The following excerpt is from Gauder v. British Columbia (Superintendent of Motor Vehicles), 2016 BCSC 142 (CanLII):

However, an adjudicator's assessment of credibility will be "manifestly flawed" if the adjudicator "affords a presumption of reliability to the police officer's report and requires the driver to essentially refute statements in that report": Marton v. British Columbia (Superintendent of Motor Vehicles), 2015 BCSC 422 at para. 8.
