I had two plates displayed on my vehicle, one on the front and one on the rear of the vehicle. I don't believe that I had violated the HTA. The officer pulled me over and gave me a ticket for failing to display two plates, stated section 7 (1) (b). He advised me that the front plate should be attached to the front bumper of the vehicle, and NOT to the front windshield. I looked everywhere and I can't find where in the HTA states that the license plate has to be attached to the front bumper! If you know where I can find that please inform me of the exact section, and sub-section, and the URL to it please. Please don't tell me that the front of the vehicle means ONLY the bumper, the windshield could also be considered the front! If it does NOT state that it has to be on the "bumper" then technically it doesn't have to be. Thanks so much.

It wont state bumper. It'll say front and rear. The front or rear may not be the bumper depending on obstructions (guards, racks, spare tires), it might be your tailgate, or even the portion of a trunk that extends to the rear. That is why it doesn't say bumper. REGULATION 628 9. (3) The number plates for a motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle or a motor assisted bicycle, shall be attached to and exposed in a conspicuous position on the front and rear of the motor vehicle. R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 628, s. 9 (3). It also says it must be in a conspicuous position. If it's sitting on your dash angled, it probably wouldn't be considered a conspicuous position. Your plate is immediately visible to almost no one driving unless they went out of their way to view it or they just happen to be sitting in a vehicle higher than yours. Also, plates can't be obstructed. If your plate is sitting on your dash, it's obstructed by the glass.

Hi everyone. I'm asking for a friend who has a question of interpretation.
He was ticketed for using a hand-held device. He contends that he was acting within the exemption provided under Subsection 14 (1) of O. Reg. 366/09, which reads as follows (emphasis added):
Hey guys i just wanted to know what speeds you see others do on the roads on a regular basis. As we all know no body drives 100 km. It seems they only hit that speed twice once on the way up and once on the way down.
it seems the De Facto limit on the 401 is about 120-130. But lately i dont know if…
On June 10, 2017, I was pulled over by an OPP on the 403 heading WB and told I registered 136km/hr. I kept chit chat to a minimum and took my ticket and went on with my day. I later requested my disclosure and did not receive it until a week before my Oct. 27 court date, and so I had my date…
Anyone know any more information? Apparently kathleen wynne mentioned trying to introduce legislation after more than 20 years of no speed cameras. My guess is that it wont happen, since they've tried before many times to bring it back after it was abolished.
The other day I was given a ticket for speeding 119 in a 90, on highway 17 near Marathon, ON (Speeding ticket capital of the universe, BTW). The officer claims to have "clocked" me using the vehicle mounted radar at 121 KMH and dropped it (presumably to lower fine and demerits).
I posted this in the 3 Demerit Section and haven't received any
responses.
I received a failure to stop at an amber light ticket on April 17, 2009. At my First Attendance Meeting I asked to read the police officer's notes and remember thinking how ridiculous they were and the difficulty…
I was on the right side of the road going straight when a pedestrian waved down the taxi driver in the lane next to me. He pulled over to the right without any notice or signalling and hit me with the side of his car.
There were many witnesses but I immediately had a concussion and did not think of…
My mother was driving EB on a 4 lane street (2 lanes EB, 2 lanes WB).
She was in the left hand lane and started a left hand turn so as to enter a side street, crossing WB traffic. There was NO intersection. She hit a cyclist who was heading WB. Police where called but none showed up. My…
If the speed limit is 50, and you do 100+, not only do you get 6 points. Your car gets impounded for a week, and your license suspended for 7 days, along with a hefty fine of at least $2000. The penalty is actually the same as for racing. The law came in effect on October 1, 2007. Remember -…
I was driving westbound on Hwy. 8 earlier this month in North Dumfries Township, approaching the Cambridge city limits. The weather was clear and the roads were dry. I noticed a vehicle on the shoulder on my side of the road, pointing towards me. This didn't concern me right away, as it is a rural…
