The Supreme Court of Canada has spoken — and it’s not the news we hoped for.
This week on Driving Law, Kyla and Paul break down the SCC’s new decisions in Goldson and related cases on the admissibility of breath-test standards, why the “trust us, we’re government” approach undermines fair trials, and what Justice Côté’s dissent could mean for future constitutional challenges.
And for the Ridiculous Driver of the Week: a man in Hamilton takes “take the bus” a little too literally — stealing a city bus and driving it safely along its route, picking up passengers along the way.
Stream Episode 428 for the full discussion and all the legal fallout.

Episode 427: Refusals, Ambulances, and a Tesla at IKEA
This week on Driving Law, Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko unpack a major refusal case out of B.C. that finally tests Saskatchewan’s landmark ruling on intent — does the Crown have to prove a driver meant to fail a breath test?
They also dive into a troubling Alberta decision on police eavesdropping in ambulances, what it means for medical privacy, and why passengers might want to tell officers to stay outside. Plus, a Nova Scotia case that narrows mandatory jail rules for impaired causing bodily harm, and the Ridiculous Driver of the Week: a Tesla that plowed through the front of the Richmond IKEA.
Listen now for smart legal insight, a few laughs, and an inside look at how driving law keeps evolving in Canada.
