Supreme Court Takes Refusal Case, BC Dash Cam Law & School Bus Stunt Driving | Driving Law Ep. 454

In Episode 454 of Driving Law, Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko discuss the Supreme Court of Canada granting leave in Emeruwa, a Saskatchewan impaired driving refusal case that could clarify what the Crown must prove when a driver says they tried their best to provide a breath sample. They also break down BC’s new commercial vehicle dash cam legislation, including what it may mean for truck drivers, fleet operators, police investigations, privacy rights, and future accident evidence. Kyla and Paul also touch on misinformation around Aboriginal title and private property, and why refusing leave to appeal does not mean the Supreme Court of Canada has endorsed a lower court decision. Finally, the Ridiculous Driver of the Week features an Ontario school bus driver allegedly caught driving 100 km/h in a 50 km/h zone with children on board.
