Driving Law with Kyla Lee: Episode 61

This week on the Driving Law Podcast, Paul Doroshenko and I discuss recent changes to ICBC’s insurance rates and how your driving record will impact them.

Next, we discuss a recent development at the BC Court of Appeal for electronic device distracted driving cases. This case may have significant impacts on the development in the law in this area, and it is one to listen to if you are wondering about cell phone offences.

Finally, Paul and I discuss a recently successful appeal in BC Supreme Court of a traffic ticket conviction. The case involved a man who was convicted of driving with alcohol in his body while under a license restriction not to have alcohol. The question was whether the evidence relied on by the trial judge was sufficient for a conviction.
