funny thing is that I wasn't driving the Lexus...first ticket in a non-modified car w00t!!!
Dispute it. I always do; 9 times out of 10 the cop doesn't show, in which case it's dismissed. I have a dispute on now for an infraction on Barnet last Nov. Still no Court date; I have a feeling ICBC's dropped it altogether...

my understanding is that if the cop is VPD, then you have a good chance the cop won't show and the case will be dismissed. if the cop is RCMP, you are most likely SOL (they almost always show up in court, and if they can't they will reschedule your court date). this has been my experience in the past, not sure about now tho...

I've got one STILL out from May 07 ... it's definitely passed the 'trial in a timely fashion' bit in the charter ... that was the best ticket too!

I also saw a couple of CL members over this weekend...quite a lot of them, or that there are so many modified Lexus that are not on this site.
Sorry for the late reply. I had an event going on there. It was between 11:00am till around 5:00 pm.

I've had no shows from both. This one was from the new coordinated farce, oops I mean force, that is made up of various lower mainland officers using differently painted cars, and funded by ICBC, I believe. This guy was hiding at the bus stop on that first big curve on Barnet in Port Moody. It was also pouring rain, which makes me suspicious of the accuracy of his laser (curve+rain???). Anyway, I'm still waiting which tells me they've got their hands full, so we'll see what happens there...
