Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

Sorry for being a bother, I was beginning to panic. Good luck on the house hunting, I know that can be a lot of work.

Thanks again for the help

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

I'm in my last 3 weeks before trial and no one will reply? Sorry if I've upset someone here, but there must be a simple 2 minute answer for the questions I've asked.

Disclosure question - urgent

Due to personal matters, my trial date snuck up on me. I'm up in 3 weeks and haven't asked for disclosure. If I go now will they refuse point blank due to the time constraints or change my trial date and blame me, or maybe change the date at and not blame me? I'm really confused on how to handle thi...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

Anyone? From what I've read I should have requested disclosure 8 or 9 weeks before trial. Mine is 3 weeks away. Should I forget about even asking now or should I go now and drop off the forms?

thanks

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

BTW as can be seen in the first post, the offence was Mid February. Is there anything I can do at this time that will get this throw out due to the length of time? Must I fill out form after form or would it be sufficient to show up in court and request a Stay? (I'm tossing this stuff out there now ...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

Hi again, My time in court comes up Mid December and unfortunately due to personal issues haven't followed any of the actions that I should have so far. Is it too late to request disclosure? Is there anything else I should do to help me get either no conviction or a much reduced charge (prefer somet...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

I hate to be a pain here but there's something I don't understand. I'm not claiming the sign is obscured. While I'm on the ramp, due to the angle of the car, as well as some small bushes and that I'm doing due dillegence by paying attention to cars that I'm merging with, how is that sign legally vis...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

Wow, I honestly thought this would be an open and shut case. The sign is obscured by some small trees at the side of the road as I'm on the ramp (although it wouldn't be in my cone of vision due to the ramp curve at that time anyway) and as I approached it was doing my due dilligence (mirror and sho...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

I'm all ready to take the pictures, just out of curiousity .... can they be taken from the side of the road using a tripod, or do they need to be taken from a vehicle showing the windshield to give the court a better idea of viewing angles etc? The reason I ask is it can be busy and it is a no stopp...

Re: Defense for Sign not Visible

Details: There is a google maps link at the end of this post. I was travelling North on Don Valley Parkway when it suddenly backed up badly just before Lawrence. I bailed to avoid delays but when I got to Lawrence realized it ramped Eastbound when I wanted to go westbound. There was no Westbound tra...

Defense for Sign not Visible

Recently I got a ticket for disobey sign under the HTA. From where I turned on to the street, the sign was visible for less than 10 metres, during which time I was performing safety checks for upcoming turn. ( I'll post full details after I first get some advise. ) What is the best defense for this?...
