What is the test for failing to bring a motor vehicle to a complete stop?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from R. v. Emery, 2012 ONCJ 402 (CanLII):
[69] Based on the second prong of the W.(D.) principles, as interpreted by Charron J. in Regina v. Dinardo, supra., I find that the prosecution has failed to meet its onus of proving all of the essential elements of the actus reus of the subject offence, beyond a reasonable doubt. In reaching this conclusion, I have determined that the totality of the evidence in this proceeding has failed to establish beyond a reasonable doubt, that at the material time and place the defendant failed to bring his motor vehicle to a complete stop in the manner prescribed by paragraph 136(1)(a) of the Act.
