Re: 1 way street what is it?

I finally got my notice to appear.
September 2009.

I went back to the scene and took a few pictures.

My !@3#4$(0_+ camera resets the date every time I re-charge the batteries.

I did not know this.

The pictures I took have the date 2005 on them.

Can this be an issue?
The date stamp I mean.

Cheers

Re: Remember those annoying Sylvania light bulbs commercials?

As to safety.

When you use low-beam the top of the beam should just touch the top of the plate on the car in front of you..

Re: ParkingTickets.TO

[I am a courier so they usually just delete most of my tickets.I have some that are over 3 years with no court date or response.


I think I could go in and check after 3 or more years and get them to delete them.

Re: ParkingTickets.TO

Just don't be so lazy or cheap and park where you are supposed to.

Saves the 6 bucks and/or 50 cents and the ticket :lol:

Watching parking wars on TV. One guy gets a ticket every day...to park legally it was $26 bucks for a day, but a parking ticket (if tagged) was only $21 :shock:

In my opinion the lazy person is the one who uses visa and ...

Re: ParkingTickets.TO

The last time I went to do that I had to pay .50$ in the meter.
That is minimum.
Then you add on time and other bs $6.00 is not bad

I wish my dad was able to give me a bike ride.
I gave my son one but he started crying at 55 mph.

Re: proper procedure

Hey knowjus''

The other day I was driving past 1 of those speed signs.
They have the posted speed then your speed.
(not sure what kind of radar it is)
I was looking for street # "so I was slow"
The speed changed a lot on the sign because it is hard to get a single car zeroed in.

It may depend on how many other cars were around you.

It may be a ...

Re: Proposed Graduated License Changes

I think the biggest problem is the youngsters see what we do way before they can ever drive a car.

They see "when they are going to school" cars just slowing for stop signs etc.

The parent gets caught speeding, and the story about the bad cop.(loss of respect)

School buses hell bent to get where-ever they go.

Lots of bad habits learned before ...

Re: Late seventies

citizens arrest is good anywhere.

I kinda started this thread to see if anyone else has used this method to deal with mistakes on tickets?

Stories are good too.


Have a great day

Re: parking ticket

That,s what makes me go hummmmmm.


I was in a no parking spot no question.

The paid parking part starts about 15 feet from the curb.

also I am a courier and am allowed to park in any code 5 violation
for up to 10 minutes.

My concern is the 9 meters from the roadway?

Many spots are allowed with-in 9 meters of roadway.

Late seventies

Up until 78 I had just slow cars etc with no problem with speeding.

Then I got a 900 Kawasaki.

Back then if a cop tried to catch me I was out of his normal area if
he caught up to me.

Often it was in another city or town.(by then)

At that time if you objected to the charge it would be dropped.(needs mistake)
(had to be before they said anything ...

parking ticket

I have had something close to 500 parking tickets so I am good at parking in no parking places.

The last one I got is a bit of a puzzle.

North York
No parking within 9 meters of a crossing road.

I was about an inch from the edge of the sidewalk so I did it.

What confuses me is the 9 meters thing.

The paid parking starts at a car length from ...
