I went to traffic court and officer asked for an adjournment due to fact he had not complied with my request for disclosure. My question is do I have to request for disclosure again or is it the officer's responsibility to give it to me now?
I think the issue was he was working for different jurisdictions at that time so there was some clerical error.
A topic came up in local Reddit forum today, with an equal split of opinions, both sides being adamant that their approach is correct. When making left turns across a median, is it the red line that drivers should take or the blue one as shown in this image of Cambie Street and West 64th Avenue in Vancouver?
Question: I managed to stumble upon this website after I had an encounter with road rage. The driver of the vehicle involved drove dangerously, passing me on a double solid line in a 30 km/h playground zone.
I received a speeding ticket. which I was shocked as I didn't think I was speeding. When I looked at the ticket closely, I noticed the date of Feb 30th instead of Feb 20th.
Question: A while ago you wrote about a test that new drivers have to get at least 80% on in order to pass. I took the test and there were at least 2 road signs in it that I had never seen before. I'm worried that there are other signs I wouldn't recognize and wonder if there is a reference that I can use to look them up.
Question: I have twin daughters who will be getting their 'L' very soon. They believe the passenger restriction for a learner's licence is 1 supervisor and 1 other passenger. This will be a considerable lost opportunity for them to practice driving when we go somewhere as a family. If you've dealt with this situation do you have any advice?
I notice a habit of Vancouver drivers is that when they are turning right, and the right hand lane is used for parking and/or cycling, they will casually pull halfway into the right-hand lane and then stop (either for a red light, or to yield to a crosswalk).
Even the 3rd or 4th car in a lineup waiting to turn right will do this: stopping on the dashed line.
I wanted to turn left from one angled road onto another angled road.
Two vehicles were stopped at the stop sign.
The first vehicle was turning right and as he did, I prepared to turn left...suddenly I have a cyclist turning left from the same spot as the car; the cyclist was not obvious tucked beside the car. I could have hit the cyclist.
I have lived in the southern interior of BC . for just over 20 years .
I ‘m told that through my work experience , driving of commercial trucks as well as my own personal vehicles , I am considered to be a professional driver. I am currently semi – retired and drive a school bus for a local school district .
My 83-year old father got a violation ticket and I am considering whether I should (or can) dispute it on his behalf. It is a somewhat unique case. My father had shown signs of mental illness and last month I just managed to get a geriatric specialist to send in a medical report that requires him to take a driving assessment.
