trying to work out how this will go, this AM, I was at an intersection 4 lane, extreme left, is a filter for left turn, 2 middle for straight ahead extreme right, filter for right turn, I was in the right lane, turning right, there was a filter light it was green, there was no pedestrians on the crosswalk, no traffic coming from the left as I went forward I had a clear view although it was dark, in the lane I was turning into was no traffic, as I turned into the lane and completing the turn. I left a jolt from my drivers side Pulled in, my car had damage to the front part of the door on the other car, not even a scratch (CRX - mines a coupe bmw) there was a "dent" the size of a loonie, but no paint loss that I could see The lane I was pulling into was a 2 lane road, if the driver was turning right into it, she had a lane, but she hit me pulling into my lane ? I do have dashcam, but it was corrupted, had sound but no video (just looks like horizontal bars) been like that for a few days apparently. Any thoughts on how this could go
trying to work out how this will go,
this AM, I was at an intersection 4 lane,
extreme left, is a filter for left turn, 2 middle for straight ahead
extreme right, filter for right turn,
I was in the right lane, turning right, there was a filter light it was green,
there was no pedestrians on the crosswalk, no traffic coming from the left
as I went forward I had a clear view although it was dark, in the lane I was turning into was no traffic, as I turned into the lane and completing the turn.
I left a jolt from my drivers side
Pulled in, my car had damage to the front part of the door
on the other car, not even a scratch (CRX - mines a coupe bmw) there was a "dent" the size of a loonie, but no paint loss that I could see
The lane I was pulling into was a 2 lane road, if the driver was turning right into it, she had a lane, but she hit me pulling into my lane ?
I do have dashcam, but it was corrupted, had sound but no video (just looks like horizontal bars) been like that for a few days apparently.

Didn't you have this same situation less than a year ago? If I'm understanding correctly, you made a right while another vehicle was making a left and instead of them staying in the left lane while completing their turn, they moved to the right and hit you? The issue is usually that most people here are looking to enter the plaza directly to the right so they immediately jump to the right lane instead of staying in the left, which is illegal. If that's the case, you're not at fault. Left turn, at intersection (6) Where a driver or operator of a vehicle intends to turn to the left into an intersecting highway, he or she shall, where the highway on which he or she is driving has marked lanes for traffic, approach the intersection within the left-hand lane provided for the use of traffic moving in the direction in which his or her vehicle is proceeding or, where it has no such marked lanes, by keeping immediately to the right of the centre line of the highway and he or she shall make the left turn by entering the intersection to the right of the centre line or its extension and by leaving the intersection in the left-hand lane provided for the use of traffic moving in the direction in which his or her vehicle is proceeding where the lane is marked or, where no such lane is marked, by passing immediately to the right of the centre line of the intersecting highway. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 141 (6). Right turn at intersection (2) Where a driver or operator of a vehicle intends to turn to the right into an intersecting highway, he or she shall, where the highway on which he or she is driving has marked lanes for traffic, approach the intersection within the right-hand lane or, where it has no such marked lanes, by keeping immediately to the left of the right curb or edge of the roadway and he or she shall make the right turn by entering the right-hand lane of the intersecting highway where the lane is marked or, where no such lane is marked, by keeping immediately to the left of the right curb or edge of the roadway being entered. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 141 (2).

Hey Bend, Sorry I'm not always here. YES sir, I was same junction, pretty same scenarion, Insurance after investigating, put me not at fault (for the above reasons), so while I didn't pay for excess, my carfax will ding me :( Funny, well not funny, the VERY next week, there was a major crash, same time, same place all emergency responders on scene, and the i/sec was blocked off, that is apparently a very dark and bad i/sec, lots of accidents there, especially at night. TBH I don't even think other driver had her lights on, I had come to a complete stop, and maybe she was in a blindspot or dunno: I avoid that i/sec like the plague, there is a side cut through a car park, or petrol station I use. ANY right turns I do now, regardless of where I am or right of way I stop and look very carefully, though NAF I'm going to have to take a BIG bullet, ont sure how much value I'll loose on trade-in... 5 grands worth of damage, insurance did a good job on the car. Maybe God saved me that day from the other one I saw, I mean both cars where wrecked and wreckage all over the i/sec Thanks for the reply Bend, your a star

I have been reading Fight Your Traffic Ticket site and have a couple of comments.
I was issued two tickets at the same time, one for invalid left turn (Hwy 7 in Markham and Swansea). Another one, because the officer did not like my copy of registration documents.
This happened in last year (2015) April. I was going to pick up my son from Queen's University (Kingston) after his exams, and I guess I was too excited and was caught speeding 36km. The cop didn't say anything to me, just asked for my registration etc. Came back and handed me the ticket and…
Asking for input on whether I should hire someone or go to court myself.
Situation:
Was on a 60 road with a bit of traffic. Construction on the two right lanes leaving just a left turn lane and the centre lane. It was a green light so I accelerated (also writing down on my statement that I…
I got ticketed for a 72 in a 50 zone that I actually thought was a 60 zone as it was less than a km before.
I had an aggressive driver on my bumper so after tapping my brakes a few time I accelerated to merge into a different lane which was when I got caught in a speed trap.
I'm laughing my a$$ off at the scales of injustice in this town... This is a crazy story!
I'm cycling from home to work on Oct. 3 & get struck while traveling through my green light by a jeep turning right at his red light at the corner of Hwy101 & Brunette Road (Hollinger Park)!…
I was in court last week and the crown and judge agreed on a joint submittion that I plea guilty to dangerious driving. The judge commended me on the work I have done to improve myself and stated that there would be no prohibition on my drivers licence. He gave me a fine and one years probation…
Got a ticket for failure to obey sign. Essentially went straight on a right turn lane when there was a traffic blitz going south from Markham Main st past Hwy 7 east.
I received my notice of trial for July 17th but I assumed this was going to be a first appearance or is this the actual trial…
I've posted at this forum before under a different username a while back, which I unfortunately can't remember, and at that time the people who replied back were extremely helpful and for that I'm grateful.
Last night I was leaving Toronto driving north on University just north of Queens…
In early March I was driving in the Yonge & Churchil area. An officer said I failed to stop at a stop sign and ticketed me 110+3 demerits. While getting my license etc. I have multiple photocopy of my car ownership in my car, and that I thought I handed him the copy with the validation…
Hi, I am from Ontraio, Canada. I was using my friends car for moving some stuff around and was stopped by police and could not produce insurance slip. Got $65 ticket and paid it thinking not to make fuss about it. I know I made a mistake by not contesting it more so given that it was my first…
