Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
Anyone know if I should fill a second disclosure request for calibration record of that police vehicle? and a maintenance record?

Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
There's nothing preventing you from challenging the officer's testimony and going to trial. Its always beneficial for people like you to take matters to court when the odds are significantly against them. That's how the law gets better clarified. Since its your money, time and driving record on the...

Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
I think you'll be in for quite the lesson if you go to trial. Remember, the officer does not have to write down everything in her notes; the notes aren't evidence; they are only used to refresh her memory. She just has to have an independent recollection of events and can't simply read off her note...

Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
You're overthinking the idea of pacing. The officer maintains an equal distance between vehicles and looks down at the speedometer. Keep in mind speeding is what they call an absolute liability offense. That means during a trial they will only consider whether you were doing the speed limit or not....

Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
Does anyone have experience challenging an officer's memory? One more thing I've noticed is that that the road I was on is slightly curved so she should have paced me in the same lane. Judging from the picture, do you think this is enough of a curve to use this argument? Screen Shot 2020-06-10 at 2....

Re: Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
The officer paced your vehicle; she did not use a radar or laser device to get your speed. Her notes don't give a lot of detail as to how long she actually paced your vehicle (i.e. time/distance) but she says she was going 80 in a 50. Pacing is perfectly acceptable by the courts. While it is possib...

Vague Disclosure (attached) 60 in a posted 50 zone, reduced from 80
I was pulled over by an officer from behind (I think I drove past her). She said I was speeding but didn't tell me how fast exactly, said she reduced the ticket to 60 in 50 zone. I had a feeling that she didn't catch me on the radar so I asked for the disclosure. It says "the acc was driving a ...

Re: Wrong Date - Force Fatal Error
Thank you Whenaxis! I called the courthouse and the lady said it is in the system. And there is a correct date right above the officer's number "other service date of: Jan 21". That area is blank on my ticket. Does it affect anything? on the pay ticket online system, the offence date says ...

Wrong Date - Force Fatal Error
Hi everyone, I got caught speeding 73 in a 50 zone on Jan 21. The officer reduced it to 60. But I noticed the date on the ticket says 2016/11/30. Should I ignore the ticket and force fatal error? If they miss the mistake, can I get the ticket quashed during appeal? Thank you!
