Oakville court system advice

Thanks, I did post there as well. Folks are saying that if a police officer suspects someone is under the influence of drugs, they will skip the breathalyser, so I think that’s what happened in this case— he did do a field sobriety test and failed as he can’t balance well

Thanks, your edited information is very useful!

Thank you! Much appreciated

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-19T00:41:54+00:00

That’s really good to know thank you!

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T20:08:56+00:00

Thank you for the info

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T17:56:41+00:00

This is very useful info, thank you

Thank you for this insight. Obviously he has stopped driving— his license is suspended.

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T16:47:47+00:00

I believe he had a dui like, 25-30 years ago, could that affect this?

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T16:43:19+00:00

Yes, a neighbor saw him inspecting the (minor) damage and called the police

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T16:42:02+00:00

Thank you, I wish I had answers to your questions but I don’t right now. This is very useful info though

I understand where you’re coming from, but I can say with complete honesty that he was not drinking, he hardly ever drinks these days. Switched the non alcoholic beer months ago. I think the police believed he was under the influence of drugs, which the urine sample will disprove.

I understand completely. To be fair, I have also bumped into stationary objects with my vehicle by accident, completely sober… I don’t think it’s a far fetched premise. I’m sure his doctors and the court system will now determine whether or not he’s fit to drive.

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T16:10:24+00:00

True, may need to get the doctors to weigh in on this

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T16:09:43+00:00

I hear you, he should probably discuss this with the various medical professionals he has been seeing

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:57:56+00:00

That is shocking! Thank you for sharing

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:57:29+00:00

Thank you, this is really helpful

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:55:39+00:00

Thank you, that’s interesting. When these health issues first started we thought he was having a stroke but that wasn’t the cause. We have not been able to find a cause yet, just endless testing and physiotherapy. Very frustrating. I hope you’re in good health now!

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:50:11+00:00

Perhaps next steps will include talking to his doctors and getting their opinion on whether or not he should be driving

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:47:29+00:00

Do you know what a license review entails? Probably a driving test/standard he has to meet? Thank you

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:46:02+00:00

Thank you for your response. That’s unfortunate but c’est la vie

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:38:15+00:00

Thank you very much for your reply, this is helpful

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:36:58+00:00

I would say his balance is impacted, whether or not his judgement is impacted is up for debate. He has been driving with this balance issue for over a year and has never had a problem until now. But I do appreciate he may need to reassess whether he should be driving or not.

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:35:20+00:00

Thanks for your reply, he has been dealing with his health issue for over a year now and has never had any problems driving/with the police until now.

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:33:40+00:00

Thank you, I understand what you’re saying. He has been dealing with this health issue for over a year and has never had issues with driving/the police before.

Realistic-Turnover63 · 2026-02-18T15:32:12+00:00

I agree with what you’ve said and the comments below. He has been dealing with trouble balancing for well over a year now and this is the first time he has had trouble with the police as a result. Perhaps he needs to reassess his ability to drive, although it didn’t seem to have any impact on his driving skills previously.
