You need to go to the court and ask for your fine history.(unpaid)
Then ask for a print-out off all.(they may ask for some money to do this)
Then you need to get the forms (1 per ticket) to ask for more time.
I call it writing lines like back in school.
Come up with an amount that you can pay per month.(not maybe can pay: and pay it)
Now you go to see the JP and show him all the forms and tell him how you are now going to pay it off.(whatever you say do it)
They just really want the money coming in.
If they see you with a stack of forms be prepared to wait quite a while but they have to see you.
They have to sign all the forms but after about a week it is back to like when you first got the tickets.
It is just as quick to go back if you don't do what you agree too.

Re: I OWN $36,000 FOR UNPAID FINES
For Pete's sake STOP DRIVING. I can't imagine that you haven't spent a period in Jail for this already. Here a 10th drive suspend would net you between 6months and a year in jail.

Re: I OWN $36,000 FOR UNPAID FINES
I'm really surprised that a Judge hasn't thrown your sorry ass in jail yet.
Driving without Insurance ????? Driving while under suspension ????
You run the risk of having your driving privledges revoked either permanently or for a very long time.
Let alone if you get involved in a serious accident, you can wind up getting sued in criminal court and never get out of debt unless you skip the country.
Stay the hell off the roads please !

Re: I OWN $36,000 FOR UNPAID FINES
u dumb assess do really think they just slap my wrist and said good bye. Of corse i spent jail time first time was 2 month 2nd 4months 3rd 6month. They can lock me up as much as they want because it doesn't make or teach me a lesson i will still continue driving. I have abosoluting no speeding, red light, drunk driving, etc noting in that nature. I'm a very good driver so don't worry when im on the road, because im not a threat to any drivers out there .
If they throwing ppl in jail for unpaid fines, lets thorw all the people who are not paying there Visa bills, phone bills, etc this is ridiculous

fight stop sign
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?
Any help would be appreciated
Disobey stop sign, stop signs on both sides of intersection?
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…
After accident, the police gave me a Careless Driving ticket
I'm having a big issue right now.
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…
T-boned a limo - optical illusion
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.

Failure to stop. 136(1)(b)
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?
OOps! The police officer forgot to return my documents...
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.

Failing to stop for a school bus

If/when do I have to disclose my evidence for a trial?
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?
Thanks!
