⚖️ "It's all about what's more likely than not!"

In our recent Know Your Rights episode, we explain the crucial difference in legal standards between civil and criminal cases.

In civil proceedings, courts only need to determine what's more likely than not (51% certainty) compared to the "beyond reasonable doubt" standard in criminal cases.

🎧 Listen as our experts discuss how witness credibility, especially from law enforcement officers in traffic cases, often carries significant weight in civil proceedings.

🏍️ "Experience doesn't equal skill."

In recent latest Know Your Rights episode, we address a concerning trend of older riders buying motorcycles and getting into serious accidents.

Toronto has seen multiple fatalities involving financially-capable but unskilled motorcycle enthusiasts.

🎧 Our legal and safety experts explain how aging affects crucial riding abilities like reaction time and physical strength - factors that matter much more on two wheels than in a car.

🚨 "Refusing a breathalyzer?

Think again!"

In our recent Know Your Rights episode, legal experts reveal how refusing a breathalyzer test actually makes conviction easier by eliminating the need for toxicologist testimony.

Despite common misconceptions, refusal leads to immediate license suspension and vehicle impoundment—the same consequences as failing the test.

🎧 Listen as our experts explain why this strategy often backfires, preventing defendants from contesting charges in court.

Get the facts before making a decision that could seriously impact your future!

💰 "The facility is insurance purgatory!"

In our recent Know Your Rights episode, we reveal the harsh reality for drivers with multiple convictions.

Insurance companies can legally place high-risk drivers in "facility" - a costly insurance pool that can charge up to $10,000 monthly for coverage.

🎧 Listen as our experts explain why insurance companies must offer coverage to these drivers but aren't required to make it affordable - creating a financial nightmare for those with poor driving records.

🚨 "You can't say no to a sobriety test!"

In our recent Know Your Rights episode, we address the common misconception about roadside sobriety tests.

When a driver protests they haven't been drinking and don't want to "waste time" with the test, our legal expert delivers the crucial truth: these tests aren't optional when an officer has reasonable suspicion.

🎧 Listen as we explain how refusal to comply with a roadside sobriety test when requested by law enforcement can result in serious legal consequences - regardless of whether you've been drinking or not.

Real candles might look spooky, but they’re also a serious fire risk, especially in dry fall weather. 🔥

Use battery-operated candles or LED lights instead for a safe (and still eerie) glow.

They’re inexpensive, reusable, and just as festive. Keep the fright in the costumes, not your front yard! 🎃

Decorations are fun—lawsuits are not. 👀

Make sure walkways are clear, especially if it’s icy. Keep decorations off stairs and away from steps to prevent tripping hazards.

Remember: if a child or guest gets hurt because of your setup, you could be liable.

Keep it festive and safe this Halloween! 🏡💀
