Hey guys this is my second time posting. A while back actually about 5 month ago I got a ticket for proceeding contrary to sign at intersection 144(9). When the officer was asking me for my insurance and drivers license, i did not have the new insurance slip, thus he also gave me a ticket for…
I requested disclosure of a radar manual in original disclosure request. Didn't get disclosure until trial date, so an adjournment was granted. At that time the Provincial Prosecutor stated that it wasn't his policy to release the manual to…
Just curious to hear a few opinions on the following video taken at a photo enforced intersection.
As you can see, the light was still yellow for a fraction of a second as the camera-car entered the intersection (crossed the stop line), but it was close.
I drive a Honda Civic and we all know how those are when it comes to theft. On my driveway my brothers car was stolen twice and once broken in to. Also a few other cars have been stolen on my street. I have an alarm and all that. But say my alarm was going off and I ran outside and fought off the…

Friend of mine called police to report someone driving dangerously on a highway. Couple days later he got a call from unknown number claiming it is the police and they asked his home address so that they can some documents to fill in.
Is this regular procedure? Will he have to be a witness in the court?
if the person was driving dangerously and they were stopped police would need a witness statement from your friend. Typically the police would drive to the person's house or have them come to the detachment/station to provide a written statement. Having said that, if the friend is not from the area of where it was reported, the police might call by phone and do an interview over the phone or maybe send something by email. To clarify it was infact the police, just call the detachment/station to confirm you were contacted by an officer.
