Hello . I just need info I guess I have never had a licences but have gotten a lot of fines for driving and stuff from a couple different cities. I'm just wondering if I have to go to each city to pay the fines or is there a way to get them all in one spot so I can start to pay them off. Any advice would help please and thank you

Re: Need help
Can you be more specific please...
You said "you guess" you never had a licence... what does that mean?
What is "a lot" of fines?
What are these fines for?
Are the different cities all in Ontario or another province or USA?
Re: Need help
I mean I guess I need info lol the fines are all from Ontario the cities are about an hour away from each other. And the fines are I think about 3 or 4 are driving with out a licence 2 for no insurance 3 for invalid plates and 1 for running a red light and speeding they all together equal out to be around 4 thousand
Re: Need help
If you previously had a license they would probably show up at the MTO against your license and you could just pay it there, but if you have never had a license then that does not help you.
You will probably have to call each city and confirm the amount owing and how you can pay them. Most fines and tickets can be paid online now. Alternatively they would probably accept a cheque in the mail too.

Re: Need help
No Insurance is a minimum $5000 each charge. X 2 will equal $10,000.
Drive - No License is a $260 charge. X "3 or 4" will equal $780 or $1040. Lets go with $780 for arguments sake.
For Invalid Plates, I'm going to assume its "Use Plates not Authorized for Vehicle". That's $140 per offense. X 3 would equal $420.
Running a red light is $325. Speeding is determined on your speed, so I wouldn't know how much that would be. But for arguments sake, lets just say 15 over = $37.50
You are looking at a grand total of about $11,562.50. Don't really know where you got $4000 from. Also, Don't quote me of this, but I think if you get caught Driving without a license, they can prevent you from acquiring a license for a period of time.
If all this is true, May I suggest getting a Metropass, because even if you manage to get a license, insurance would be hard to find. I wonder if facility insurance will even insure you.
I hope you learned your lesson, unless you are a troll.
Re: Need help
Don't go to MTO or Service Ontario as suggested. Go to your local Provincial Offences court with identification and ask them. They will have the total from around the Province and then you can look to see if you can start up a payment plan or some sort.
If you've never had a drivers licence, a licence number will have been created for you by the MTO after you received your first ticket. The DL number should have been used in all of your convictions since that date.
Re: Need help
5000 if you don't go to court.. Both times I went to court and got them down to 500 each the first one was about ten years ago and the last one was about 6 months ago. And yea they gave me a licence number the last time on the paper

Also not sure what a troll is..

I find it very hard to believe you ended up with a $500 fine for a second offence.

Re: Need help
You were charged with:
2. (1) Subject to the regulations, no owner or lessee of a motor vehicle shall, (a) operate the motor vehicle; or (b) cause or permit the motor vehicle to be operated, on a highway unless the motor vehicle is insured under a contract of automobile insurance. 1994, c. 11, s. 383; 1996, c. 21, s. 50 (3).
The Penalty:
Every owner or lessee of a motor vehicle who, (a) contravenes subsection (1) of this section or subsection 13 (11); or (b) surrenders an insurance card for inspection to a police officer, when requested to do so, purporting to show that the motor vehicle is insured under a contract of automobile insurance when the motor vehicle is not so insured, is guilty of an offence and is liable on a first conviction to a fine of not less than $5,000 and not more than $25,000 and on a subsequent conviction to a fine of not less than $10,000 and not more than $50,000 and, in addition, his or her drivers licence may be suspended for a period of not more than one year. R.S.O. 1990, c. C.25, s. 2 (3); 1996, c. 21, s. 50 (4); 2002, c. 22, s. 33.
As Argyll stated above, I highly doubt you received a $500 for one infraction, let alone 2. I have a friend who was charged with the same offense. He was charged $5000, but they gave him 5 years to pay it, and yes he did go to court.

Re: Need help
OK thank you for your help.. I went today and found out I'm able to pay all my fines in one spot.. And also got my list. The 2 most expensive fines are both for no insurance. Not that it really maters I know what I was charged with I just wanted to show the people that think they know what they were talking about. And thank you again for the people that answered me.
Re: Need help
So not 500 each then......
Re: Need help
Yep plus another fine or 2 added in. The first no insurance I was also charged with giving an invalid insurance card thing and the 2nd one I was charged with no insurance and invalid plates. I got them knocked down because I'm on social assistance and a single father of 4 so they showed me mercy

122 in a 90, received some disclosure need help deciphering
I was stopped for allegedly doing 122 in a 90. I requested disclosure and like most received the minimum. The notes are just a photo copy with no explanations or typing.

Testing is noted in two times written at the…

Golf carts
I can't find the category for this post so I'm posting it here.

fight stop sign
I got ticket for failing to stop at stop sign in Toronto. i heard that the police officer must see the stop line, if there is one, from where he was sitting. That is exactly my case, Is it a strong case? If so do i need a picture to show that there is a stop line and a picture to show that he could not see the stop line from where he was sitting?
Any help would be appreciated
Disobey Sign Section 182(2)
Hi OHTA forums,
I got pulled over for disobey the "No Heavy truck" sign, on the ticket it say Highway traffic act Section 182(2), but I think I didn't disobey the "No Heavy Truck" sign, because my truck was loaded with delivery items(which at the time it was under 5 tonnes), I didn't request for disclosure, the cop that pulled me over didn't even check my truck to see if it is over 5 tonnes.

Antique Radar Detector...
I picked up a brand new (old stock) Fuzzbuster a while ago at auction (wopping $5!!) and I want to mount it on the dash of my old GTO as a cool accessory when I show it at car shows. But I'm not sure if it's legal or not.
Here's my thoughts:
- It is early 70's technology (x-band) so it won't detect modern police radar. That's assuming no police force uses the old x-band frequency.

Hello all,
I got one and what my surprise was when I found out it would cost me 4 d.p.
Later on, after thinking it over, well, at regular highway speed it can be really unsafe and dangerous.
No accident. Hwy 401.
Very lightly snowing with thin snow bands between the lanes. Slowly moving with speeds ranging between 10km/h and 20km/h.
I was aiming to change lanes from the left to the middle and then to…

95km/h in E0 km/h zone - Fatal error??
I received a speeding ticket this past weekend, and although the officer was nice and gave my 6yo a coupon for a free slushy, I want to fight the ticket.
The officer wrote the offence as "95km/h in a posted E0 km/h zone" the "E" being what looks like a written backwards 3. Now I know and you can probably guess he intended to write an 8 but that is not what is there it is an incomplete 8 and…

G2 Drive BAC Above Zero
Hello,
I wasn't quiet sure where this should go, so I am going to try here.
I am 25 years old, and I have had my G2 license since March 2010. I haven't upgraded to my full G only out of not really having the time nor cash to do it as of yet. In early February of this year I was pulled over by an OPP at a RIDE program and blew a 0.031 BAC. I was unaware at the time that I was supposed to have a BAC…
Improper left turn

I approached the intersection, following the same path as all the other traffic, just to the right of the centre line. When I…
Summons To Witness
I have received 2 pieces of paper on the door of my home within the last week. Looks like I am being summons to witness for an accident where the other driver was at fault last year. (He hit me and was charged at the scene).

Crossing a closed road
Highway 21 is often closed in the winter. I and a lot of other people need to cross Highway 21 to get to work. Several people have told me that if a highway is closed, it's not only illegal to drive along the highway, but to cross it on any intersecting road, because while you cross it you're technically driving on a closed road.
Is this true?
