Can anyone help me out on how to read a police report?

Hello all, Somebody rear ended me last week pretty badly. My car is a write off and the officer who attended the scene emailed me his report. I can see that the other driver was charged with careless driving but I can't seem to figure the rest out. The report has numbers along the side of the page a...

Re: Insurance claims I was in an accident?

When I asked for further details he wouldn't give me anymore until I threatened to call the ombudsman. He then said apparently I was invol...

When can a child sit in the front seat?

Good morning everybody. Does anybody know when a child should be allowed to sit in the front seat of a car? I tried looking around for answers but nobody has a definite answer. I've heard different answers ranging from age 8 to age 14. I know air bags can cause serious injury to children and sometim...

Re: Does this count as "Fail to remain"? What are my options

Thank you all for your replies. The person who hit my car ended up reporting it to the security personnel yesterday (a day after he hit my car). It is who I expected it to be so I went out and got a quote to fix my car and called him to let him know it's $1200. He said the price was too high and to ...

Re: Question about getting into an accident when turning lef

Hi Hawaii

Yes she had her turn signal on before turning.
It's just the way the rules were written that seems unfair.
Nothing she can do about it now since she has already reported it to insurance.

Re: Question about getting into an accident when turning lef

Thank you Stanton and CliffClaven for your replies. I saw the part that Stanton was talking about where if the motor vehicle was overtaking multiple vehicles then the other vehicle is at fault. Why does that change anything? Howcome it's 50-50 when it's just 1 vehicle but 100% the other person's fau...

Re: Told my 11B motion was defective

Did you remember to make the motion before entering a plea of any sort? I've filed for 11B twice and twice was successful. First time the prosecutor was nice and did everything for me, she called me up and told the JP i filed for an 11B and it was accepted. The 2nd time I had to work for it and educ...

Re: 40km on a 30km area on Airport Terminal 1 Passanger Drop

Wait so if an officer gives me a ticket at the Airport for anything, it's not a HTA ticket? My wife was told she made an "illegal u turn" a month ago because she was lost and drove to a dead end, she ended up making a 3-point turn and the officer jumped out right away to say it was a U-Tur...

On the other hand, if you wait it out then maybe the officer had other thingsto do And forgot to file his paperwork properly. ...
