Her cousins have told her to file a complaint. There's really not much that they can do. I was wrong to say 25 and under. They did however, mentioned that most of the time they first assess the surroundings to warrant a pull over.. driving erratically, overloading, weather conditions.....etc. Their philosophy at that speed and on those hwy's...common sense rules.

Re: 90 in an 80, but given 110 in an 80.

Moving radar opposite mode. The officer turned around and she SLOWED down to 90. So what was the speed prior to her slowing? 99% of people see the cruiser, start braking (instinct) and then look at their speedometer...way too late. (I do that myself). Thanks for responding. She was doing 100 on the hwy to be more precise Hwy 60 near Ottawa. Her cousins have told her that normally officers including them, don't pull cars over if they are going with the flow of traffic on the hwy and the flow of traffic does not exceed exceed 25km in a 400 series hwy. There was hardly any traffic on this hwy on...

90 in an 80, but given 110 in an 80.

Hello folks, Ok, need some advice here. My daughter received a speeding ticket this past weekend. Apparently she was driving 100 in an 80 limit on a divided hwy. An officer traveling the opposite direction spotted her and decided to turn around and follow her slowing down to 90. For a length of time he followed her then pulled her over. This officer had other intentions. According to my daughter, this officer tried to pick her up. When she refused his advances, he slap her with 110 in an 80. She had asked to produce the radar device and he told her that he didnt have one. Ive told her to fight...

I'm a little confused on this charge. The officer that pulled me over gave me a ticket for $52 including the set fine. But according to the ticket, she wrote "speeding 75km/h in a 50km/h zone". The fine I can live with but according to the fine structure - as mentioned in a different post, the fine should have been 112.50. And at the same time she mentioned there would be no points involved but the offence is already stated. I think I'm more worried about the points and what it would do with my insurance. When this is reported, do the courts report the charge or do they go by the for...

Crossmark vs Checkmark

Hi all,

Does anyone have any info on ticket writing procedures. I can seem to find anything in this forum regarding a "cross in a box" vs a "checkmark in a box" on a ticket. I read somewhere that it was considered a minor error with a possibility that it would null the ticket but I can't seem to find anything on this forum that verifies this or anywhere in the HTA for that matter.

Thanks :D
