Havent paid any fees yet and still have time to do so. Because of my work there is an absolute need to use the car for at least another month plus I'm getting my G license test in 2 weeks..anyway to delay the suspension? Thanks! I lost 2 points two years ago for unsafe right turn and now 4 points for speeding, totaled 6 points. Which I SHOULD be called to an interview to explain my situation and why I should not be suspended. But no...all I got was a suspension letter plus fees to pay.

As a novice driver, you should be aware of the Novice driver escalating sanctions. Any conviction that carries 4 or more demerit points results in an automatic 30 day suspension. There is no interview.

Unfortunatly, there is no way to delay it. What was the charge for? You said speeding, but did not say if it was Stunt Driving reduced to 49 over, or you just flat out lost at trial for a 30-49 over. Either way, the only way for it not to get the suspension is to win at trial, which you were unable to do. The suspension starts immediately, and does not finish until 30 days after you surrender your license. I figured that out the hard way when my brother got caught for driving under suspension. He got the Novice Sanctions suspension, but never surrendered his license. He was borrowing my car 6 months later, when he got stopped and they impounded it since his license was still suspended. So make sure you surrender it to the ministry (Take it in to a Service Ontario).

@JSherk, I think the OP is getting confused with the Ministry Interview and the Novice Driver Escalating Sanctions. With the Ministry interview, you will have to go in and plea why your license shouldn't be suspended (6-9 points for G1/G2, M1/M2, 9-14 for G/M), where as with the Novice Driver Escalating Sanctions, it's an immediate suspension. On the bright side, after the 30 day suspension, the 4 points will come off your record.

Just to touch on what JSherk posted. Make sure you check your mail for notices from the ministry. In the case of my brother in law, he surrendered his licence thinking the suspension started that day, when in fact the the MTO didn't begin the suspension until 6 days afterwards. He expected to be able to regain his driving privilege on Feb 22 , instead it happened to be Feb 28. Not sure if this is a mistake by MTO or just a delay, but always check the dates that your suspension was effective.

Surrender your license ASAP to get the 30 days over with.

Hi everyone. I'm asking for a friend who has a question of interpretation.
He was ticketed for using a hand-held device. He contends that he was acting within the exemption provided under Subsection 14 (1) of O. Reg. 366/09, which reads as follows (emphasis added):
Hey guys i just wanted to know what speeds you see others do on the roads on a regular basis. As we all know no body drives 100 km. It seems they only hit that speed twice once on the way up and once on the way down.
it seems the De Facto limit on the 401 is about 120-130. But lately i dont know if…
On June 10, 2017, I was pulled over by an OPP on the 403 heading WB and told I registered 136km/hr. I kept chit chat to a minimum and took my ticket and went on with my day. I later requested my disclosure and did not receive it until a week before my Oct. 27 court date, and so I had my date…
Anyone know any more information? Apparently kathleen wynne mentioned trying to introduce legislation after more than 20 years of no speed cameras. My guess is that it wont happen, since they've tried before many times to bring it back after it was abolished.
The other day I was given a ticket for speeding 119 in a 90, on highway 17 near Marathon, ON (Speeding ticket capital of the universe, BTW). The officer claims to have "clocked" me using the vehicle mounted radar at 121 KMH and dropped it (presumably to lower fine and demerits).
I posted this in the 3 Demerit Section and haven't received any
responses.
I received a failure to stop at an amber light ticket on April 17, 2009. At my First Attendance Meeting I asked to read the police officer's notes and remember thinking how ridiculous they were and the difficulty…
I was on the right side of the road going straight when a pedestrian waved down the taxi driver in the lane next to me. He pulled over to the right without any notice or signalling and hit me with the side of his car.
There were many witnesses but I immediately had a concussion and did not think of…
My mother was driving EB on a 4 lane street (2 lanes EB, 2 lanes WB).
She was in the left hand lane and started a left hand turn so as to enter a side street, crossing WB traffic. There was NO intersection. She hit a cyclist who was heading WB. Police where called but none showed up. My…
If the speed limit is 50, and you do 100+, not only do you get 6 points. Your car gets impounded for a week, and your license suspended for 7 days, along with a hefty fine of at least $2000. The penalty is actually the same as for racing. The law came in effect on October 1, 2007. Remember -…
I was driving westbound on Hwy. 8 earlier this month in North Dumfries Township, approaching the Cambridge city limits. The weather was clear and the roads were dry. I noticed a vehicle on the shoulder on my side of the road, pointing towards me. This didn't concern me right away, as it is a rural…
