OPP CAN pull you up anywhere in ontario safety is the mandate if they want they can call a local to lay the charge and just play witness OPP can get pulled over but usually never in a black/white Police can pull you over anytime for no reason under compulsory auto insurance act ---

when we were in cayuga … The opp officer drove all the way to the gate to ask us questions … Yeah they can pull u over. This is HTA definition of a Highway “highway” includes a common and public highway, street, avenue, parkway, driveway, square, place, bridge, viaduct or trestle, any part of which is intended for or used by the general public for the passage of vehicles and includes the area between the lateral property lines thereof; (“voie publique”) ---

Just curious, cause today, on my way to school (where I am now) I got cut off **twice** by the same OPP Suv…In a 50 zone (Exact same place where I have a 10 over ticket…). He was doing at minimum 70, no cherries, stopped at all the reds, and was weaving in and out of traffic, on a very populated road. ---

Cops can basically do whatever they want, just remember its their word against yours. Unless you have a witness the judge will almost always side with the cop. I have been fucked over atleast 2 times because the judge didn believe me, atleast I never got charged only ticketed. ---

Actually I believe normal cops can pull you over on the highway. I’ve seen it done, im pretty sure an OPP backup is normally called however. ---

^^Not true. ^Not entirely true. I recieved a ticket from a York regional with no OPP present on HWY 400. After talking with some friends who work for YRP and having gone to school for being a police officer. Once sworn in you can enforce any law governed by the province of Ontario no matter what force you work on. ---

Ontario Provincial Police…as in all of the province…not Ontario Highway only Police. I do believe that means they are even more powerfull then a regular constable, which would only have jurisdiction in there division . ---
