I actually just noticed that my set fine is $180 when the act says "is 30 kilometres per hour or more but less than 50 kilometres per hour over the speed limit, to a fine of $7 for each kilometre per hour that the motor vehicle was driven over the speed limit; and" which should be $210!! This is off of the e-laws website for the highway traffic act section 128, -- I read online the fine should be $6 under the Ontario Court of Justice... which is accurate, and what is the difference? Do I show and argue with the prosecutor, take it to the judge or not show for the trial - there are very mixed views on this! Pleaseeeeeeeeeee help :) JJ

The fine table found in the Act is what they can use at a trial to calculate your fine based on the speed you are convicted of. The other is the fine table for out of court settlements (tickets). With regards to your court date tomorrow, you will have an opportunity to speak with the prosecutor in the morning before your trial - tell them about your issue and see what they say. If they can't or won't help you out then you can ask the JP for an adjournment based on the fact that the crown hasn't provided disclosure items requested. Be prepared to explain why you are unable to proceed without those items.

Simon, Thanks for the quick answer... I am unclear of what you are telling me, if I have a fine of $180 for 30km/h over the limit, is that correct? So when the officer gives a ticket its based on the out of court amount ($6.00), but when sentenced in court it will be the HTA fine ($7.50)? Thanks, JJ

I got a speeding ticket on the 401 by Cornwall. The officer said I was going 140 initially then dropped it to 130 (for the record I don't believe for a second I was going 140, that's way faster than I would ever intentionally drive). I filled out the info on the back of the notice to request a…
I was recently charged with stunt driving on a 60kmh road. When I was pulled over, the officer told me I was going almost 100kmh (still 40kmh above the limit) but was charging me for stunt driving because I accelerated quickly from an intersection on an empty road (in a straight line). I know…

Are any non-domestic vehicles "pursuit-rated" in North America? Also have the Michigan State Police (this is relevant because apparently they have the most accepted selection/testing process) tested any of them to see if they meet their criteria? Just curious...
Ottawa, Canada (AHN) - Beginning Tuesday, or April Fool's Day 2008, fines on Quebec drivers caught overspeeding will be doubled. It is not only the money penalty that will go up, but also demerit points.
The new law, Bill 42, is similar to Ontario's street racing rule. It stipulates fines for…
A friend got a ticket Jan. 9th of this year for doing 110 kph in a 90 kph zone, so 20 over.
What should the set fine and total payable read?
It's confusing to me, as the prescribed fine under HTA s.128 is different than the set fine enumerated by the Chief Justice of the Ontario Court of Justice.
An OPP officer ticketed me claiming I was going 40km/h over the limit (140km/km) on my way home with a few friends on the 401. This is my first ever speeding offense. Although I am sure I was over the limit, I am almost certain that I was not going 40 over, more realistically closer to 30 over. The…
Yesterday night I was charged for stunt driving (excess over 50km/h) and I have a few inquiries. I'm sure you've all heard the same story, but the unmarked cop in an SUV was tailing me for a good 2-3 minutes as I was travelling 120~135 km/h. Then as he came close I decided to boot it up…
I had a speeding ticket in May 2013 which brought me to 9 demerit points out of 15. I received a letter and had to attend an interview. Due to a history of speeding tickets and a previous interview a few years prior, the interviewer decided to put me on zero tolerance for a year. Meaning if I…
