Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Just to close out the post I initiated:
in the 3rd time in court, I won. Interpreter didn't show up (prosecutor forgot to book it)

btw I won my other HOV lane ticket as well.

Although they were all easy wins, but I was all prepared to goto trial and cross examine! Just they all backed off in front of me. I see some JP does love French language ...

I sent you a PM.

Hi rader,

you are right on, she showed me row #29 in the table in O.reg 339/94 for 143/144(9) and bylaw.

Thanks Rader!!!

now I understand the impact of the french language act, the city is so lazy... after 2004 case they still have not changed that very same sign on Bay/Edward, what a ...

I cannot think of how they can not pay attention to this as this happened in the same court, same intersection, same charge!

You gave me real hope tonight!

thanks

Hi Radar Identified,

thanks. French thing won't work for me as I do not understand French at all...

I am interested in knowing how to talk to them to get me charged under city by-law, my main objective is to get off insurance, paying $110 is no issue.

Hi QQ29,

any result yet?

I was charged for disobey sign (no left turn) in a winter noon time around Bay/Edward (the prosecutor/judge said it to be a Absolute liability offences but disobey sign is actually a strict liability offence, right? And I found this: For example, if you made an illegal left-turn where there were signs clearly marking this fact, saying you didn't ...

just talked to someone, he said if charged by HTA not Municipality By-Law, they do not necessarily need to provide the by-law certified copy.

any comments?

Hi Radar Identified:
