hwbear is right the onus is on the driver.(to have every document)
You said that the card was in a hard to get to place.
Did they only give you so much time?
My thought is that you should have as much time as you need to find the card?

Let me rephrase in point form.

Approaching Red Light around 3:35PM

Noticed unusual heavy traffic in the area near the light

Cars/Trucks making left turns from right lane, almost got into an accident

Notice an officer about 25 metres to the right waving cars over to the side of the road, with a police car on the shoulder
there were about 10-15 ...

Merry Christmas hwbear I agree get where you are going safe.

you don't say what city?
However most have an exception for delivery vehicles.


I believe it's Timmins.

The problem is that he wasn't charged under a bylaw, but the HTA. Because of that whatever exemptions the City may have wouldn't apply.

Then it looks like the cop has nothing better to do.

Attend court on the date they specify.(I wouldn't ...

However most have an exception for delivery vehicles.
In Toronto the owner of the company must register his signature with the parking ticket place.
You then get him to write a letter with date/time saying you were delivering/picking up.
Along with the original of the waybilll/bill of lading/work order.
Food bill should ...

seems like a joke post? ( 9A.M. to 7A.M.)
Either funny or dumb.

I would be interested to know the outcome..keep us updated. ;)

They have changed the signs to allow buses a straight through access.(It might save them 4-5 minutes)

Today I stopped fully and looked every way (up the ramp/pedestrians/late turning south-bound cars etc.)

I turn the corner and have to jam my brakes. There was what looked like a ...

I am glad you posted that pic diehard.
Just recently they have added "buses excepted" to the bottoms. Also at Brock and Westney roads.
I checked all three today and sure enough "Buses Excepted"

I think this will result in a major accident.Regulars who use these ramps will be OK (I always take a good look before
proceeding) but the last vehicle I ...

I filled out all the forms at go-transit on-line site then got 404 error.
I will call next just to see what they say.

Certainly not good, but even professional drivers have "moments". I'd be curious if the driver just wasn't familiar with the route, or just decided to take a chance.

As for fault determination, I think someone turning could have a possible defence, especially if the bus driver was charged with disobey sign by the police.

He knew what he was ...

401 east exit at Salem road.(Ajax)

I posted a long time ago about cars going straight through to the on ramp east bound.
After that, OPP would sit there once in a while and nab cars going straight through.
Today I was North on Salem to enter 401 east.
A "Go Bus" goes right through as well as hammering the pedal.(I could hear the noise).
I really ...

This morning on my way to work I made a right hand turn that is prohibited between certain hours. I was aware that the turn was not allowed but did it anyways as I was going to be late to work. The police were down the street pulling people over and ticketing for this. This specific street has many people cutting across it each morning and ...

An OPP on this site said their cars stop/or quit (limit at 160.) (I know better)
You must have had to slow down for him to catch you?
I had a similar bike and out side of a race-car nothing else is getting close.

If his car cannot do that speed how did he catch up to you?

Persue any mistakes with jurisdiction.
Post disclosure I might be able to ...

Under the HTA, a cyclist does have to identify themselves and is subject to arrest if they refuse to do so.
Section 218

Sure but you can use any name you like. No need for I.D.
unless I am mistaken.

What about stopping you while you're walking down the sidewalk.

You did absolutely wrong, but he stops you and asks for ID.

can you politely refuse by asking the officer the following two questions?

- officer, am I being detained?
- If not, may I resume walking?

I don't believe you need to show i.d. when walking around in Canada.
I don't ...

They do as they please.

The last time I was stopped????

I was parked doing a crossword puzzle. I looked up and there was a cop with his lights flashing behind me.
I just ignored him and did as I was doing.
Eventually he came to the car and asked me for info.
To me that was funny.

A time before that my car broke down out near Tweed.
I was on the ...

Not sure if it is only me having probs seeing posts but I think you should maintain the server so we all can enjoy.

The problem with incorrect (time/place/etc errors) is once you are arraigned they can be amended.
You have to get in your objection first.
In a case like this "maybe" and only "maybe" if you had proof that "the officer was not on duty at the time"
and proof that "you were somewhere else at the time" you might be able to object and show the
court ...

Thanks for all of your updates on this subject.I will be fighting this whole issue in court in Welland August 23rd.I am currently collecting data,photographs,comments etc. on all aspects of the E-bike travesty.One year ago (July 30th) a Welland Tribune article showcased these machines from a safety perspective,having ridden various makes and ...

The city of Toronto released some guidelines for cancelling parking tickets. I think they might apply to your case (delivery truck driver on delivery). I don't have the link, but if you google it you might get an answer there. I'm not 100% sure, but give it a shot...

In most cities Toronto included, there is a ten minute leeway.

Passenger is "liquor other then home."
If your are not drinking maybe liquor readily available.

Not sure about prices , just don't do it.

This is exactly why when driving, you were taught to stay to the right of the road. That way, when there's an emergency or an emergency vehicle passing, you're not obstructed by or obstructing others.

That is why I asked the question: They passed by me on the right shoulder at a very high rate of speed.
?read from start?

My first idea was to ...

Did you recover the $10.00? and/or /The cd's?
It is most likely covered under comprehensive.

Deductible might be waived since a criminal offense caused it.

Unless you admitted to using the car /no care of vehicle charges stick.

You won't be convicted to anything you did not admit to.

Short and simple, going the usual 115-120 in the first lane 2:30am and an unmarked SUV tailgating heavily with the lights blinding me from every mirror....
so i sped up to get around traffic in the 2nd lane to let him pass cause i obviously thought nothing of it, i hit not even 135, pass and as soon as i do
i get pulled over...talk about a trap ...

Maybe go back to the stop sign where you stopped. Get out and see if you can see the spot where the trap was.
You will need disclosure in any case, if you want to argue a case like this.

Welcome to the forum
You mention sec. 53.1.
It is not really much help for us to understand what happened to you.
Possibly if you described the incident we could offer ideas.

Maybe describe what happened etc.

An Insurance company uses your history to base your charge.

If you start buying at 19 or 23 it is the same start.:ie like new!

If you don't want to pay through the nose "later" get apartment "insurance".

Or added to a good driver,s car.

In a nutshell you only get to be a nine star driver with them if you have paid for 9 or more years.

Cheers ...

I just said what happened in my first post.
As to why your car won,t top 150 kph it is in the chip on your car cpu.(some OPP do have cars with HP chip).
My question was ""what is my best response?""

If it was a 10:33 then why would they be staging at that spot?

I appreciate your response Hwybear

Simon is correct.

My thoughts:

Your insurance record starts from when you start paying for it, not later.(you will get a bit of a break for the years licensed but "minor").
What you need to do is:
Find a friend who is willing to let you be added to their policy as an occasional driver.
Get them to add you to the policy and pay the difference ...
