Amber light fight: Winnipeg man challenges traffic ticket over timing
WINNIPEG — A Winnipeg man fighting a traffic ticket says he couldn’t have safely stopped for a red light because the amber signal was too short.
James Aisaican-Chase, who is 71, pleaded not guilty after he was ticketed for running a red light in October 2015 at a city intersection with a camera.
The Crown has offered to drop the charge for compassionate reasons because Aisaican-Chase has terminal lung cancer.
But he says he wants to fight the ticket despite his health status.
