WOW.... Where does one Start? So much Fail in this post it makes my head hurt.

You guys are spoiled in the GTA If you get typed notes for traffic court. The notes are the officers, to refresh his memory long after the events. Around here I don't think even the defence gets a typed copy for criminal matters (ie impaireds)

As close to instant that the wait is negligible. Almost instant, any province, any state. No formal request required.

I can tell you that you wont be getting his call history for the day. Not only is it irrelevant, it is none of your business. Even if some JP, somewhere thought it was relevant; read: Never going to happen; it would be vetted to ***** and wouldn't make any sense to you...

Exactly. That and on Fri/Sat night as much as 10% of the vehicles on the road are impaired by drug or alcohol...

The radar antenna works the same as a flashlight, it is a cone. The farther from the antenna the more width is used to pickup targets.I don't know the area you speak of, the distance involved or the grade of the hill to tell you whether or not the radar could have picked you up. I can tell you...

Why do you seem to think there is some secret vendetta against you? The officer looked at the collision and applied the most appropriate charges to what he felt occurred. 141(5) Left Turn fail to afford reasonable opportunity to avoid collision. 110 , 3pts (Applies to Intersections only)...

Well they weren't shooting the breeze and having a coffee. I guess you have experience in: -Traffic control -Towing two vehicles, the bike needs flat bed, maybe car too -waiting for debris swept, absorb-all for engine fluids -Completing a traffic report, with diagram -taking a statement from a...

No. The crown cannot cross examine a letter. He COULD agree to enter the document, however it holds little value without the person there to state it for the court and be crossed.
