Cour municipale a marde qui ne raissonne plus : ticket d'exhaust

Isnt it a known fact that if your car is imported and there is a close equivalent to your car in north america, the court can use that model as a source of information for the type of exhaust that you should have on your vehicle?

yes but the series of motor is different so thats why its inconparable,besides the stock exhaust line is actually different from usdm models.
 
Ok now that I can type using a keyboard and not a cellphone I'll be clear why you lost, why you will lose and why anyone will continue to lose.

#1 This isn't criminal law. Just saying "YOU DON'T HAVE DOCUMENTS FROM TRANSPORT CANADA ABOUT MY CAR!!!! MY CAR WAS MADE IN JAPAN!!! YOU DON'T HAVE THE MANUFACTURER SPECIFICATIONS FOR MY MODEL!!!!" isn't enough. They don't have to be 100% right. They can be 51% right and they'll still win.



You're not doing your job properly as a defendant to prove YOU are the right one and either way, we all know you're wrong.

The judges base themselves on probability. If 95% of the time the judges/cops/prosecutors/experts interpretation of the law were right, then it's gonna take something more than your current arguments to prove you're right. They don't need to prove beyond ALL doubt that they are right, they've done it so many times that they're almost always considered right to the judges eyes. They've proven themselves time after time.

Furthermore, your car was sold here as the regular civics. The cops/prosecutors/experts have PROOF that MOST PROBABLY AND ALMOST CERTAINLY that the civic comes with a normal muffler. They don't need anything further than that. They don't need all the shit that you are crying about them not having.

It's your job to prove to the judge that the SIR came from the manufacturer with a freeflow exhaust or fartcan. Which you obviously didn't. Did you show exhaust diagrams of a fartcan on the SIR from Honda Japan? Probably not.

Therefore, you lost and you will lose again and again.

Civil law vs criminal law. Learn the differences. Civil law owned you and will own you again.






Face it. You didn't do a good job defending yourself if all you had we're the arguments you posted.

/thread.
my defence was more about asking them what was the estabised norm for my car so that they could prove on what they judged my exhaust to be illegal.

i dont think i would of gotten away with by telling them its a stock pipbomb... it was more about not being able to apply 258 as a defence that theyre proof had no comparable value.
anyway in this situation its more of a ' the judge will decide what the f'ck he wants anyway situation'

Yes the judge will decide what the fuck he wants anyway. Thats how ALL civil courts are technically. It fuckin sucks but it is what is.....

Once again the way you were going about it was wrong, only because your car is the pinnacle of street racing - the civic.

the cops/prosecutors/experts interpretation don't need to prove beyond ALL doubt that they are right, they've done it so many times that they're almost always considered right to the judges eyes. They've proven themselves time after time.

And again, your car was sold here as the regular civics under several models for yearssss. The cops/prosecutors/experts have PROOF that MOST PROBABLY AND ALMOST CERTAINLY that the civic comes with a normal muffler. They don't need anything further than that.

Like my quotes state it

La prépondérance signifie que l'existence d'un fait est plus probable que son inexistence, que le fait litigieux est non seulement possible, mais probable plutôt qu'improbable.

Once the judge has that, and that 100% of the civic sold in North American since 1972 have "classic" mufflers..... your cause is almost lost from the beginning.

If your car was something else, rarer to find here or not even sold here under another model, it would have been easier. But the civic is a lost cause.


I went to court twice for an exhaust and i won both times. It was maybe because my judge was nice/reasonable and not asshole like some others. But up until now I'm 4/5. Gone to court 5 times, won 4. Even the one I lost, if I appealed I could've won. I had a lot of stuff going with srt_mod for that one but I just let it go. I should have another court date coming up soon.



My car was a 1992 Honda Prelude. It's a lot easier to take the credibility away from the cop down to 0 with it since it's a rare car to find in decent condition and not destroyed with rust, mods and aftermarket exhausts/parts. Plus my car was a MIIIIINT condition example with not even surface rust on a single bolt. Which also gave me a plus. All I had we're wheels, suspension mods, 2-3 aesthetics changes and an exhaust.



All I had to do was ask him:

You found my car loud in comparison to what prelude? To one I heard at a car meet.
What model was it? I don't know.
When did you hear this prelude? 2-3 years ago.
So you're comparing the noise from my car to ONE single car you heard 2 to 3 years ago amongsts the hundreds of thousand you've heard since then? Yes....
You must have a really good memory.
How many people were around since it was a car meet? A lot.
Was it busy? We're there a lot of car? A lot of noise? Yes.
Was the sound of the car probably being overwhelmed with the noise of the surrounding and activity around you? I don't know...
How much mileage did it have? I don't know...
Did you see the motor? No...
So you don't know what motor it had? No...
I'm sure you are aware Honda motors are almost interchangeable between all cars. Therefore you know the owner of that prelude can replace his motor with a much lower end and basic motor from a Honda Accord if the person is short on money or doesn't want to invest in a performance motor of a prelude and needs the car running and thus making less noise? Maybe...
How many trims does the prelude have? 2
How many different motors do these trims have? 2
What motor did I have? The high end
How many different exhausts models were there for the different motors? There were different trims, but all of them had the same exhausts.

This is the part I loved the most. The judge asked him, so all of them had the same exhaust? He said yes. If you look at the serial number with Honda for the parts, they are the same along the entire Prelude models and interchangeable.

It was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard not to put the biggest "MOTHER FUCKER, IM GONNA RIDICULE YOU" smile on my face.

And then I said, I have no further questions your honor.

Went up to the stand.

Gave the judge, the cop, and the prosecutor a stack of papers all from Honda's part system with diagrams and serial numbers: 3 different header designs, 2 different exhaust designs, and 50 or so different part numbers, different for each exhaust system. Not a single exhaust was shared completely between trims/motors and parts were vastly different from the head of the motor to the tip of the exhaust.

I explained all of it.

I also explained there are 3 trims and 3 motors. Mine isn't the highest end like the cop stated but developed the most torque.

Everything the cop had said was wrong. Credibility went from low to zero.

I just had to say: "this cop clearly has no idea what hes talking about and I have no idea what I'm doing here. All the other stuff he has me in for is wrong as well. Here's my judgement from last time."

Passed him and the prosecutor my last judgment.

Judge: "Well I think I don't have any other choice but to acquit you."

PEACE OUT MOTHAFUCKAAAAS! Walked out like a boss.





Man I miss my car.....

Darkestfenix.... cest pas un litige civil ici. The state is pursuing to enforce a law (csr) and to obtain a punishment. That is no civil jurisdiction, but penal jurisdiction. Yes in some cases the burden of proff might not be exactly the same as the one required by criminal affaires, but it is much more close to it than to the burden of proof required in a civil case (beyond reasonnable doubt vs probability). Furthermore the state (police) is pursuing so they have to prove that an infraction to csr was commited; you dont have to prove that you are not guilty, but that your culpability cannot be legally established by the crown. Or in other words you dont have top proove that your exhaust is legal, you have to convince the judge that the police didnt proove that your exhaust is illegal.

Like my quotes state it





its all nice and i enjoyed your input on your experience with your exhaust tickets but there is something very major that differs your sitution from mine.

EVEN if i did have the stock and normal exhaust line from the motor in the car i am still liable to get stopped down on every road and harrased with a ticket. the cops that stopped me and gave me the ticket never really saw the exhaust from theyre angle of where they where and preceded to harras me with their shit when they simply saw the cAR

Even if i find the stock exhaust or construct a stock copycat of the exhaust i am deemed in court to have no way whatsoever off proving that it is the fabricants norm because they themselves have no IDEA AND DOCUMENTATION OF what is that norm.

from picture ive seen from the net the stock exhaust looks more like a 90-93 integra lookalike and even if i put something like it on the car i will still be accused of bullshit and will again be confronted too some moneythinking judge that only reasons on whats loud and sporty.

all this would of not happenend if transport canada would of put theyre pants on and taken the money off my taxes and put it at the right place when cars like this where entering the country.

The cop never really saw my exhaust from his angle either. I saw the cop from the corner of my eye, he looked at my car and then proceeded to start up his car, and when I got going, he pulled me over. Cops are like that nowadays... some pull us over from the look of our car and assume there will be a modded exhaust. When there is, they go on ahead and give us our ticket. It is the choice we make by driving these cars. The problem is (and I spoke to both the cops that I anally raped in court after winning) there are toooooooooo many kids with shitboxes that are illegal on so many levels that they just stop wtv to them seems to be a modded car.

If you find a stock exhaust or construct a copycat, install it, and see if you get harassed.

I bet my left nut you won't get an exhaust ticket if it's a "classic" muffler. And even if you did, there is so much to argue that you can't lose.


I understand your point of view, but once again, 99% of all hondas (not just the civic) we're sold with classic type of mufflers. The story ends there. The probability of your car having a freeflow-type muffler stock from the manufacturer is so improbable that the judge has no choice but to lean the other way. The probability that you are indeed illegal, is 99% and you have shown nothing that can prove otherwise.

Yeah the cops have no proof, but they have probability and proof honda doesn't sell cars that come stock with fartcans/freeflows!!!!

Its like an expert who comes and tells me the prelude comes with the same exhaust on all models, and I say "what's your proof?". The judge doesn't give a fuck. The other guy is the specialist, not me to the courts eyes. Do "I" have proof to say otherwise?

And the same mentality applies almost to all cops. it fucking sucks, but this is what it is. You have to find a way to work around it!!

But like I said, your case was a lost cause from the getgo.

It sucks to say, but my experience (and that of some people here as well) speaks otherwise.

I forget if it was carotman, srtmod or someone else who said it about CSR infractions and municipal courts regarding them, but:

You are guilty until proven innocent....

what you dont understand is that the law written like it is make its so that it cannot be illegal ... the only thing that makes them think its illegal is their presumption of it being illegal from the unwritten established norm and that cannot applied sincce the norm is non- existent. this is not the US darkest fenix its not up to me too find and establish there god dam norm and its only up too transport canada too decide what it is.

the norm for the car is establisehd by the origninal manufacturer and transport canada.not some shady suited specialist in a municipal court and not some crooked unfair judge and his shady municipal team.
your presumption that i should drop my pants and bow down to their shit is wrong. i am not going to conform to a law that states that every car should have a conformed and established exhaust system while at the same time that the state has taken my taxes and never gave a fuck too establis that same norm too wich it says that every car should have.

I dont disagree that the law doesn't make any sense. The difference between you and me is I know how to pick my battles. You're going up against a tank and wasting money, when I know there's no point.

The system as is, is very corrupt and it's just a money making machine run by monkeys who are nothing but a shadow of what a court really is.

If you want to keep spending money and get nowhere (because you won't be able to change the system since most of the general population really doesn't give a fuck about exhausts) go for it. But I know it's pointless.
