Re: Can I still get charged by OPP?

He can charge you based on what he observed at the time he talked to you and any witnesses. For a Provincial Offences charge (speeding, etc), they only have 6 months to charge you. For a criminal charge though, I think they can come along and charge you years after if they really wanted to. But the...

Re: Can I still get charged by OPP?

He can still charge you criminally but that's almost certainly not going to happen. Looks like he changed his mind. If he can still charge me, on what basis he is gonna do that, he did not give me any ticket or communicated to me or took my statement after the accident? and what could be the reason...

Re: Can I get charged by OPP on this?

I just called my insurance company and they told me the accident is at my fault. It does not matter even if my tire broke down because I lost control. Police have not sent them anything, no tickets nothing. I am assuming I am going to charged now and just guessing I am gonna charged for careless dr...

Re: Can I get charged by OPP on this?

Yes, they have 6 months to charge you. The 30 days only applies to the method they use to charge (something like indictable or not). I just called my insurance company and they told me the accident is at my fault. It does not matter even if my tire broke down because I lost control. Police have not...

Some One also told me OPP shall give Offence notice or ticket within 30 days from the date of accident. But they can charge later. Is it true?

Re: Can I get charged by OPP on this?

You will really have to wait another 5 months and see if the officer decides to charge you with something or not. However, the officer will need a witness as to whatever he charges you for. So if the truck driver or another witness can testify to you "driving carelessly" or "speeding...

Re: Can I get charged by OPP on this?

Glad you are okay. You could be charged for up to 6 months from the offence date so if they are going to charge you they have another 5 months to do so. If the insurance is considering this a not at fault accident due to tire failure you may not be charged at all. Perhaps your insurance company has...
