“Stunt Driving Speeding 58kmh Over: Speak To Crown? Conflicting Narrative In Disclosure?”

G2 driver pulled over on 400 series highway and charged with 58Kmh over and Stunting.

Had first appearance only and received disclosure. Charge screening offered accept guilty Stunt ($3000 + 1yr susp.) and will withdraw speeding.

Before shelling out the additional funds for a paralegal at this stage, my intention was to speak with the crown to accept a plea on 29km over (even would take 49km over) and withdraw the rest. If they say no, get a paralegal.

The disclosure mentions they do not take requests to meet in person or by phone with self-represented individuals.

Is there any harm reaching out myself by email with a counter offer for the above reduced plea (29km over) to save court time, with brief reason about conflicting narrative by officer?

Officer written notes stated:

I was travelling at speed 112km/hr

1h curb lane (right)

A vehicle passed me at a high rate of speed. I had the radar on the front antenna it captured a speed of 158km/hr in 100km/hr zone. I moved to the left behind the vehicle and accelerated. There were no other vehicles between me and offending vehicle. I continued to observe a speed of 158km/hr and conducted a speed discrimination test.

His type statement matches these notes, but the additional narrative and tracking history provided (has check boxes for officer to match with situation) was contradictory and impossible:

-(testing times before and after listed)

-I was operating a MPH Bee III

-The radar was in same direction mode

-I was using the permanently mounted antenna aimed directly out the front window of my police vehicle

-In this mode I am able to track the speed of moving motor vehicles travelling in front of and in the same direction at any speed as long as there is a +/1 8km/hr difference

-My patrol speed at the start of the track was displayed at 112km/h which i confirmed with my odometer

Tracking History:

-the defendant was travelling in excess of the speed limit

-there were no other vehicles between the radar and the defendant’s vehicle and with the antenna aimed in the direction of his/her vehicle, I received a speed reading of 158km/hr

-I correlated the audio doppler tone with the speed displayed

-The defendant’s vehicle passed me at which point

-I obtained readings of the vehicles travelling behind the defendant at 158km/hr

-I began confirming my observations with the radar when the defendant’s vehicle was approximately 50 m away

-the final reading was taken approximately 150m away

-I activated my emergency lights and conducted a traffic stop

Based on that narrative he was unable to record my speed behind him because he had a front facing radar only, and reported clocking another vehicle not mine when I passed.

Not sure if this is enough that a competent paralegal would have a good chance of introducing reasonable doubt to get me off completely or make a better deal with the prosecutor for a lower plea.

Hey man, reach out to the prosecutor ask for a meeting and talk about what happened ask for reduction of the tickets and because of COVID times they might give you a break. I was charged with stunt, racing, speeding after the police officer said I was doing 134km on a 80km zone (false statement) I talk to the prosecutor prior my 2nd court date and she dropped the stunt and racing and lowered the speeding for a disobey sign ticket
