Hi All - Just need someones advise. I had my summons yesterday. Last month I got 3 tickets, 1) No insurance. 2) No valid sticker on my plate. 3) fail to surrender permits. I showed up at the court, turns out they don't have my documents. The prosecutor told me that the 'officer didn't submit my tickets, and he has 6 months to contact you, if he don't your charges drops" and he also kept saying that if he hasn't submitted today chances are he wont. When my name was called, the clerk told the judge about my charges and that the officer didn't submit the tickets. The clerk stamped my ticket and wrote that I appeared. My questions are: 1) how much time I really have? 2) what are the chances that he will come back to me and I'll be called again in the court. 3) does that really mean that I never got those tickets? 4) would all my 3 of my tickets will be cancelled? I have learned my lesson and now driving with valid documents, and would suggest everyone do obey the law, its just not worth it to go through the headaches. Pls. if someone can give me advise I'd really appreciate it. Thks and be safe on the roads.

The limitation period for HTA offences is 6 months form the time of the offence. The limitation period for insurance offences under the CAIA is 2 years. During that time you can still be served a summons to appear in court on the charges. It's difficult to say whether you are likely to get them in the future, because there could be any number of explanations as to why there's a delay. If you don't get the tickets within the limitation period, you can consider the matter "dropped".

I just received a parking ticket for parking outside of the space, to me that is crazy because I was parked in the corner of the lot, was not blocking anyone or a through way, so I thought there is no harm. I've seen people park there all day and not get a ticket.

I was hoping to receive some advice on the unfortunate situation that I currently find myself in.

So i received my first speeding ticket...officer claimed I was doing 73 km/hr in a 50 zone. He did reduce it to 63 - should fight it? The ticket did not mention a cross road. Its just states N.B on Caledonia. I don't believe d points are affected but I'm worried about insurance.
Exactly a week ago today, I was caught going 135 in an 80, on Highway 3 near Windsor, Ontario. I know this is just completely idiotic and there hasn't been a minute since I was charged that I haven't been smacking myself for this. I'm very, very remorseful and just overall torn about…
I was making a left turn, didn't have headlights on and was putting on my seatbelt at a time. Really stupid thing to do, was very stressed out and just feel dumb about it. What am I facing, and what impact will it have on my insurance? On ticket it just says Careless driving, there are no details..
Late Saturday afternoon, December 1st, I entered the Shops at Don Mills with my vehicle and drove due East as I needed to make a quick deposit in the TD Bank. I made a left hand turn onto the side street and on the right side where I parked, there is a condo under construction with all the usual…
Hi, I just received a notice in the mail with pictures of my car going through a red light. Ticket is in my husband's name, as he is the car owner, but I drive this car. I'm guilty as can be... can't remember doing it, but apparently went right through intersection after light turned red. I…
