Hi,

I was charged with careless driving for a one-vehicle accident, and would like to know how to go about pleading not guilty. I was driving on a rural road at night in an 80 kmh zone. I was driving up a hill. At the top of the hill is a 90 degree turn sign (no stop sign, no kmh posted). I hit the brakes too late, and because the road goes ...

Hi,
I got this ticket last year in toronto and received court date recently.

Basically I parket on a street where there are marked spots for car parking but they were all faded with only the white edges showing. I assumed I was in the correct spot when I got out. I never noticed the fire hydrant in the bushes.

When I returned I saw the ticket ...

question for a friend of mine.....says she got a 3 day suspension for giving a A on a roadside. Thing is she wasnt driving. She is a g2 driver and the car was parked in a parking lot, she just ran out to get something and turned the car on. Can a 3 day be issued if you arent driving on a highway - (I've read for impaired it doesnt matter, but 3 ...

Wrong section Viper. She was charged under HTA 78.1(1) Not 78(1).
The only exceptions to 78.1(1) are the following:
Exceptions
(4) Subsection (1) does not apply to,
(a) the driver of an ambulance, fire department vehicle or police department vehicle;
(b) any other prescribed person or class of persons;
(c) a person holding or using a device ...

Received a ticket for texting at a red light. Any suggestions on how to defend it? Court date tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

This may be an extreme instance in your case but


C/P
Exceptions

(2) Subsection (1) does not apply in respect of the display screen of,

(a) a global positioning system navigation device while being used to provide ...

like I said

"This method only works for low $ fines and is not for the faint of heart."

You can object if your name is not called

They shoot fish in a barrel all around there both ways east and west.
So the cop is gonna show up.

select option 3

You can either take the bargain for 14 over or:

What I would do.(since the dollar amount is so low)
Show up on the day ordered.(If markham road pay at least 4 hours of parking)
A bit early if you can.
Make sure your name is on the ...

It's 11:00PM on June summer night 2010. I made a left turned from 50km/h zone (Road A) to 60 km/h (Road B) safely on green light. As soon as I made the turn I see that the next traffic lights are red so I rolled off the throttle and cruised in right lane. Light turned green and I see two cars in both lanes pulling away from me. I maintain my ...

I read this topic about an expired license plate:
http://www.ontariohighwaytrafficact.com/topic3100.html

A forum member in that topic (named Stanton) said "If it's the cost of the fine that's your concern, request a first attendance meeting with the Crown Prosecutor. Show them proof that you renewed your plate right away and they'll probably ...

So I got a ticket from an officer last week for operate motor vehicle without insurance. I was driving a car from our lot (a used car dealership company), my boss said that the car is insured under the fleet policy and that I am fine. The problem was that our dealer plate was not on the car at the time (it was left back at the shop), so when I got ...

In Mississauga today I saw a peel car with a sign in window "mechanics test"
He was doing speed tests.(real fast spurts to about 90) limit there 80
I was going to pull him over as he had a tail-light out. (but I was busy)

I was in durham going 60K
2 other cars were near me one going faster.
A chev cop cruiser burst out and was in front so fast I ...

Not likely anything there.

I have at least 10 tickets that I asked for trial on.(Toronto Markham road court)
I have received no response on any of them.

It is now over 4 years for that bunch.

Do these just disappear after so long?

Thanks for the help.

As to your original Q?
"if any-one knows different (please answer)"

1RST What kind of cop gave you the ticket?

2nd
I just found that the (traffic safety police) can give you a ticket for almost anything.(parking too).
3RD
Those points on cvor are really add to insurance cost.

It was the spell correct that spelled it that way!!! I originally spelled it the other way.
Victoria park near there has more holes in it then eglinton near laird.

They turn as usual into their lane but stop just after the turn in the hope you will rear end them.

You also have to watch for accident "staggers".
Some of these idiots will turn then stop dead just as they pass the markings.

I almost hit 2 off them last week.

If you plead guilty they will be happy to give you time to pay.
Good for reduced fine as well.
Explain your hardship and ask for a time/frame that you can meet.
I.E: $33.00 per month till paid.

You must follow then plan though or you will be in trouble.

Officer evidence. You request after you get a court date.

No harm at all.

You should request disclosier though.

During this time the officer that had charged me was talking to his other police friends and trying to get me intimidate me, but since I ignored it, he then decided to approached me and take more direct route.

When I went for a court appearance a few years ago I had an officer like that. Before the trial he kept asking me questions when the ...

Did you win?
How did you get so many new dates?

I tried to copy the "event" today.
I was going 40 kph and slowed to 25kph.
My foot was over the brake to slow down.
(no reaction time involved.)
It took me less then 1 small car length to stop.(just over 2 meters.)
I would think anyone nearing a red light would have their foot on the brake already.

It would be an "abrupt" stop but it is easy to do ...

I stand corrected.

It is, most likely' only the accused that can do that.

I cannot find the case law (2 hours of looking).

I was hit while driving. It was the other guy's fault and he was charged with careless driving.

I have just received a "summons to witness". The summons threatens all sorts of dire consequences if I don't show up to court.

The problem is that I don't want to show up to court. Besides being difficult for me, the other driver is an acquaintance ...

You were most likely trying to pass the person.
The person was most likely trying to get to the right so you could pass.
As far as I know the leader in the turn lane can choose what-ever lane they want.
You are in the wrong just pick option 3 and hope.

2 - there is no cross road req'd for a non-intersection offence....and unless the road name requires a direction to distinquish it from the other end of a city (ie: David Street South), does not matter if a direction is missing......then would get into my gps says this, the map says that, my car says this direction, true north is here, well it is ...

I was going home one evening when at an intersection the driver in front of me,"johnny" was driving really slow and didn't move when the advanced signal had changed to green. In order to avoid a back log of traffic, I moved into the right lane immediately after turning left in order to allow more cars through on the advanced light. Then i was ...

Hello all, I'm new to the forum and I hae been browsing around to seek some advice (not the legal sort of course, we'll call it tactical) on a ticket I recieved today. Today I was charged under s144(9) for failing to observe a sign to not turn right on to old forest hill rd (7am-7pm). The officer was down the street and had an obvoius view of my ...
