So what would have been the outcome if it was a running of a red light to get cupcakes? Does this mean cupcakes are the new twinkie defense?

That is a BIG call. What percentage of the police force do you think are either General Duties or Traffic cops???? No where near as many as peopl would think. For all we know she may be CIB, CPU, FI, PLO, Comms, anything. And if you genuinely believe that cops, other than Traffic cops, enjoy booking road users, then you guys have NO idea (NONE) of what cops job is or involves. The reality is that the average officer HATES traffic. They would prefer it is enforced by a government body other than them so they can actually deal the bigger challenges.laidback1952 wrote:She is a senior trained person who fines and testifies in court (presumably) about the actions of road users based on her training and experience.
Not disputing what you are saying only asking the question, much like many say that it is okay to speed where "they" believe it is appropriate. Open to an individuals interpretation.mick_dundee wrote:I suggest that if hanging a u turn over double white lines is NOT dangerous, then why have the fucking lines there at all? It absolutely is 100% illegal and given we are the nanny state that must make it much more dangerous than in any other state even.Naked Twin wrote:There are some other details but this leaves it very much open to interpretation. Is making a uturn across solid white lines dangerous? Well it depends on the circumstances and the view of those in the jury based on the circumstances of the case. So unfortunately it is anything but black or white.
I can write a VIS and have requested to do so, so far I have been left out and not informed.Naked Twin wrote:
Jono, the question you have ask yourself/ family, what is a suitable punishment for what happened to your son. Don't you get to write a victims impact statement where you could suggest what you want as a punishment. Based on what you have said here I think that you are reasonable and would be able to suggest a punishment that is fair and just

Same problem for the family concerned in the OP, they have asked for a transcript and been refused, too graphic evidently, ditto with the further charges, seems the OPP decided they wren't necessary and again declined to inform the family concerned. It fucking stinks!!Jonno wrote:I can write a VIS and have requested to do so, so far I have been left out and not informed.Naked Twin wrote:
