Kyla Lee joined Lynda Steele to talk about the recent viral video of a driver in Vancouver, driving down a flight of stairs at the Wall Centre in Vancouver. After the video went viral, Vancouver Police issued the driver a $368 ticket for driving without due care and attention. But is the ticket valid? Kyla Lee explains why the driver may have viable defences to the ticket itself.

Kyla Lee spoke with Jason Hewlett on Radio NL Monday Mornings to discuss why a driver who killed a cyclist in a dooring accident was only issued an $81 fine. Then, Kyla and Jason speak about the decision by the federal government not to release data from their internal studies on the  Abbot SoToxa.

Kyla Lee appeared on the Jill Bennett show recently to talk about the dooring death of a cyclist in Vancouver and the decision by police to issue an $81 ticket.

Kyla Lee appeared on the Jason Hewlett Show on RadioNL News in Kamloops to talk about a controversial Salmon Alm bylaw that would see panhandlers fined $50 if they do not quit asking for money on the street. Then, they speak about a Kamloops traffic court case involving a speeding driver who was given a higher penalty in Court and which was overturned on appeal due to unfairness. Tune in above and every Monday at 9:10 a.m. for more legal insight and analysis.

Vancouver impaired driving lawyer Kyla Lee appeared on the Charles Adler show last night to talk about the federal approval of the Abbott SoToxa, a drug testing device designed to detect THC in the system. However, the SoToxa suffers from a number of serious flaws, the most significant of which is the fact that it does not test for impairment, only the presence of THC.

Vancouver impaired driving lawyer Kyla Lee appeared on the Charles Adler show to discuss the issue of impaired canoeing. A recent conviction involving a man who was in a canoe accident led to the court having to interpret whether a person can get an impaired driving charge while in a canoe. What really bugs me about the decision, which did find that a canoe is a vessel and therefore an impaired driving charge is possible, is that there is nothing to distinguish a canoe from a bicycle. The same public safety risk exists, the same human-powered propulsion exists, and yet you cannot be criminally charged for impaired bicycling.
