Expired plate sticker ticket, but my vehicle is parked
Bought the sticker this morning (Current sticker is expired) and left it clearly visible in the dash board for the day. Had to wait until I got home this evening to remove the plate covers and put on the sticker properly. I was given a ticket while the car sat for the day. We did not drive the car because of the expired sticker, yet we get a ticket when the car is parked?? This does not seem fair.
Any advice or similar experiences?

Without further details, I don't think we can help.
What kind of ticket did you get?
Was it placed on the vehicle or served to you?
What was the offence listed on the ticket?
Re: Expired plate sticker ticket, but my vehicle is parked
If you were parked on the road parking enforcement now give tickets for expired plates. You are required to have valid plates to park on the road, some cities you need valid plates for cars on private property.
FYI plate covers are also illegal.

Just lie and said your not sure why you go the ticket and that the sticker was on there.
As long as your receipt has a time stamp BEFORE the ticket, they'll cancel it

Please refrain from giving people advice to lie. If this ends up in court the penalty for perjury is far greater than the face value of the ticket.
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…
Hi,
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.
Wh…
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…
Hi Guys,
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…
