I would argue that at the court, whatever the cop wrote wouldn't stand up to a challenge since there is no mention of that in the MVA. But in your case, it doesn't really matter though since there seems to be other issues that you might have to fix. And besides, who really has the resources to fight the police like this?

This is why this whole VI thing sucks.

I agree, there's no time to fight it. I was really surprised to get a box 2 as it seems to be pretty thin justification. I felt that maybe a 3 and a fine/violation for the plate would have been more reasonable.

That's not annoying enough to just pay a fine. He wants to inconvenience the shit out of everyone. Can't wait for spring to roll around so we can finally see them in full flight and finally get something in the news.

it was a R32, not R34. cops were walking around looking at stuff on the R32. also a bike was on a flatbed as well. no insurance? or were they racing each other? lol

Isn't there no recourse for the VI process. You can't really bring this to court unless you filed a civil lawsuit or something.

I would wager no, but on the prairies people ride their snowmobiles right to the gas station in the winter. I'd say if the snow was really bad enough that you needed tracks to get around the RCMP isn't exactly able to get out and about either.

They are just bored because weed is legal, the courts are backed up with violation tickers as it is, and this is an easy way to look like they are making a difference, without further adding to the list of violation ticket disputes.

∆ are they even allowed to go to your house and enforce that you have your car VI'd? Seems kinda BS to me. What if it's in the garage and they can't see it. Doesn't that mean they would need a warrant?

I bought my old Passat from an RCMP officer (who put a louder muffler on it, BTW), and a week after I bought the car, he visited me at home to see how things were going.

This just sounds like straight up harassment, and more reason for most of us outside of Vancouver to not go anywhere west of Boundary.

Wow what a waste of time if it’s true they went to his house. I find that hard to believe somehow but... that’s just an outright waste of tax dollars if they are, 2 full salary police officers conducting follow up investigations on notices they’ve issued? This is as poor a use of time as there is.

Considering the guy got $1200 in tickets and an instant tow, they might see it as justified.

Sorry, but what was the point of posting that baiting image just to follow up with a juicy bit of info to make it more reasonable?

Why is it that things happen, and then there's always more to the story that doesn't get shared or come to surface until later?
