Hey this is the first time I got a ticket, so I'm not 100% sure where to start, thought I would do a post and do some research after as well. I was heading home from school and there was a red light at an intersection A & B where I did a right turn, after coming to a stop. Immediately I saw sirens go off and I was pulled over. Officer claimed I did not come to a full stop and just swung into the intersection, he claimed "I saw you slow down but you didn't stop" He gave me a $325 red light - fail to stop ticket with 3 demerit point penalty and left. He didn't mention anything about video from his dash cam. He handed me my ticket and told me to go to court before I said anything, claiming they might lower the fine or reduce the demerit points. The thing is though, on the ticket it says I committed the act of failing to stop at a red light at intersection C & B at 9:47PM, so it was a different intersection from the one he claimed I did not stop for. This intersection was further down street B (I was going westbound) so at 9:47PM I had not even reached intersection C & B. I'm not sure how I can prove this, since there are no witnesses? I was pulled over beside a nursery, which is before the intersection C & B. I will be going to arrange a court date tomorrow, but in the mean time is there anything I should read up on? Will the ticket be dismissed since it claims I committed an offence at a different intersection? Thanks for any advice!!

But technically isn't the ticket saying I am guilty of committing the act of running a red light, at the lights in the intersection C & B? I understand a rough location if it was a speeding ticket, such as 30km/h over near intersection C & B, but in this case I'm being charged for running the lights at that intersection?

I got a careless driving ticket and I was involved in quite a serious accident. I was driving at about 60 km/h arriving towards a stop sign. Unfortunately when I tried to stop, my shoes were sliding off from my foot as they did not have any strap and were perhaps oversized and slippery. I could…
I received a speeding ticket yesterday, and was hoping to get some insight as to how to deal with it here.
I was driving, and I seen an officer driving behind a couple of oncoming cars. I looked down at my speed, and seen that I was doing slightly over 100 (ie 102/103), so I put on the…

Hello, I am sure people are getting tired of asking about this hand held electronic device section, but I would like to know if a piece of paper is included in this description? I was ticketed just a few days ago for holding a gas station receipt in my hand to stop it from flapping in the breeze…
So i got stopped. He told me he stopped me because "you were squealing your tires back there, and then you were talking on your phone." I replied with a smirk that its a cadillac, i cant squeal the tires. Then he said "are you saying you werent talking on the phone? And i hesitated and just said…
I was driving with a passenger in my Cab, when I was pulled over. When the Officer approached the Cab, he asked if I had a good reason for not wearing my seat-belt. I stated to him, because I have a passenger, to which he responded with "Their is a National Seat Belt Campaign" on and with zero…
I was pulled over a couple days ago going down a steep incline on my way to Cobourg. In order to get up a hill in my vehicle, I have to go at least 90 or it gets stuck between gears and then when I was going down the hill I wasn't riding my brake or touching the gas, it just gained speed. When I…
