As rush hour begins they are mandated to ticket and tow all vehicles parked illegally on arterial roads. You are lucky you did not get towed and incur another $150 in towing and storage.

The grace period does not apply when overstaying a meter and it becomes a no parking or stopping zone.

Are you aware that you can file an appeal for $25.

Why did they not include the OPP correspondence so you can get the whole story?

Putting stacks on a little truck like yours means it's only a matter of time before you get pulled over by MTO or a police officer to see if you have a muffler installed. No muffler means a ticket and there is no defense to the charge as the law is quite clear. So yes, I do recommend that you do have a muffler, better yet drop the stacks idea ...

Newer diesels (mostly after 2007) have emissions controls built into the exhaust but the old ones don't. In my opinion a diesel with a turbo and no muffler is considerably quieter than a diesel vehicle without a turbo and a muffler. That being said you will get a ticket because in Ontario you are required to have a muffler unless you are driving an ...

Score one for the little guy.

Any difference if you swing open your car door and the edge hits and scratches the car parked next to you? It seems now very few cars have molding designed to prevent this.

It is not a valid defense to say you were going with the flow of traffic, whoever taught you how to drive was wrong. If you want to start exploring possible defenses to this ticket then you need to file for a trial and request and review disclosure when you get your court date. Make your own notes about weather, lighting time of day, everything you ...

Is this a reopening or an appeal?

Any delay that you cause cannit be used to argue that the trial took too long.

If they allow you to have a new trial you can ask for an 11b based on the time from when you were charged to when your original trial should have been, but that would depend on if you caused any of that delay.

This is a ticket that I would love to see handed out a lot more often.

Is the tire size the same one that is listed on the manufacturers plate affixed near the drivers door? If the tires are stock then you can get a letter from the dealer confirming that the truck does not cause spray.

Typically if the tire tread sticks out passed the fender then you will cause spray. If the officer didn't see spray but officer ...

You are right that if you delay your conviction the insurance company will be unaware until after your renewal. If you delay your conviction until after you get your G you will avoid the suspension.

I would request trial and disclosure, then if the evidence against you is strong then attend trial if the officer is there just plead guilty or go ...

If it was an e-ticket the I would have an issue with the test times being exactly at the start and end of the shift to the minute.
The test times in the notes are 7:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. I know TPS has staggered start times, but I was under the impression the majority of their officers work from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on day shift. That would make the ...

If it was an e-ticket the I would have an issue with the test times being exactly at the start and end of the shift to the minute. I'd love to hear the officers explanation on how the device was tested precisely at that time. If I were a betting man I would guess that the officer always uses the shift start and stop time as the testing time rather ...

Post the notes with your personal info blacked out.

You can say whatever you want in court. Will it give you reasonable doubt? If you were the JP, would you have reasonable doubt? It really depends on the strength of the officers testimony and what are in his notes. Courts have held that momentarily losing sight of a vehicle is not going to get you out of a conviction.

The tickets you got are more on you than the owner. If you hold an A class then you already know that in addition to insurance, ownership and validation, that you are responsible for making sure that you have the CVOR Certificate, the pre-trip inspection and valid inspections for truck and trailer. If the owner does not provide them you don't drive ...

You can pay them to just file the ticket for you. Saves you a lot of time.

So you did not get a speeding ticket and the car that pulled you over was an unmarked car. Was it day or night?

What are the repercussions if one fails to comply with the standard?

Required? I think no can anyone confirm?

Business days. You need 3 full weeks.

I would research on how to force a fatal error. Make sure you keep a copy of your ticket in a safe place.

Unless the officer suspects that you are not who you say you are you are free to go with ticket in hand. There are a lot of ways the officer can confirm your identity, he is not going to issue you a ticket unless he is sure who you are.

Getting affordable insurance at 20 with this on your record will be next to impossible. You might want to renew your policy for 1 year before pleading guilty to anything. Do you have a full G? If you have or plan to get a job where you need a good driving record then it is likely that it will not work out so well. I would suggest sitting down with ...

One thing to know to add to what Sherk said is that it is:
Keep quiet about this until the trial actually starts. It is important that your court date be at least six months from the date of the alleged offence. If it is not and the officer or prosecutor is made aware of the error then they can withdraw the charge for the red light and recharge you ...

Yes, they can be ticketed. Almost anything you do that is illegal is also illegal for bus drivers but there are exceptions, I don't believe the situation you described is one of them.

I think it's worth looking into and finding out exactly how this system works. In the electronic world there must be electronic logs showing every access to the system itself. If the notes are tied to the ticket and is submitted at the same time via electronic transmission I would make another disclosure request for the exact time the ticket and ...

Question for others: Is it possible that the officer wrote the test time in his notes before he actually did? If you can get the officer to admit he wrote that he tested the device at the end of his shift before he actually did it, it could potentially give you reasonable doubt as to if the device was tested at all.

Can someone who is familiar ...

If you stretch it out as long as possible it might be a good way to handle this so one ticket drops off your record before the conviction for the 2nd one is registered. I would make sure you fully understand what your insurers policy is as it is unusual if they only hold a conviction against you for a year.

The notes look good, too good. I thought ...
