I recently got a red light camera offence fine of $325.00. This is my first offence, I have no speeding tickets. The car is under my parents name so I was wondering if I should pay the fine or come forward and plead guilty and ask for a deduction. I'm 18, a university student, I work part time I think I can make a fair argument that'll reduce the fine. Plus I wasn't speeding or being aggressive, the speed reading on the ticket says 46km/h. To be honest, I don't remember doing this at all and it must have been just a huge mistake of me not noticing. The thing is, if I plead guilty does that mean I'll have 2 demerit points taken away and my insurance will go up? I'm trying to think about it cost wise to see if it's worth it or not. Also if you plead guilty and submit as to penalty is it a trial? What's the whole process? Edit It says I should exercise an option within 15 days of getting this notice. Does that mean its 15 days from the "Date of Deemed Service"?

these tickets go to the registered owner of the car not the driver. You can pay the set fine or go to court and ask for a reduction. it won't show up on your licence, but it may show up on the reg ower's licence. if you go to court, you can admit to driving and may have it transferred to your name to save your parents, but then you will definately get the points

I was at my parents' house in Mississauga early this week, and my mother told me about this SUV which always parks down the street for four to six hours a day, headlights on and the occupants inside. When she takes her afternoon walk, she will usually see a man and a woman inside smoking or…
Last week, around 9:30 at the Britannia water purification plant (Ottawa), undercover cops put on their lights. I was outside of my mom's vehicle (van) about to go for a simple #1 in the bushes (even had a bunch of tissues in my hands) when one officer asked me what I was doing (my bf was also…
We are living in the age of digital video. HD 720p and 1080p CRYSTAL CLEAR Video. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video is worth a million.
I had video evidence for a case but it was not accepted. I apparently did not submit it properly/ at the right time. Despite this I had my ticket…
According to current regulations, no electric car can be driven in Ontario (and anywhere else in Canada except BC). Do you find it somewhat ridiculous that, despite all the fanfare about the environmentally friendliness talk, and high gas prices moans, we cannot use the most…
Hey guys i just wanted to know what speeds you see others do on the roads on a regular basis. As we all know no body drives 100 km. It seems they only hit that speed twice once on the way up and once on the way down.
it seems the De Facto limit on the 401 is about 120-130. But lately i dont know if…
I might be moving from Manitoba to the Ottawa area.
My question is, I drive a 4x4 truck and my summer tires stick out beyond the fenders about 1.5-2inches. Is that illegal in Ontario? If so will installing fender flares take care of the problem? Also the truck has True dual exhaust (2 pipes from…
Okay so while at school today i parked on a residential street in Hamilton Ontario. the person in front of me did not pull up very far so i was forced to park fairly close to the driveway of the house i was in front of. I got out to make sure they had plenty of room to drive out if they wanted to,…
Just wondering if I can get some help on what to do for this ticket. I have a court date on August 17th. I simply cannot afford this. I haven't had an offence in years, and pay attention to my speeds now. One night when I was too focused on the road and not the speedometer, I get pulled…
I got pulled over for doing 147 in a posted 90 zone on hwy 17 heading east towards Ottawa where I live. My car was impounded for 7 days and the officer took my licence. I'll probably go with one of those traffic ticket places. I don't feel like driving to North Bay 4 or 5 times.
