officer will testify he saw me speeding ...

Are police officers allowed to just drive around with their radar on or there are instructions that an officer must first get a visual estimate and then confirm the speed with a reading? It seems impossible to estimate and then take reading travelling at night in the opposite direction.

Also a quick question, I really want to go through court transcripts for simmilar cases, how can I get access to them? I bet they are not availiable online.

how a radar case was thrown out similar to my cituation, but it was a US court. I think they have moving radars installed on the police cars as there's no way the officer can shoot a laser one while driving, so my ...

Was stoped by an officer going in the other direction allegedly I was going 92 in a 60 zone. Reduced the charge to 75 in a 60, which was nice. Also wrote me 110$ ticket for failing to sign the ownership in ink. Didn't make me sign it though, just gave it back to me (didn't care enough to solve the problem, just wrote the ticket).

The question is ...

What area is it in?
How are you evaluating the speed of the oncoming traffic when travelling in the opposite direction and then have time to shoot him with the radar?
I just wonder how it works, do u just get the oncoming left lane or all the lanes?

...if you yourself just sit on the side of the road watch traffic.....you will see the average vehicles, then all of a sudden....that one there is a lot faster

124 IS AVERAGE and for the left lane it's far below average, I don't believe you can say who goes 110 and who goes 125 just because one goes 40cm/sec faster then the other.

It is almost ...

What about these people who have to travel over 1 hour just to appear in person? Not everyone gets a ticket near their homes.

If I see and target a violator, I will also target others in the area, then return to the target vehicle. This gives me further evidence to support my visualization. (eg... target MV is 124km, passing a T/T at 103, and a pickup in front of the T/T at 111km/hr.....this gives me confirmation of visualization, also further clarifies the speed of ...

Back to my parking ticket))
So on the http://www.toronto.ca/parkingtickets/#poa they I've read the following:

Please be advised that once a court conviction has been recorded against a Parking Infraction Notice, a Notice of Fine and Due Date will be issued to the registered owner with a due date by which to respond. If action is not taken in the ...

Anyway, if you didn't pay enough at the meter then just pay the ticket and next time put an extra 50 cents in. You could request a trial, did you take pictures etc. It's only thirty bucks.

I probably will pay as the place is 100km away from where I live, they work Mon - Fri just like I do, so there's no way I can appear in person to request a ...
