Thanks. Of course someone should fix the drivers handbook as it is apparently misleading.

That's an easy one - Driver A has the right of way. There was another thread specifically on this, I will try to find it. I would appreciate the link to the other thread. I'm also curious how this is "easy" there is no direction in the HTA as to right of way in this situation. In fact I c...

I'm sure this has been asked, but I did search for right of way and couldn't find anything Who has the right of way at an intersection with a two way stop sign. Person A going south turning left arrives at intersection first Person B going north going straight through intersection arrives after Pers...

Hi,

I can't find the actual section that deals with this ?

Dave

Has this been discussed before

Rather interesting points of law.

THREAD LOCKED

Officer was a no show charges withdrawn. I think this is more common now that we have all these agents. Agents deal with most of the cases, and when they do they negotiate. Of course now that I think about it, it's in their best interest to negotiate. If they embarass the prosecutor their future neg...

It is possible that I know the JP. Does he have to recuse himself ?

What is the procedure ?

The officer did not see something... "no use of a seatbelt". So this is considered evidence ? There are so many things he does not see. I would think evidence would be he saw the seatbelt unlatched. I rarely have the seatbelt unlatched as evidence as that is not easy to see. It is way eas...

That is unless he saw him not wearing his seatbelt on the road as STOPPED him in the driveway.. ops He alleges that he did not see the seatbelt about 1km away from our driveway. He followed my son to our driveway. Did not pull him over, rather once my son had parked he pulled up to the curb by our ...

Given that the officer allegedly didn't see the seatbelt. Is this evidence ? My point would be that evidence requires you to actually see something, not seeing something is not evidence ? The officer did not see something... "no use of a seatbelt". So this is considered evidence ? There a...

I have disclosure, no mention of seeing the seatbelt latch. Looked at that site, going with officers ability to see. As it turns out the officer "pulled him over" in our driveway so no reason to have his seatbelt on there.

My son was charged with failure to wear seatbelt. The officer observed him driving by from about 20 meters away. Given that the officer allegedly didn't see the seatbelt. Is this evidence ? My point would be that evidence requires you to actually see something, not seeing something is not evidence ?...

dave, I recommend that you NOT use their form. It usually does not allow you to ask for what you really want and need. They cannot force you to use their form. Disclosure requests are usually sent to prosecution (not court) as they are responsible for the disclosure. Ticketcombat.ca has a good exam...

I just went to the courthouse in Orangeville and presented the request for disclosure to the clerk. I was told I had to use their form and send the request to another address which is the prosecutors office. I am planning on mailing it, but should I send it to the court, or the prosecutors office ?

If the offense (failure to wear seatbelt) occurred 1km away from where the ticket says it did. Is that relevant ? The officer observed me without my seatbelt at an intersection, I then put it on and he followed me to my house (1km away) and wrote the ticket with the offense occurring on my street. D...
