Driving Without A Licence
Nov 11, 2009 More Saving
One of the worst offenses on our roads is driving without a valid Drivers license. This is something that has been ingrained into us right from the first days when we start driving, but it is so surprising to note that there are thousands of violations reported each year of people driving without a license!
There are various levels of driving without a license, and the most basic of them is where people forget to carry their licenses and go out. When stopped by the police, the good answer is to be honest about it, and let them impound the car or tow it away to the nearest police station. You can go home, get your license, pay the fine, say sorry (and take whatever else they may hand down to you), and come home with your car.
The real problem is when people do not have a licence at all and are caught driving on the roads. Somehow, there are a handful of people whove got away with it and have put their stories up on various online forums and even on youtube. However, realistically, there is no way out if you dont have a licence and are caught driving.
The really big problems start arising when you dont have a licence at all and you are involved in a road accident. If you find yourself in this situation, well all I can say is God help you! The penalties for this (depending on the laws in the state or county) that you happen to be in range from a lifetime ban on driving, having your car impounded or a spell in prison.
The worst penalties however are for when a driver has had a driving ban placed upon him/her and then they are caught driving. Even if they have a temporary ban, the penalties are more severe for driving during that period than driving without a licence at all. Driving after having a permanent ban on your licence really is a shortcut to federal prison!
People driving without a licence is simply an attitude problem. If an understanding that the rules are there for our convenience can be achieved then that should put an end to the attitude problem.

Reasons for Hiring an Insurance Broker
Oct 17, 2009 More Saving
Insurance is something that plays a very large role in helping a small business reduce any liabilities that they may have. For this process, hiring an insurance broker can be really important. There are numerous reasons for hiring an insurance broker. Insurance brokers are not actually agents, because insurance agents are actually only responsible for filling out and filing paperwork. On the other hand, insurance brokers are actually responsible for those products that they are selling to you. Insurance agents are not actually under any obligation to tell you what product is going to fit you the best or the most seamlessly, but an insurance broker is.
- You should be thinking about the type of insurance that you are looking for, for your business. There are a number of different types of products out there, some which are only for your property and others that are only to protect your workers.
- Now you are going to want to consider how much money is going to be needed from your company budget in order to pay for the insurance coverage that you have decided is right for your business needs.
- Now what you are going to want to do is to conduct some research on the different insurance companies that are available out there. Choose a few that seem to over the small business insurance products that you are looking for. Make sure that you do this before you hire an insurance broker. Two examples of insurance companies that offer these products are Wells Fargo and Travelers.
- Now you are going to want to phone the insurance company that you chose so that you can get some insurance quotes for whatever types of insurance you are thinking about purchasing for your business.
- Now set an appointment so that you can meet with a broker for the company that you chose so that you can learn more information about the insurance products they are offering and which ones are going to best address the needs of your business.
- The next step is going to be for you to select an insurance carrier that is actually offering all of the products that are fitting in with the needs of your business. Make sure that the prices or premiums also work with your budget. Just because they have the products doesn’t mean they are the best insurance carrier if your budget needs are not also being met at the same time.
- Finally you are going to want to meet up with your broker so that you can sit down and fill out all of the required paperwork. Make sure that the insurance that you are buying is still the best option for your business during this meeting, and sign the paperwork to make your policy an active one as soon as you are certain that you are making the right decision.
It is essential to purchase car insurance and life insurance in Oshawa; it offers you and your family a peace of mind. Insurance brokers in Oshawa serve to ease the process of finding out which insurance plans are fit for you.

The Dangers Of Careless Driving
Oct 16, 2009 More Saving
Where driving without due care and attention used to be something of a defence, it is now far more of an offence. Momentary lapses of concentration are no longer an excuse in a court of law, in fact, in some instances; it can be enough to land you in jail.
Powerful associations like MADD ” Mothers against drunk driving, and other such associations have been lobbying for such changes in the law for quite some time now, and several states have statutes which vary in degrees depending on the severity of the outcome of careless driving.
But what is so surprising is that people dont take driving without due care and attention so seriously. They sympathize with the offender and offer advice as to how they can get away from it all! On a legal forum, we came across a question put by a member who apparently was charged for spinning tires on a gravel road by virtue of going very fast. There was a petrol pump next to where he was fined and the officer mentioned in his report that the offender was driving without due care and attention, and that since the petrol pump was open and there were people in the area, he could have injured someone. Now, the question in the forum was whether proving if the petrol pump was closed will be beneficial to his case, and to our surprise, dozens of people gave advice as to how he could prove that something in the cops report was wrong! What citizenship!!
Every year there are thousands of deaths or serious injuries on the roads as a result of negligent driving and we dont really take notice. Tens of thousands of people lose their licences every year because of careless driving, at least temporarily and many of them just turn up back behind the wheel without a valid licence! Even though the people in the surrounding neighbourhood may well know about it, most people will not pull them up on it, and this is what causes most of the motoring offences on our roads.
Though driving without due care and attention is a relatively lower ranking offense when compared to drunk driving or cell phone driving, it still is one of the biggest causes for accidents, and needs to be addressed with greater authority.

Why You Need A Good Radar Detector
Sep 30, 2009 More Saving
Have you ever had the experience of happily driving along, confident that your radar detector is on to alert you of cops on the look out for speeding motorists, only to be jolted out of your blissful enjoyment of the ride by being pulled over for speeding? The sad fact is that most of the radar detectors that are in the market right now are not all that they are touted to be. Further, cops now use new models of radar guns and that is the reason why your radar detector failed to do its job.
The police utilize radar guns that have digital signal processing (DSP) technology. DSP allows the radar guns to constantly be on just waiting to read a cars speed. This allows radar guns to measure the speed in less than four tenths of a second. You have absolutely no hope of stopping in time to prevent a speeding ticket.
These new radar guns are not only fast, they also have a lower power foot print. They use Ka band frequency and a very high bandwidth. This is five times higher than what was used by the earlier X band radar guns. Now you know why your radar detector is unable to spot these new radar guns.
Now, detection signals can work anywhere in the spectrum available, and a radar detector isn’t sure which will come at it. So it has to scan the entire length of possibilities, which takes time and reduces detection range, which means that they become less effective.
Another advantage the police have in regards to their radar guns is the guns ability to detect the highest speeding vehicle within its range. This is unlike the old radar guns that had to measure each cars speed individually. So no more hiding behind a larger vehicle to avoid detection of your speed.
As technology has developed things are getting worse for the average driver. More and more police are getting rid of their previous X band radar and replacing them with the new more efficient DSP technology radar. This ultimately means that your radar detection system is becoming less and less effective.
Its time to start researching the new improved radar detectors that are available. When doing this research it is important to know where most of your driving occurs, whether it is on the highway or in the city. City driving requires a radar detector that is able to filter out all of the other frequency information while still being able to detect police radar.
Whatever detector you choose, you’re going to have to live with the fact that detectors are going to have to continue evolving to match the continually evolving threat of radar guns, and that no one detector will keep you safe now, or forever.

How To Make A Special Reasons Argument
Sep 20, 2009 More Saving
If you have been accused of a motoring offence, then you will need to quickly prepare a defence before you get charged. Many areas of the law are almost open to interpretation and so the accusing side must complete every stage of the process correctly or it is likely that you will have grounds to contest the claim.
If you believe that the particular circumstances under which you committed the driving offence should exempt you from some or all of the punishment, then you can make a Special Reasons argument. These are most commonly used to avoid bans in drink driving cases, however they are sometimes used to avoid penalty points for other offences as well or driving through a red light.
When arguing a Special Reason, you are required to give evidence (under oath of course) that in the given circumstances it wouldn’t be fair to administer the penalty points. The most common case for people to argue Special Reasons is that it was an emergency, i.e. they were taking a badly injured passenger to A & E or were taking a woman who is having a baby to hospital and went a bit above the speed limit or ran a red light.
If the court deems that there were indeed Special Reasons in your circumstances, then you will not be issued any licence points. There aren’t any particular definitions of Special Reasons, however you will have to prove that your situation was one of the following:
1. A mitigating or extenuating circumstance
2. It must not amount in law to a defence to the allegation
3. It must be directly connected to the commission of the offence
4. It must be something appropriate that the Court ought to take into consideration when deciding what punishment to impose.
The opportunity to argue Special Reasons is contained within Section 34 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988.

Driving Without Insurance
Sep 17, 2009 More Saving
It is illegal to drive a motor vehicle without a valid insurance certificate covering you to use that vehicle at that time.
Due to the potential legal implications if you were to crash while driving an uninsured vehicle, this offence is taken very seriously by the Magistrates Court.
In order to be found guilty of driving without insurance, the Prosecutor only has to prove that you were driving the vehicle on a public road at the time in question and it is down to the defendant (you) to prove that you had insurance and you were allowed to be driving it. This is an unusually way of proceeding in court, but it is this way because it would be extremely time consuming and nearly impossible for the Prosecutor to prove that you were not insured because they would have to go to every insurance provider in the country and check that you aren’t insured with each of them. It is therefore your responsibility to prove that you did have insurance to be driving the vehicle at the time in question.
One of the things that catches most people out in relation to the no insurance offence is that you do not have to actually be driving the vehicle at the time of the alleged offence in order to be guilty. The offence is actually described as using the vehicle without insurance. Using a vehicle can mean “having use of” the vehicle. This means that if the vehicle is parked up on a public road outside your home for example (even if it is broken down) the Court will still find that you had the potential use of the vehicle and therefore if it is uninsured they will find you guilty of using the vehicle without insurance.
Another way in which many people get caught out with the no insurance law is when they believe that their fully comprehensive insurance policy covers them to drive other peoples cars with their permission. A lot of the time, fully comprehensive cover does not actually include this in the policy.
It is of paramount importance that you understand the terms of your insurance policy and you make sure each and every time you drive either your vehicle or someone else’s that you are actually insured.
