I'm looking for some advice with regards to my shiny new ticket. I was riding a bicycle and rolled through a stop sign a bit too fast. I understand I should be making a full stop like a motor vehicle, but in practicality it is much more difficult to do on a bicycle, but I digress... I've done some quick research and it appears this ticket does NOT count against my driving record so long as the ticket clearly indicates I was driving a bicycle. My question is regards to what defines clearly labeled (and I have a hunch that if I'm not sure, then it is no clearly labeled). The ticket does not clearly identify that I was riding a bicycle (it does not say "bicycle" anywhere). The plate number is scratched through and the CVOR No. is left blank. However, the thing that worries me, is that the "Motor Vehicle Involved - [] N/N" box is empty. As I read it, the officer should have checked this box. Does this clearly designate that I was on a bicycle so that MTO will not receive information regarding this ticket? Thanks in advance for your input.

The plate # being scratched through should be enough. Anyway... if you really wanted to push the issue, you could file for an early resolution with the Prosecutor just to be sure.

I'm sure you are right. Turns out I have an opportunity to duck out of work this morning and handle this, so I'll go for early resolution to make sure this goes the right way, and maybe get a reduced fine. Thanks for the advice!

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…
