just contacting you for a loved one of mine that is being charged with impaired, impaired over 80 and stunt driving,how is it possible for someone to be deemed stunt driving for losing control of a vehicle (actually listed on the ticket as losing contact with highway)where the roadway went from being gravel to paved…..and hitting a tree. I am not sure of what stunt driving is, and when the question was asked by the officer stunt driving was not even explained, i am CONFUSED as to what stunt driving actually is and not what some “NEW POLICE OFFICER” THINKS IT IS….please help this would be very much appreciated, not sure if u should endure in legal action or let this ride out????thanks!

i was charged on saturday morn of april 12 with over 80 and speeding from 1-45 over. my licence is my livelyhood as i am a truck driver. this is my first offence and the only reason i was out is because my wife left me and took the kids also and i just wanted to talk to her. now i am without my licence and i cannot provide for me or my children. i have a clean record and i dont do this ever. i just made a mistake because i love my family. what should i do? do i have a leg to stand on? i blew a 150 and then a 140. the police just kept telling me to get a lawyer. please respond quickly. thankyou so kindly. david

Hi,
I was charged with three offences last night:
1.Impaired Operation of a motor Vehicle
2.Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle
3.Drive over 80
I was wondering if this is a winnable case.I was driving home from Brampton to Oakville i had 3 pints of beer and suddenly a car changed lanes and i lost control i was taken to the hospital and taken a breathalyzer therefore i am wondering if these charges can be dropped
