Got a ticket, but also got warnings - Can I fight it still?

Unread post by mezer »

I took off my seatbelt 200 meters before turning into a parking lot. Received a $110 ticket, 2 demerit points. Seems like a hefty charge for someone who knows the importance of wearing a seatbelt. I ALWAYS wear it, was just anxious to get out of my car, and took it off early. Problem is. He also gave me 2 warnings for plate stick obstruction, and plate sticker location. $225 each ticket. 1 question: If I try to fight this in court, will the officer then bring up the warnings he gave me previously, and will I be charged for those.

Fix the plate stuff and fight the ticket if you wish. The officer could have nailed you with all three tickets, but he chose not to.
