Re: Disobey Sign 182(2) at St. Paul's Square, Toronto

There is a thread on this same spot here somewhere.
Not sure how it turned out.?
Agreed it makes no sense.

But after looking at it closely the anytime sat/sun seems clear to me.

Re: Which driver's abstract does insurance companies check?

For a new customer the 3 year check. If a customer lied they can just cancel in the case of a claim.
I believe it is more then just paying to get the extended 5 year check.

Re: Can I drive parents car and renew sticker/medical suspen

You can renew the sticker's just take in the form and pay.(or on-line)
They will keep the insurance on it as long as it is paid up.
Anyone can own a car suspended or not.

As to your driving it casually not likely an issue. You could add your name to the insurance if you wanted to use the car a lot.

You can buy/sell cars with no license.

Re: Refusal to pay "Penalty" "Fine" Debt.

My wife had a judgement from Alberta in the 90's. She was unable to get a license however she could buy cars. I paid the insurance on them and drove one of them.
I would get pulled over about once a month to check if it was her driving. She did not get any letters or anything about the bill. One day she was driving and

Re: My responsibility?

The way I see it is that if the policy is valid and an issue occurred it would be paid.

Re: Passenger failing to wear seat belt - dispute?

The laws have to cover all vehicles. From "buggies to now".
If your vehicle came with a seat belt it should be used.

A animal ate my seat belt defense may be a bit weak.

In some older cars there only lap belts in the center.

Usually this kind of ticket comes out some kind of foolishness from a passenger.

Re: Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violat

I found out today that they moved the speed limit sign down the road about 300 meters.

What happens now? Is the case dismissed? :mrgreen:

Is the charge for violating the speed limit sign in the old position still valid? Does one continue the good fight?

If the speed limit sign in the old position is invalid, how does one go about the charge ...

Re: Using Laser downhill and through tinted windows a violat

The spot where the ticket is alleged is important. The court may not have jurisdiction if "say" you were driving from vaughn to toronto.
Maybe the boundary comes into effect?

If they screw up that stuff it is almost auto dismissed.

You do need to point it out before they can amend it though.

Object before they read the charge.

Best of luck ...

Re: careless driving charge

I can't really see a defense for speeding on a wet road. Maybe try for just the 20 over speeding ticket.
Get discloser and see if the cop wrote down any of what you said here to him/her.
It really sucks when you total a friends car.

Luck with it. I hope you take another driving lesson or two before trying that again.
