Common Questions
Dangerous driving questions Richmond Hill clients often ask.
Can signal timing matter?
Yes. Signal timing, lane position, turning movement, pedestrian location, and traffic flow can be important.

It may. Employment, licensing, insurance, immigration, and travel concerns should be reviewed early.
Is every serious collision dangerous driving?
No. The Crown must prove the manner of driving was criminally dangerous in the circumstances.
