There was a traffic accident a week or so ago on Highway 7 on the outskirts of Peterborough @ a set of traffic lights. One of the drivers was charged w/ 'Failure to avoid an accident' (or something like that). Can you clear that
The charge would read something like this:
148(5)
Fail to turn out to left to avoid collision
Or a variation on that. Essentially you failed to perform an action that would've prevented the collision.

Why should charges received on a peddle bike affect your licence ? What if you don,t have a drivers licence ? Hopefully you would get stopped by a good cop, that could see some humor in a situation like this. Kinda sad that they wouldn,t just hold the guy in a cell and let them ride their bike home once sober.
If the charges are under the traffic, they affect your DL. If you do not have a licence, the MTO generates a DL number for you. Should you ever try to get one..that record will stay with it.
As for your other question. The answer was based on absolute black/white. Real life as you know can be different. Happy/funny drinks always fare better than their counterparts. You (general"you") determine how each interaction will go.

The guys at work are arguing with each other regarding getting charged with a dui on peddle bike. What can a person get charged with and does it affect your driver's license?
Short/easy answer is no. But you can be charged with public intoxication and held until sober. You could also be charged with any traffic act laws you break such as careless depending on poor your riding is. The traffic act charges WOULD affect your drivers licence. Hope you win the bet!

After he was airlifted, the rider(in his late 50's) was stable and non life threatening. No alcohol involved. They had not ridden that trail before. I SUSPECT but NOT confirmed that speed was a factor based on what I've read. Be safe out there guys/girls... Only takes one second of inattention.

Ok but if you produce both an expired insurance tag and current licence tag can you be charged for producing the non current tag?
Oh, sorry Poncho. I misunderstood. Both a current AND expired were produced at the same time? If so, that happens a lot. People let the slips pile up for whatever reason... If a current slip was produced at the traffic stop, at the same time and it was legit without issues I fail to see how a charge could be laid. The act requires you to produce a VALID card, it does not refer to expired cards or how many cards you can carry.

Sean what is the penalty/charge if you present an expired insurance slip, however have a current non expired insurance slip. I know it’s subject to officers discretion, but what if he or she was determined on giving a ticket.
If you're talking vehicle it is $50 fine/$65 total (compulsory automobile insurance act s3(1) ) If you're talking MSV it's $85 fine?$110 total (motorized snow vehicle act s12(2) ).
According the acts, you are required to produce proof or evidence of insurance upon demand, similar to your licence or registration. Like 99% of provincial statutes an officer can exercise discretion and simply warn, provide time to produce or issue you a provincial offences notice (ticket).

Meanwhile in B.C.
@odot1 is this coming down the pipe in Ontario?
I have no idea how I would drive half an hour to work everyday without drinking my coffee.
Haven't heard anything like that coming here. BC has government insurance program. Often times due to that, they will institue higher penalties and fines...more strict regulation as they are the ones paying for it.

The driver was both prohibited and suspended.
The suspensions could result from various reasons from unpaid fines to failure to pay family support. It is a provincial level offence. The prohibition is a criminal court order not to drive basically anything anywhere. A much more serious offence and involves a 45 day impediment of the vehicle being driven.
Prohibition is ordered in court following a CRIMINAL code conviction for any sort of driving offence. Think dangerous, impaired etc...
Lemme know if that clears it up or makes it more confusing!!

Also, our team uses the SENA Communicators. They are user friendly, have their own app, good for about 150' sled to sled. We have our GPS, police comms, and intercom integrated without issue.

Dogs have a very special spot in our hearts, I am not sure what it is, but damn isn't it one of the toughest things when you loose your companion.
Better have a few of those drinks though.

As said, you gave him a great run of 10-years and you both did great things together.
I know what you're going through, we had to "rebuild" one of ours and he was the toughest to say goodbye too.
Godspeed Rupert!

You guys are awesome!! Thanks for the comments... Nothing quite like a man and his dog, eh?!? Today I went to the KIngston Humane Society where they had me pick a kennel they are naming in his honour and making him a "guardian angel". Apparently this little dog was much bigger than I ever thought!! I will continue my efforts with the Humane society and the 2020 walk will be in his memory. Thanks again guys... you helped make it just a little easier!!!

Many of you know I have a black lab with a kick ass back story...
About 3 weeks ago Rupert was diagnosed with cancer (two masses) in his left rear leg. Normally this would just be an amputation and he'd be good. However due to his extreme injuries from the car accident he was not a candidate. His best friend and Dr, Cherie White prescribed a pain management therapy and he continued on as normal...well as normal gets for a dog rebuilt after being hit on the 401!! We had a great 3 weeks of eating and drinking all the food!! (he may have shared a Corona as well...) But sadly, Rupert was put to rest this morning. I am absolutely devastated and working on recovering but as you know all too well, it's not easy. I will forever be grateful to you guys for all your support over the years with our fundraising. We've saved many dogs and gave Rupert a lasting legacy. He was given an extra 10yrs nobody thought he had and lived large!!! Rest assured, I will continue to work with the Humane Society as best I can. I can never say enough good things about the work they do!!
Thanks guys... I'm going to wipe the tears from my eyes and grab a stiff drink! To those with pets, hug them tight!!!

So you'd make me stick them on eh..Dam.. They can still go on the tunnel at the back though right? That's the only place I can think of so far
Yes, the back of the tunnel works. To be legit, has to be viewable while you are seated on the sled and on both sides. Oh, I wouldn't make you put reg numbers on trail side.

Just now, Renegade X said:
Ya they sure do.. All black sled with that on the windshield would look just great..hahaha Figured if guys run around with trail passes "in their pocket" maybe I'd do that with the numbers lol
JUST FYI... we make them put the passes on!!! Love the expression on their faces as they try to figure out a way to tell their buddy they had to stick the "group pass" on the sled!!

Asking for a friend?!?! "Fail to display registration number" $85 fine plus costs and victim surcharge = $110. Plus a stern glaring!!

PERSONAL opinions of an OPP SAVE officer
in Ontario
Posted
Once off your own property you're required to carry proof of registration and insurance and present it upon demand at all times. The officer can use his/her discretion and allow time to produce but it's completely up to the officer. The Motorized Snow Vehicle Act (MSVA) covers all areas outside private property. As for speeding, the MSVA references prescribed trails and municipal areas. Technically a staked and opened trail along a lake would fall into that. I've never issued a speeding ticket on a lake nor has anyone in my unit to the best of my knowledge. And really...just ride beside the stake trail and you're no longer on OFSC trails. Too bad about your buddies. I wasn't there and can't comment specifically on their situation...but hope my answer helps.
