Now another situation people...say you were turning off a roadway, and clipped a pedestrian who was walking on the sidewalk? Could you be charged under the HTA as you were leaving a roadway to a private property? Instead of like on this case leaving a private property onto a roadway. Thanks in…
Hello Folks,
I am at it again helping someone fight a ticket, this time in London. I have a few questions dealing with the disclosure request.
The prosecutors here seem to have gotten smart to the usual tactics. They now include a whole page (instead of the 2" tear-off slip) with one side for filling…
My wife had an auto accident back in May. It is gradually being dealt with by our insurance company ( by the broker actually). My question is about the legal power of the insurance code OAP1. Evidently this set of rules is the Ten Commandments for the insurance companies and the adjustors seem to…

So today I got my first speeding ticket from going 80 km/h in a 50 zone, reduced to 70. I have been in an accident before so my insurance rate is already pretty high, yet I don't really handle my own insurance as I am the secondary driver on my family car. I'm also 20 and still have my G2, which…

Hi all,
I received a stunt driving ticket earlier in the year (171 km/h in a 100 km/h zone) and attended my summons earlier this week, where I received the disclosure.
I set a meeting for an early resolution for this Friday (March 16th, 2018). Would any of you be able to help me review my disclosure…
Hi there,
I was curious if there is any way that demerit points can be reduced or taken off of one's record after the tickets have been paid. I know in Alberta one can take a 'safe driving course' after a certain amount of time with a clean record and get demerit points taken off. Is there any such…

Re: How to file a ticket and request trial during COVID?
The Ontario government extended their Declaration of Emergency until June 2, 2020. During such period all limitation periods are suspended. Of course, the Declaration may be extended again so you need to keep updating yourself on such news.
What that means is that you don't need to do anything until June 2/20---that's when your 15 days will begin so you can choose how you wish to handle your ticket.
You can read the court directives here.
Re: How to file a ticket and request trial during COVID?

Thank you for the reply, really appreciate it 
Re: How to file a ticket and request trial during COVID?

Re: How to file a ticket and request trial during COVID?
The Ontario government extended the state of emergency until June 30, 2020. They haven't updated their websites, including their e-laws site, but you can read the Legislature's standing order here to rely on. That means the limitation periods are also extended. In these crazy times, its really hard to keep up with all the changes, especially when they don't update their own websites!
