holy poo,
i would absolutley laugh my face off right in front of the officer when he was writing that ticket up.
u dont need a lawyer to beat this thing.
were you actually doing donuts there or no?
either way, the witness is not an officer and the officer cannot issue a ticket for something he did not see.
get your court date, get the police report (“disclosure” in ontario).
have the date remanded to a later date about a week before the first court date they give you. if the witness was planning to show this will throw her off a bit. it will also mess with the cops schedule as well.
tell them you have school / out of town / exam / hangover and that you cant make it next week.
they should give you at least one remanding.
when you show in court the cop will read his notes or whatever:
responding to complaint, ran the license plate ticketed owner of vehicle.
when you get the ask the questions you go like this:
“Officer Homo-face, you say you were responding to a complaint is that true?”
“yes”
“where were you when the complaint was filed”
“Tim Horton’s…duuuhhh”
“so you were not in the immediate area of the alleged offence when it was said to have occured?”
“no”
“so then you could not have seen the offense is that true”
“yes it is”
“if you did not witness the offense you would not be able to identify the driver is that true”
“yes it is”
" to recap, you did not see the offense, nor did you see who was driving said vehicle when the alleged offense occured is that right?"
“yes it is”
thank you
put the witness on the stand if she shows
“Hello Mrs. prostitute avec le bastarde fille. Are you an accredited officer of the law?”
“no i am not”
“are you familiar with all of the individual sections and subsections of the Highway traffic Act?”
“heck no”
“does your word mean anything in court at all”
“my daughter says i’m cool”
“good night”
ticket gone
if some some wild reason you get convicted anyways you can file an immediate appeal, then get yourself a pricey lawyer.
the lawyer will walk into the office of the crown:
“hey bob”
“hey jim”
“foose-ball tonite”
“sure, i’m buying if you reduce this ticket for me”
“what is it?”
“some kid. did some stuff. lady complained.”
“you’re buyin right?”
wallah no ticket
