Hi, So I had 15 points accumulate between the offence dates may 2016 - apr. 2018. Ive had none since. Ive been fighting them in court, which finalized jan 8 2019. Some points came off. We were careful to spread them out so I could avoid a suspension of accumulated points on my record. So I get suspended because of accumulation of 15 within two years, triggered by the system because of the offence dates. I had 9 points when my licence was suspended: Question 1: Does this make sense? It didn't make sense to the traffic fighting paralegals I retained to help me. Should it not be based on conviction dates, ie innocent until proven guilty etc? Second: I get a notice of outstanding licence requirements with a temporary licence attached. My suspension ends Feb 21 2019. I have to take eye, knowledge and road tests before Apr. 22 2019. I call the driver control center. I argue with them, saying it says no where in the HTA or on ontario.ca that I have to retake tests after a 30 day suspension. It's very clear regarding 1-3 years, 3-10 years suspended/invalid licences. The agent says it's an internal policy and isnt posted anywhere, then gives me an e-mail address that is a dead end. An important detail: At my 9-month interview they tested my eyesight and asked me questions. The end result was that they interviewer checked a box stating "No further intervention needed" as I was improving my driving. Being a driver, I was driving from Apr. 2018 until Jan 2019, with no further points. Another agent says the reviewing officer requested the tests. Question: Has anyone heard of this before? Does the demerit point system not address this at the 9-point interview? Ontario.ca is very clear that the time to retake tests would be issued at the 9-point interview. I work in my car. So the risk of having my licence cancelled because of a written or road test going wrong is extremely nervewracking. I don't see anywhere where it says this is normal for a 30 day suspension following demerit points. I see it for medical and criminal suspensions, and for licences invalid for years. Any insight would help me alot, as I plan to keep arguing this and have tried complaining to the ombusman, but well see what happens with that. Thanks Frank

Hi everyone, after 12 years of clean driving, I got my first ticket. I had stepped out to grab a bite and left my valid licence in my other pocket. I had an expired "valid photo ID" licence in my vehicle that I keep just in case I need photo ID. I gave the officer that one and I told him my valid…

this is ALL I got in terms of notes. No record of calibration before or after.
my question is, should I send a second request for the officer's notes from the day? or can I run with this and press the point that he didn't test the unit before or after?
Friend of mine was stopped and asked to blow into alcohol test meter just because he said he had 2 drinks earlier in the night (like 4,5 hours before being stopped). He wasn't behaving erratic or driving out of line. The officer said he noted him to pull behind few parked cars and then…
