I was originally paying 186/month i got quotes ranging from 350/month and up Will this affect my insurance rates for 6 years? because its shown on my record for that long or 3 years because the ticket lasts that long on my record.

I believe any claims are 6 years and HTA tickets are 3 years from the date of conviction. If your rates hold steady it would be about a $2000 premium increase per year for 3 years hit but if you factor in the lost discounts you would have gotten it could be significantly more.

I believe it does but I would talk to your broker to confirm, they may also find ways to save you a few dollars here and there. The first minor conviction will not count against you in 18 months so you might save a bit of money, but what is going to crucify you is the driving under suspension conviction it usually means you will be paying around double. For the recent tickets did you even try to fight them or get them reduced? You should never blindly plead guilty or be found guilty by default because it means you miss out on the opportunity for a lesser charge. In the future, if you already have a conviction on your record and get another ticket for whatever reason I would try and delay the proceedings as long as possible so that convictions drop off your record faster than insurance can spot them.

When i was pulled over for having my license suspended (apparently their car beeped and notified them of something wrong) they pulled me over in my private parking lot and proceeded to write me two tickets. Not having insurance (my card was expired in my car) although i was up to date and then the driving while suspended. I saw the prosecutor before court and he waved the ticket for not having insurance after i showed him i was indeed covered during the time of the ticket. I also mentioned to the judge that i couldn't afford the fine because i wasn't working at the time and he literally said oh well sell your car then. My fine is paid in full now and my license is reinstated tomorrow -30th and i sitll have my car I think thats pretty decent? im not really sure what else they could have done. I did mention to him i was unaware of being suspended but that made zero difference. like i said so far my lowest quote has been 350 with a g2 and my high risk history Also im 30 years old

I got my g2 license last week and im going for my g license soon. I got a few errors and thought i could ask a few questions here. "Signalling too early" I've read 100 feet is adequate.. is it ok to brake first before signalling? im thinking thats why she may have marked me for that. i also got a mark for "late in slowing" Further reading online to prepare for my g license i've read that you have to be going 100 in the accelerating lane before merging onto the highway. What if there is a semi or just another car in front of you going 80 and you have no more acceleration lane left. What i would normally do is merge at 80 and go into the passing lane and pass the slower driver or just do 100. Normally i wouldn't care too much but i dont want to be docked any points and have to pay another 86 dollars to take the test over again. I also got a "turn too wide" on a right turn. Keep in mind there is 2-3 feet of snowbank protruding from the side of the road.. im not sure if she took that into account or not. Either way i passed but just looking for some tips. Thanks in advance for any help

1- Try opening a new thread for new questions. 2- This forum generally deals with issues for those charged under the HTA, I don't know how many here are familiar with the points structure for the driving test itself.

Well dear, I have joined Port Macquarie Driving School for improving my driving skills. You know their trainers are very professional and very supportive. I am happy that I have joined this school on reference of my sister.

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 not see the stop line from where he was sitting?
I got a ticket, Disobey stop sign, sec 136.1.a on dec 6th
I made a left in an intersection and was pulled over by a police officer in an unmarked car who had been sitting down the road. A classic fishing hole situation. I was genuinely surprised when he stopped me and told me I went through a stop sign without even slowing down. I know to shut up and be polite and take the ticket. I…
Yesterday morning, I rear-ended someone. I was going the speed limit. The sun was directly in front of me and it blinded my windshield and my eyes. At the same time, the person in front of me stopped/slowed down (also due to the sun). I started to slow down but didn't stop and I hit them since I couldn't see anything. I was not driving too close initially. I…
I was driving in the county at night and hit a limousine stretched out side ways across the road. The limo had its lights on and had side lighting as well. The police officer charged me with careless driving because it was "fully lit up".
It took me to the next day to figure out what had happened - what I remember made no sense. What I had run across was a "false visual reference" illusion.
I was on hwy 37 trying to make my girlfriends ganadmas mass and I live an hour away and I had an hour to get there so I was going fast but not 50 over untill some idiot got on my tail soo close that I was to concentrated on him that I kept going faster untill I got pulled over at 147 on an 80 km hwy.

Hello, got stopped today for rolling a stop sign. Ticket says failure to stop, but quotes hta 1361b.
Doesn't 1361b mean failure to yield?
Is this a fatal error? Or could it be amended at trial. How can I prepare a defence if I don't know if I'm defending the failure to stop or the failure to yield?
After he was providing me with a ticket for failure to obey to the stop sign (I am pretty sure I stopped but less than 3 seconds recommended by my driver ed. instructor), I know everybody say that..as an excuse.
Then he stopped me again to return the documents.
Any advice and feed back would be really appreciated.
Can you get evidence for whether someone had an advanced green at an intersection? My dad was making a right turn on a red (after stopping) into a plaza parking lot. He got hit by someone making a left turn from the opposite lane. The driver told the officer called to the collision that he had an advance green. My dad said he came out of nowhere which makes me…
So i was driving on Eglinton Avenue East near Rosemount Ave.
The school bus was on the the curb on the opposite side of the road while i was travelling on the middle lane of the three-laned Eglinton Avenue East (five lanes apart plus a raised median island seperating the traffic)
I could not see the school bus as my view of the bus was being obstructed by the cars in front of me and on my left hand…
Lots of good information on getting disclosure from the Crown here.
Now, I am just wondering if I will be relying upon evidence of my own at trial... do I have to voluntarily send this material to the Crown in a reasonable time before the trial, or only if they request disclosure from me?
This morning I had an exam for university. I was studying the entire night and i wanted to catch like maybe 1-2 hours of sleep before the exam so i went to sleep. I woke up like 5 hrs after and realize that I was about to miss my exam. I still could have made it so I asked my dad for his car since I was in a huge rush and he gave it to me.
I went on the highway and I was going at 135 km/h but…

Hi I have a couple questions so I'll explain my situation and any advice would be appreciated.
Can't remember exact date so lets call it some time in 2008 I got a fine for $5000.00 for driving without in insurance. I never paid the fine and in 2012 I was pulled over and the officer asked to see my license. Although I had it on me I figured it would be under suspension for the unpaid fine from…
Alright, so I did something really stupid the other day, I was driving down a country road and wanted to hit the curves so I passed 3 cars at once, inadvertently making it up to very much past 50 over (80 limit)... Much to my chagrin there was a cop coming in the opposite direction who immediately skidded on the gravel shoulder and who I thought was 100% going to turn around and pull me over,…
Anyone know how backed this courthouse is? I submitted my ticket for trial at the end of August, and still no letter. Im scared it got lost in the mail, can i call the courthouse and find out my courtdate? Or would i have to go in personally?
I recently received a ticket for failure to use low beams - while following - Ticket was issued Sec 168 (
- it was on the 401 and no one was within 500 meters of me, I was warning a oncoming vehicle that there was an officer hiding (which is not illegal or I could not find a law against it) it was a police vehicle travelling at very high rate of speed in the opposite direction with no lights on…
I received a warning letter from MTO for a 2pts ticket.What happened is that the police officer issued a "unsafe left turn" and then changed the ticket to "failed to signal" at the scene, but she submitted both tickets!!! And I !!!ONLY!!! received the latter ticket from her(I requested trial for "failed to signal"). I recently received notice from MTO that I'm convicted for "unsafe left turn".
Hello everyone! I was given a ticket for using a hand-held communication device while driving. It was 3 am, I was at a stop light and the cop saw me with the my phone in my hand. I told him i was just checking the time on it. I received the notes a few weeks ago ill copy them down below. Any help is appreciated although i believe there's no hope for me. The cop recorded me saying what phone i…
I got pulled over about 15 or so days ago the court till this date has not received the summons what is the legal time period that the court has to follow to accept the summons from the office court says its 15 days is the legal timeframe the officer has to serve it on the court
I requested for disclosure of information two months ago.
I received the radar manual after one month, but not others (including maintenance/calibration record of the radar, certificate of police training). On further pursuit, the prosecutor told me that he did not have them and he did not see why I needed these documents. He said he did not know where to get them when I asked.
Last Friday I was pulled over by an OPP motorcycle cop who informed me I was going 134. I was on the SB 404, I did see him parked under a bridge and when I passed him he was not on his bike.
I'm hoping to get some insight for a defense in this case.
I was in lane 1 and I had a car in front of me, and a car behind me, also there was a car speeding down Lane 3 passing everyone and moved quickly into…
