Police stopped Tejveer Parmar after clocking his speed at 81 km/h on Kittson Parkway just after 1 p.m. on May 9, 2018. The speed limit on the wide road is 50 km/h, though court documents said drivers "routinely" speed down the stretch. Supreme Court Justice Catherine Murray accepted Parmar's defence of necessity. The justice also found the original JJP "interrupted Mr. Parmar continually throughout his evidence" during the traffic court hearing. "The JJP failed to consider the defence proffered by Mr. Parmar, namely that he had sped up in order to drive safely," Murray said.
