Hello - yesterday I pulled over for driving with suspended license for a 3rd time. The original sentence was because of unpaid fines not DUI. I have paid all my fines and do not owe anything to MTO. I have attended all my court dates on time. What options do I have now? I will have to take the hit and might (probably will) get incarcerated, fines, and suspended license again IF I plead guilty on the first visit to court. I am leaning on doing this as this is all my fault. I had no excuse being on the road with a suspended license. In reading other threads, I can -requesting leniency from the JP during sentencing -work out some kind of deal or even avoid jail -If jail is required, an intermittent weekend sentence may even be possible which would allow you to keep working. So the question remains, what other options do I have? Should I just plead guilty or fight it? Should I obtain legal aid/advise/representation? Kind Regards, Andrew

Since jail time is a real possibility I would hire a paralegal if you can at all afford it. They know the system and will best be able to tell you whether you have a case to fight the charges or whether they might be able to work out a deal that will keep you from getting locked up.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond. I am in a bit of a predicament. I think I might need representation. Has anyone engaged Ben (xPolice) to represent them? His office is right beside the burlington courthouse.

I have a lot of issues with the idea that speed measuring devices like radar and lidar guns are using computer generated simulations to test themselves that they are working properly. The manufacturer is making a claim that a device can test itself. Where's the proof that it works?
