I received a 3-day suspension for blowing in the "warning" range a few months ago (I know, I was stupid, I learned from my mistake). Cop never filed the ticket. However, Service Ontario has a copy of my ticket receipt, which they used to issue me a temp license. What happens now? Can they actually enter it in the system themselves without the original coming from the cops? How can the ticket/charge/record be valid if the cop never entered it in the system and the original doesn't exist (only a receipt)? It's almost like buying an item, going back to the store to return it with your receipt, but the store has no record of the sale... Just wondering.

What do you mean by "ticket receipt"? I assume this is something they get from the police stating there is a 3-day suspension? MTO will not (can not) take any further action against you until you are actually found guilty and convicted of a charge. When an officer lays a charge, they have 7 days to file it with the court. If they don't, then the ticket is not valid because there is no ticket in the system. However they also have up to 6 months to re-issue a new ticket and serve you with the new ticket. So possibly the officer messed up and did not file it with the court or officer realized there was some kind of mistake on the ticket and knew it would get dropped anyways or officer was in a really good mood and just decided to be nice to you. But in any case, the MTO can NOT charge you or pursue any charges against. The officer would have to re-lay the charge against you himself.

By receipt, I meant the a carbon-copy of the original ticket the cop handed me when he issued me the ticket and suspension. Technically, when a ticket like this gets processed, first the license is suspended for 3 days. Then, it's an automatic $180 fine, and the incident remains on the driving record for 5 years. However, MTO confirmed that nothing has been entered by the police in the system (my record is currently clean). They're saying they want to find the copy of the ticket (not the original) to process the incident and charges. This is where I don't know the legality of it all. If the cop never enters or processes the incident/charges/suspension/fine/etc, then how can it be valid, even if a copy of the receipt exists somewhere. They can't even find the original. And it has now been 4 months.

I'm as confused as jsherk. What is this $180 fine you talk about ? You are issued the 3 day suspension roadside, that goes to the MTO and that's it. No conviction, no fine..... If Service Ontario knows about it the the paperwork was forwarded.

Former Ontario Police Officer. Advice will become less relevant as the time goes by !
Sorry for all the confusion. A roadside breathalyzer in Ontario can yield 3 results: ok, warning, or over. I got the "warning" (a BAC between 0.05 and 0.08), which is an automatic 3-day suspension. The cop takes your license, tows your car if you're not accompanied by someone, and issues a ticket that includes a fine of $180 & 5-yr probation. So he took my license and gave me the receipt of the ticket he wrote, he kept the original. To get my plastic license card back, I needed to go to a Service Ontario counter after 3 days, give them the ticket receipt, pay the fine. However, no one at Service Ontario or MTO sees that the cop had entered the incident in the system. Basically, there's a copy of a ticket, but the original doesn't exist, nor is anything entered in the system by the police... and still after 4 months. So my question is, legally, can they still charge me the $180 & the 5yr probabtion without the police actually having the incident officially entered in the system? I currently only have a temporary paper license. And BTW, you cannot contest a roadside breathalyzer "warning" result in Ontario. You can't plead the case in court. It's a final charge by the police.

Did they make you pay the $180 (they should not have)? Or did you have to pay the License Re-Instatement fee (more likely this is what you paid)? Again, MTO can not give you a 5-year suspension unless you are found guilty of the charge. If the officer did not enter the ticket in the system then you can not be found guilty and MTO can not suspend your license for 5 years. The $180 would be the fine for the ticket so that would not be MTO responsibility either. If you are convicted and did not pay the fine, then MTO can withold return of your license until the fine is payed. So the short answer to your question is NO the MTO has nothing to do with the fine or the 5-year suspension UNLESS you are convicted of the charge.

I haven't paid anything yet because nothing is in the system. I have only been issued a temporary licence. MTO said they want at least the copy of the ticket to charge me the $180, put me on 5yr probation, and reissue my full license. But I can't understand how they can charge me through only a receipt/copy, when there's no official charge from the police in the computer systems, nor official paper work. And I don't even know where the copy is. I had given it to Service Ontario for them to issue me a temporary.

Basically, I would wait until the temp license almost expires, and then go into a DIFFERENT MTO office and ask for a new license to be issued. If the officer did not file the ticket then you officially have not been charge and the MTO can not charge you $180 or give you 5-year probation.

First of all, what type of licence do you have? A G or a G2 and how old were you at the time? For a full G licenced driver who is over the age of 21, there is no "ticket" issued. Just the three day suspension for the warning.

MTO apparently escalated the issue, and a supervision will contact me on Monday. They're looking into policy & legal on how to proceed. The phone agent said they never encountered a case like this before. Nothing is in the system. There's no paper trail. Only the ticket copy/receipt, which is "somewhere". I'm in my 30s. I have a normal G-class license. I never had a ticket in Ontario before. Only one 8 years ago in Quebec. Believe me, he issued a ticket. Wrote it up and gave me a copy. On it, it was stated why he was issuing the ticket (warning stage on the breathalyzer), an immediate 3-day suspension, and a future $180 fine for when MTO/ServiceOntario issues a new plastic license card. The cop and Service Ontario clearly stated I had nothing do once I go get a temporary. The charges will be in the system, and I would receive the official paper work by mail... That was 4 months ago... Still nothing, still no paper trail, nothing in the MTO systems.

Well again if the officer did not file the ticket with the court within 7 days, then there is no ticket any more. I suppose if MTO chases down the officer, the officer could re-issue a new ticket. You basically want to hope they don't find officer!

That's not a ticket. That was the suspension notice. There is no fine associated to a three day suspension for a warning on a roadside for a full G driver over the age of 21. The $180 is the licence reinstatement fee to get a licence back after a suspension is served.

What Decatur said... There is NO 5-year suspension for what you got. You should be able to pay the $180 and get your license back. From http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/safety ... ving.shtml : In Ontario and the rest of Canada, the maximum legal BAC for fully licensed drivers is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood (0.08). Driving with BAC over 0.08 is a criminal offence. Warn range. In Ontario, your BAC does not have to be over the 0.08 legal limit to result in serious consequences. If you register a BAC from 0.05 to 0.08 (commonly referred to as the warn range), you will face provincial administrative penalties. If your BAC tests in the Warn Range (0.05 - 0.08): First time - 3-day roadside licence suspension (cannot be appealed) + $180 administrative monetary penalty Second time (within 5 years) - 7-day roadside licence suspension (cannot be appealed) + Mandatory alcohol education program + $180 administrative monetary penalty Third and subsequent times (within 5 years) - 30-day roadside licence suspension (cannot be appealed) + Mandatory alcohol treatment program + Six-month ignition interlock + $180 administrative monetary penalty

I can't lie, it's exactly what I'm praying for. I made a stupid mistake. More than the money, I would hate being on probation for 5-years and have it on my record. Then you're right. It must have been a suspension notice. The official fine (which is indeed the reinstatement fee) and paper work were supposed to arrive by mail, after my temporary was issued. Service Ontario was clear in the process: Police send the paper work to MTO... MTO charges me and sends me documentation by mail... I go back to Service Ontario, pay the reinstatement fee, new plastic is issued. In today's world of electronics, I can't understand how it never got into the system. In any case, let's see what MTO says next week. I can't see them charging me without any official police paper work. Something like this, especially with the 5-yr probation, can't just be applied as such. I'm not a legal expert, but MTO can't have the authority to charge me without official paper work by the police on the charges of the incident. A copy or a photocopy of a notice can't be the only thing they base themselves on, right? Unless, like jsherk said, they track down the cop and have him reissue the charges.

And there is no 5 year probation! Three day suspensions and others issued at roadside are usually directly entered into the MTO system by the police records personnel. If that wasn't done, the suspension is still valid, yet Mto isn't able to track it and apply the reinstatement fee because they have no record exists in their system that your licence was suspended. Best case is you don't have to pay the reinstatement fee. Worst case is that you just made MTO aware of a clerical error and you will have to dish out $180 and have the suspension listed on your driving record.

Reading the penalties, there is a 5 year period where if you get caught again then the penalty goes up for the second and thirid occurences. But as a side note, I believe this is an ADMINISTRATIVE penalty which means it will not show up on your driving record and will not affect your insurance.

That's certainly not probation. It's just an escalating sanction. They will show up on the records that police see. Otherwise they wouldnt know whether to issue the three day, seven day or 30 day. Correct, the adls suspensions for roadside warning will not affect you insurance rates.

Hi so I have a bizzare situation. Today I received a summons for "being the owner of a motor vehicle bearing Vehicle Identification Number ###, failed to submit the vehicle, equipment or drawn vehicle for inspection or tests as required by an officer" for a vehicle I previously owned. Apparently a violation of HTA 82(9).
The date of offense is June 15, the summons was issued on October 26th and I…
Hi, I need some help for the ticket of lmproper left turn.
When i drove my car from east to west, intending to make a left turn and stop in front of stop line. There was a car in front of me, which has turn on yellow light. The light was turning red and then I thought I cannot leave in the intersection and turned, an incoming car was runing the light and hit me. No one got hurt but both cars had…
Have a ticket in which the radar used was a Genesis VP Directional. I had downloaded the manual for a Genesis VP but I now realize that the unit is not the same so it is the wrong manual. My trial is very soon so I do not have time to ask for disclosure of the manual.
Does anyone have access to an electronic version of the manual for Genesis VP Directional?
I was pulled over today in the city of Oakville for going 75 in a 40 zone. However, I am 100 percent certain that I was going only 50 in the 40 zone. When I was pulled over, I was driving my Dad's car which I felt was the reason I was getting stopped since two teenagers driving a 2013 S Class. He asked does I know why I am being pulled over and I…
I really need help on fighting my 9 tickets i received from one police officer. Here is some background of what happened!
I was caught speeding 66km on a 40km (school zone) on January 29, 2010. I was driving my friend's car and turns out she didnt renew the validation on the vehicle and didnt leave the up to date insurance paper on the car.
Hey question that I think here's probably the best place to get the answer:
I was charged with a careless driving offence in oct, trail in early april, so as of right now my insurance record is 100% clean... except the officer did file an accident report at the scene where I was classified at fault due to it being PI (although very minor). The person I hit did not sue etc, so the insurance company…
Very much unintentionally passed a stopped bus, with sign and flashing lights. Didn't realize I had done it until I was at the end of the bus. I'll save you my sob story, but it was truly accidental. I'm generally very cautious and have a perfect driving record. Never been stopped.
While I realize if a cop had seen me that I would have gotten a ticket, there were none in sight. Though I may very…
I was recently pulled over for running a red and I wasnt able to find my wallet in the car at the time to hand over my license. I had a passport in the vehicle that he used. The wallet was in the vehicle, it just fell through the seats. (Tough to find a black leather wallet in a black/black leather truck at night).
The officer still wrote the tickets for both he signed the one ticket (failure to…
I was passing a vehicle that was going slow for me and there was an oncoming vehicle coming at me. I speed up to get around the person I was passing and the oncoming vehicle turns out to be a cop who turns around and tickets me for going 110km in a 80km zone. How does it work with passing a vehicle? Once I passed the vehicle I went back down to my original speed of just under 100. The officer…
I picked up a brand new (old stock) Fuzzbuster a while ago at auction (wopping $5!!) and I want to mount it on the dash of my old GTO as a cool accessory when I show it at car shows. But I'm not sure if it's legal or not.
Here's my thoughts:
- It is early 70's technology (x-band) so it won't detect modern police radar. That's assuming no police force uses the old x-band frequency.
Hi guys, I'm still a little in shock of getting my first traffic ticket...
On Monday afternoon, I was returning from Toronto to Ottawa on HW416, I was driving about 15 over 100 like always. Then a car came very close to me on the left lane and made me nervous, I speed up unintentionally to pass the car and change lane, but while doing that a police car pull out of the median. He was hiding in…
May i ask this question regarding transport trucks limited to 105 km/h. Moving road blocks or safety?
IMO it isnt speed that kills. I find transport trucks infact help keep the road going. With cars that choose to not move to the right and slow down the middle lane the trucks would try to pass in their passing lane therefore the slower traffic would move right.
Received a notice from the police that a motion is being put forward to adjourn upcoming trial date. Notice indicates that an officer has sworn an affidavit that the crucial witness cannot attend date trial is set for (we know there is a social engagement at 7:30 pm for the witness, trial time is 1:30 pm). This further delay is a big problem to my daughter's case. She is moving away to…
This is what happened. I was travelling west on a four lane city street that was very light with traffic. I was making a left hand turn into a wide driveway of a business. There was traffic lights about 100 yards past the driveway and were red for the east-west traffic. I was in the left lane with my signal on and there was no oncoming traffic due to the red light. I was slowed right down…
I was driving my families older car and got pulled over, and the police officer informed me my plate was dirty. He issued me a ticket of $110 for the 13(2) act and obstruct plate as the offense. He informed me that such a plate could be used to avoid red lights as well as 407 tolls, also that buying a new plate can help to lower the ticket if I fight the charge, and that he also took a picture…
I received a red light camera ticket. In the picture, you see an ambulance in front of me with flashing lights. I had moved to alleviate the traffic behind me for the emergency vehicles coming behind it.
Is this a possible defense, if so, does anyone know any good case law to justify this position?
what happens if they charge someone for driving at 151Km/hr in montreal and they put for trial, appear after some months and sadly lost the trial ?

I heard Ontario and Qubec share the information. So once the trial is over ( and when the file moved to ontario) will his car gets towed and licence get suspended for 7days (later to 30 days ) ? and he…
I got a notice in the mail that trial is set four weeks from today, so it's time to request disclosure. I have zero chance of getting an 11b since trial is less than two months after the offense date and the officer did not reduce the charge. I really want to try and create delays on the trial, to reduce the chance of the officer showing up on multiple occasions. Is there any known loop-holes…
This weekend my father was involved in an accident with a transit bus in Burlington, ON. After the police showed up he was charged with "Fail to obey stop sign" Sec. 136(1)(a). At this particular intersection there NO stop signs but there are traffic lights. There is construction going on there so one of the light posts is smaller.
Driving conditions were terribly wet and visibility was low.…
So my boyfriend and I recently started dating. I have a vehicle that was insured. Insurance cost too much and I found it was just as easy to walk to work due to how close it was. But I didn't want to get rid of my car just yet, plus I'm still making payments on it as well. When we moved into our appartment together, I had it towed to my parking spot out back.
I was making a left hand legal turn on a green light, a driver came through the lane I was supposed to be going into ran the red and hit me head on as I was turning into my lane. When the officer came he was telling me that I was racing and driving recklessly because apparently there was reports of street racing in the area. I was not charged on the scene for this but I'm scared i am going to be…
I got a ticket for failure to surrender insurance because I did not have my new insurance stubs with me, just a bunch of expired ones. My policy number has not changed, so I asked the officer to just run the policy number so I could prove that I was in fact insured. He said they don't have that ability, handed me the ticket and reminded me that my car could have been impounded.
So I'm in a bit of a pickle and would appreciate if someone could clarify something for me.
I'm less than a month away (test on April 6th) from getting my full G license, and got a speeding ticket recently. The ticket was for 49km/h over the posted limit of 100km/h on the 403 in Oakville/Halton region, but was reduced from the initial ~60km/h over.
