    Attorney General's Public Consultation for Traffic Offences

    There is a petition against the implementation of Administrative Penalties here: https://www.change.org/p/kathleen-wynne-madeleine-meilleur-ontario-mpps-stop-administrative-penalties-in-ontario There was a great message posted there. I think so anyway: I value the presumption of innocence. I...

    Speed doesn't kill anymore I guess. Maybe they'll make it like tolls and give us transponders.

    Attorney General's Public Consultation for Traffic Offences

    I am concerned with the government's plan to opt out of affording Charter rights by making laws that look, smell, and affect like regular laws, but calling them administrative penalties. It started with ADLS suspensions. We all thought then that there was no way you'd lose your license just...

    Part 1 Traffic offences are prosecuted by the municipality in which they are heard. The fine revenue goes to the municipality. The JP is paid by the provincial government, not the municipality. The screening and hearings officers employed for AMPS currently are employees of the municipality...

    What ever happened to Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer?

    Does anyone have any fresh updates on this case? Was a decision rendered in November or was the case put over for decision?
