I recently came home from vacation to find out that my license was suspended, for what to me seemed like no reason, and without warning. It turns out that a ticket that WAS paid for (and I have the transaction record on my credit card to prove I paid for it) showed up as "not paid". Due to me not "paying" the ticket, my license was suspended without prior notice. I just paid for the ticket that I had already paid for, again, and then paid the $150 to get my license back. Is this not a clerical error? I followed the procedures, and paid for my ticket after it was issued and within the time limit, so why am I being penalized for not paying for a ticket that I had paid for, as well as now being stuck - without a license, unable to drive and paying an additional $150 to get it back? How do I go about appealing this, because this is 100% clearly not my fault, and *EDIT* like this should NEVER happen. And side note, should the government/courthouse not send you a notification that you have unpaid fines/tickets before suspending your license? This all seems really shady and corrupt.

I hope I can paint the picture with the accuracy that the truth deserves. I have no intention of just beating a ticket.. but more like beating a really unfair ticket. You decide!

In June at 401 London and Wellington I got hit twice, speeding which I didn't realize I was doing and cell phone. The Officer made me open my purse and show him my phone. I was going to meet a Rep of my Company in Kitchener, he called I answered. WRONG! The Officer wasn't even nice. My record…
I'm going to preface this with a little concern....I know that at least one moderator on this forum is likely a co-worker of the officer who tagged me. I'm hoping that by being involved here, this moderator is already acting unbiased towards incidents he/she is not directly involved in. Also…
I received a ticket the other day that has my wrong name, wrong address and wrong set fine amount. Is the best thing to do default on it and hope it is quashed and if it isn't file for appeal as per London v. Young ?
Also for an incorrect offence or an offence "not known to law." as an example :
I got ticket for failing to stop at stop sign in Toronto. i heard that the police officer must see the stop line, if there is one, from where he was sitting. That is exactly my case, Is it a strong case? If so do i need a picture to show that there is a stop line and a picture to show that he could…
