I have no idea when/if it'll even happen at this point. I have a good 6 months of back logged cases due to covid that bumped my hearing and received a letter that I'd get another letter with a new date. That was a month ago, and I haven't recieved anything. Now with a modified "stage 2" things are once again a mess. I know this stuff is slow going, especially in Brockville area which is near the 401. |

I know. It's really just bad for them all right now and they don't seem to get the support they need a lot of the time, even pre el Corona.

My buddy was in a similar situation except he didn't give the cop attitude by trying to explain the law - he got off with having to take some prudent drivers course and took the hit on his license but no additional fines or impounding. Like you said lose, lose.

OP, sorry about your job loss.
Here is my take: Officer saw a modified 2 door sports car making a fast left and the rear wiggled a bit. He can tell you are speeding visually but not clocked. He followed you to see if you 'mess up' so he can pull you over. You didn't but he still need to warn you. You IMO is slightly confrontational. Telling him about mask, questioning his judgement/ interpretation of the law. So he charged you with stunt driving because that is all he has. Is it justified? Probably not, up to the court to decide. Bottom line is you already paid to learn your lesson. Don't speed, respect the officer. You will never win that power struggle at the side of the road. |

I'm sure some would argue that I got what I deserved or deserve worse. I hope the prosecutor isn't one of them. Not all police officers would have hit me with that charge and he can really mess me up if there is a conviction. I have an extra $850 on my credit card bill as an immediate result, but that's literally a fraction of my monthly expenses these days. Had to get by without a car for a week, but didn't miss going to work. Insuring a daily and a summer car for an exorbitant amount would likely end keeping a summer car. And paying more than the amount for both to cover 1 vehicle.
Normally my attitude is not at all challenging when pulled over, knowing I have recourse later. In this case, not having faced this situation before, I was unsuccessfully attempting to avoid immediate punitive action but unfortunately this guy would have no part of it. I suppose it looks better on him as well as a staff sergeant to reel in something meaty, but again I think the charge was far too severe and since I have already had an ample immediate punishment I think it should be thrown out. That is, unless they have evidence showing me guilty as charged, hands down, which I am fairly sure they don't, unless they'll prosecute based on evidence that might be left to interpretation. There will be no point lamenting the cop's decision, even if it is dismissed after. It is what it is, and he has the authority which ultimately must be acknowledged. Otherwise people would pay no heed and just carry on as they have previously. Anyway, the FR-S is put to sleep for the next 5 months now.

A right to a fair and speedy trial is in the charter and there are no provisions for pandemics.
I have successfully argued that this right was violated on more than one occasion, unrepresented. |

XCopper type places use that as a way to try to win ALL the time. Find reasons to delay multiple times until the right is violated and it gets tossed.

You can do that yourself for free if those are the types of games you want to play.
You can also go the courthouse and wait for the clock to tick 24 hours from the alleged offence and ask the clerk if the ticket has been filed. If not, it must be withdrawn. |

A police officer has 7 days to file a ticket, and it could take up to 15 days for the POA court to show a record of the offence. https://www.toronto.ca/311/knowledge...-payments.html
