hey guys, need ur guys expertise :cry: Got a speeding(120 on 80) ticket several weeks ago on one of county highway,the situation was a bit complicated, but in short, we needed to get to airport in hurry, but later we found out one of county high way recommended on my GPS was closed, so I had to make a large circuit to avoid the closed highway, again we were in a hurry, later on, when I was overtaking a car, the cop got me. I was pulled over, the cop said I was 132 on 80..... but he gave me a ticket with 120 on 80. and said: "IF U EVER TRY TO FIGHT THIS TICKET, I will report your original speed". It was my fault and I just didn't want to get into trouble with that cop again, so I paid my fines and thought this was over. BUT, yesterday, I received a letter saying my license will be suspended for 30 days because of "novice driver escalating sanctions". (because I'm a G2 driver, and if G2 driver get a ticket carrys 4 or more demerits at one time, license will be suspended.) and What worries me most is the "insurance rate", 1:I know my premium will increase because of the speeding ticket, But will my premium get a second rise just because of the "novice driver escalating sanctions" suspension??? :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: (im with Belairdirect) , will this suspension considered as the same as other suspensions 2: My friend and the ticket-fighting agent told me that if insurance company renews contract annually, there is a chance that the insurance company will skip people's file. The thing is, because this is my first year driving a car, I'm not really familiar with how the renewal works, do I call them when the contract is over or they will call me? what's the best way to renew the contract without "give out" too much info. 3:if the insurance company find out, how much will the premium increase? (the ticket-fighting agent said about $50 more per month) 4:hopefully, I will get my G license before the renew, is any insurance company doesn't focus too much on speed ticket or suspension but the status of driver?(for BD, i think they do care about driving record, but it seems statefarm cares more about the status of the driver, like age, level of license...) any comment will be really appreciated guys!!!! ><

just saw this on Driver's Handbook "Note: If you are a novice driver and are convicted of violating any novice condition, an offence that is associated with 4 or more demerit points or receive a court-ordered suspension for an offence that would have resulted in 4 or more demerit points, you will receive the appropriate penalty and novice driver escalating sanction licence suspension. However, the demerit points will be recorded as zero on your record, and will not be counted towards the accumulated demerit point system." does this mean after suspension, my 4 demerit points will recorded 0?????????? OMG novice driver escalating sanctions are so weird

Got two very heavy tickets -- for failing to stop for a school bus, and for using a handheld device. Was running late in a morning rush traffic in Toronto and apparently passed a school bus on the opposite side w/o noticing its signal. A few meters after that I stopped behind the other cars waiting…
I recently received a ticket for proceeding contrary to sign at an intersection. While there are other issues with the offence (sign is not visible until 10ft from intersection, officer wrote wrong license plate number on ticket) my biggest question is about the sign itself.
I posted here a *while* back when I first got my speeding ticket, and I've been fighting it forever. Anyway, long story short - I went and had an appeal and both the prosecutor and the Judge agree that I have valid grounds to appeal on, but what we're arguing is whether the correct remedy is a…
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…
What is the requirement for stopping when a school bus is traveling down the roadway, initiates the flashing red lights while still moving but has not yet stopped? If a motorist is traveling through an intersection (through the free-flow approach, minor-street stop controlled) and an oncoming…
In 2005, the government passed legislation that enabled the introduction of variable speed limits at some point in the future. It didn't take effect right away, so it sat waiting for "proclamation by the Lieutenant Governor." Just by chance... I was reading the HTA earlier while browsing this…
I was on my way to work on a divided four lane highway. I was in the right hand lane following the flow of traffic. There was a slower car ahead of me and I wanted to change lanes and maintain my speed. When I looked in my left side mirror, I notice a red car going pretty fast in the passing…
So i got charged with Hand Held Device, just want to ask everyone if i could use this as my defence
It was midnight, I was dropping my fiance to pick up something on north bound Yonge st (near church) with my emergency lights on, Officer came and asked me to move along so i went up a few streets and…
