My husband & I had been sick for several weeks & he didn't get around to renewing his plate sticker. It was over due by three weeks & I didn't realize he hadn't done it & went to get us some coffee. This was the first time I'd been outside in weeks & a police officer pulled me over for...no sticker. I had forgot my drivers license as well, but was able to recite the number which satisfied him. My question is, I don't own a vehicle so how can they fine me? His license plate is listed on the fine & so shouldn't my husband get this fine instead?

That section states the following: In other words, it's the driver's responsibility to ensure the plate is valid. While there are some things the owner is responsible for (such as ensuring the vehicle is insured), your charge is still valid even though you're not the owner.

No person shall drive a motor vehicle on a highway unless,

I hope I can paint the picture with the accuracy that the truth deserves. I have no intention of just beating a ticket.. but more like beating a really unfair ticket. You decide!

In June at 401 London and Wellington I got hit twice, speeding which I didn't realize I was doing and cell phone. The Officer made me open my purse and show him my phone. I was going to meet a Rep of my Company in Kitchener, he called I answered. WRONG! The Officer wasn't even nice. My record…
I'm going to preface this with a little concern....I know that at least one moderator on this forum is likely a co-worker of the officer who tagged me. I'm hoping that by being involved here, this moderator is already acting unbiased towards incidents he/she is not directly involved in. Also…
I received a ticket the other day that has my wrong name, wrong address and wrong set fine amount. Is the best thing to do default on it and hope it is quashed and if it isn't file for appeal as per London v. Young ?
Also for an incorrect offence or an offence "not known to law." as an example :
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…
