Youre actually lucky that you received any portion of the manual. Recent case law doesnt require disclosure of any parts of speed measuring device manuals.

Id certainly put someones knowledge, skills and abilities above a piece of paper any day of the week. A certificate is only worth the paper its printed on.

Youre not likely to get an answer from jsherk. Thats a banned account.

You're misreading it. There is no need to post signs in a built up area unless the maximum speed is something other than the statutory maximum of 50 km/h. Likewise there is no need to post 80 km/h in the more rural areas. You might also want to check the Bylaw for Barrie. All of their speed variatio...

If the 50 km/h maximum was "within a local municipality or within a built-up area" as per section 128(1)(a) there is no requirement to post any signs. There is only a requirement under section 2(1) of that regulation to post signs "where a maximum rate of speed other than that prescribed by subsecti...

A dismissal wont even be on the table. They may provide you with disclosure in two days and reschedule the trial.

About disclosure. Its your disclosure. Once you request it, its your responsibility to get it and to check to see if its ready. Theres no requirement for them to bend over backwards to make sure you get it.

Here it is: Where to stop – intersection (5) A driver who is directed by a traffic control signal erected at an intersection to stop his or her vehicle shall stop, (a) at the sign or roadway marking indicating where the stop is to be made; (b) if there is no sign or marking, immediately...

A recent Ontario Court of Appeal decision allows officers to amend a Certificate of Offence after the Offence Notice has been served. Your Offence Notice may not have a fatal flaw. The only way to find out would be to file an appeal with the court.

They have six months from the date of the offence to serve a summons.

With an offence date of June, its not likely that they will withdraw a charge. More likely to get disclosure that day and have it put off to another date. You also indicate thats you received no reply to your disclosure request. Its actually your responsibility to contact them to see if disclosure i...

The blacked out name may be the radar/Lidar instructors name who qualified him. Thes are the officers notes rpthat are made to refresh his/her memory. Its not an all inclusive diary. Youll probably have to get the officer on the stand to clarify these points. If theres no indication of an end of shi...

It appears that he simply tested two different speed measuring devices. One a laser and the other a moving radar.

Trials in absentia are used for offences where a Summons is issued. The officer is then required to present their evidence to establish a conviction.

If the defendant does not show up at trial, under the POA, a section 9.1 is conducted and without a hearing or the officer being on the stand a conviction is registered if the certificate of offence is regular on its face.
The offcer is not required to be there for this process.
