hwybear wrote:other than a fail to surrender charge, open liquor is very easy offence to prove in court. Located a open 341ml bottle of Coors Light. I observed 1cm depth of beer in bottle.

No demerit points for a LLA offence.

Do you have to provide the open liquor(evidence?)

I never tried but to me it seems easy to beat.

Was the restaurant in the hills?

If you hit a parked vehicle it is your fault.
His collision coverage will pay for his damage /no-fault/

My guess is he just straightened out whatever was bent no worries.

Hey Guys I was hoping you can help me out here. I was charged with having open alcohol in my car. The only problem is that I wasn't even drinking or anything like that. I had empty bottles on the passenger side floor and I had my cousin sitting on the seat, and one bottle had a little bit left in it, maybe 1/4 inside. The cop still gave me a ...

Tomorrow is the date, to set a date. I'm sitting in front of the forms for XCopper, who promise me for $678 to get it reduced to 3 Demerits, though I think I can talk to the Crown Attorney and probably get that done on my own. XCopper does what many places do, they say that they prioritize: Waived/0 Demerits/2 Demerits/3 Demerits/Trial, which ...

Ok I will try again, I did not reach the esso. Just as you past the foresters building you turn right onto eglington now going east. On the east bound eglington after you past don mills there is a right turn lane which heads back into the foresters building area with all those new townhouses. I did not turn into that lane as I know it will just ...

(a) a person whom he finds committing an indictable offence

How do we know what that is?

Every city In Ontario I have entered has a basic street rule sign on the edge. Usually no parking 2AM-7AM and 50 kph unless stated other-wise.

Speeding is absolute liable but if there is a hidden sign I think you could beat the ticket.

I see lots of stop signs covered with foliage maybe some-one who got a ticket like that needs to sue the city ...

I was charged with an improper right turn, this happened at 10am on a sat. The first lane to turn into is a lane for people will be who are turning into a complex. Next lane over is the bus lane, I went straight to the bus lane. The officer says I should have first gone into the closest lane which would be for people getting ready to exit off ...

What has to be viewed here is your conduct. Was it reasonable? Would a reasonable and prudent person done the same?

Absolutely...I saw a whole group of cars swerve off the road yesterday, go over a sidewalk, across a lawn to miss a squirrel :roll:

Now, to be a little more serious, I have spoken to insurance about this and if it is a "swerve to ...

I was in the right hand lane turning right on to eglington heading east. There is four lanes going east, I went into the bus lane knowing the first lane was a right turn exit lane. Ticket infractrion was a improper right turn, highway traffic act section 141(2). Also the form sent to me telling me when my court date is has my last name spelled ...

I've never heard of this, where is this written?

Alberta school bus rules at that link. Ontario wants $20.00 for same.

I don't have ontario rules but other provinces have reduced speeds for school buses.

It is not a good idea.

Like OPS said the DA will get a adjournment and you will get no deals.

So you agree with OPS, but can you elaborate on why getting an adjournment is necessarily bad? As I pointed out, a reschedule could be used towards an 11b argument, no? And once again, I ask, will the DA always get an adjournment?

Also if you live in ...

Costs about $20.00 for handbook.

But it seems all cars must stop while the lights are on unless divided HWY.

I haven't read it either but it has to use some common sense?

As to the speed I have seen it written on the buses.

Cheers

After the DA is done asking questions you get a turn.

eg
At what time did the officer check to make sure the sign was there?
Did they check to see if it was still there at the time of the ticket?
Sounds like they can prove the pole was there.(no offense)

hwybear lead you to the answer.
DA gets to rebut it.

Is it in your discloser?(if not not ...

I thought something like that might happen, but is it always the case? Perhaps the JP might think it would be a waste of valuable time/resources to reschedule. And then there's always the argument for the right to a speedy trial if the reschedule is months away. If everyone played hardball and got a reschedule, surely that would be a very ...

The bus driver should use some common sense.
In this case if he/she wants to stop there it should be in the middle of the intersection so everyone has to stop.

The school bus drivers have to be among the worst drivers on the road.
(for thier profession)

Just today I was going 110 on HY401 my speed 110kph I got passed by 2 school buses.(the limit ...

If you post the info cheaper to do it here.
The traffic defender guy's are good too and you do not need to take the day off work.

you have 48 hours to go to the collision reporting center.

b/c there are no reporting centres in my area, where does the 48hrs come from? I have not found this timeline anywhere in the HTA. Thought it was still soon as practicable as a collision reporting centre was to free up traffic from unnecessary blockages by damaged vehicles?

I thought ...

I was backing out of my driveway and i struck my neighbours car which was parked on the road. I panicked and drove to another street and parked to car to think about what just happened. My neighbour saw the accident and went to my house and I soon returned (in approximately 10-20 minutes). I talked to my neighbour and he said he had already called ...

I got pulled over tonight on yonge, turning left from Habor St, i was in the second lane and had missed a sign saying that left turn was only to be done from the leftest lane, just to show how confusing the intersection was ive attahed this to show you guys. The officer asked for my license and insurance, and took a look at the insurance for about ...

Maybe this has been answered before and if so I apologise for doing so again. Here goes:
Sold my vehicle the other day and removed plates. Want to buy another used one today ( Sunday). MTO closed. Can I put on my old plates and use my ownership and insurance slip till Monday so that I can drive the vehicle?

You are not supposed to do that. You ...

It was around 7:30 pm I was driving to catch a train. It was 60 Km zone. Police charged me with careless driving.

I'm so shocked with that. There is no way he gave me ticket because i was speeding because there was enough cars on that road. The only thing I did that I cut few cars but with proper indication. Another thing I remember is that when ...

babygirlz05 wrote:Just a thought and was wondering,
can the person still be charged even after the incident?
Thanks again for your help

It doesn't matter what charge they get or not.

Comprehensive covers it.(less deductible)

No issue to your fees.

It is not a liability case so no increase in insurance fee.

If you need more info ask

I am on a M2 licence.

I turned from the leftmost lane to the rightmost lane to enter a store on a road - not highway. I know I was wrong and unlucky too as a cop pulled me over straight after.

I know that this will give me 2 demerit points!

Is it worth challenging the ticket completely - plead not guilty, plead guilty and beg to not add ...

So I was driving today in pouring rain, so visibility was pretty bad, and out of nowhere someone jumps on the road and shows his hand, now I went around him and kept driving but then I thought about it and think it might of been a cop hiding with a speed trap? he was wearing all dark clothes however with a hat so i didnt think it was a cop, I just ...

Too late. those SOBs came and took the car out of my driveway.
I looked out the window and saw the tow truck, and ran downstairs and hopped into my car. I told them they were on private property and ordered them to leave, to no avail. They just hooked up the vehicle with me in it. one of the police officers present threatened to break the windows ...

Just because your bike is a lot faster then the other cars you still have to be aware of the road.

The trailer hauler was looking for his exit..

You pulled out and you didn't even guess what was going on.
(you have to take in the big picture as if you were above watching it from above)

You were careless.

Did you cross a solid line?
If so ...

Several months ago, I was on my motorcycle and went to pass two vehicles at the same time. The front car was driving roughly 60kph in an 80kph zone (and had been for 5+ minutes). The car behind it (a uhaul truck) was not going to pass, so I went for it. The driver of the front vehicle, without signalling, turned left and a significant accident ...
