Speeding in a Provincial Park
Good afternoon
I was recently charged with speeding in a provincial park zone. The officer told me that it dosent matter how fast I was going in a provincial park, since the fine is exactly the same ($100), and it comes with no demerit points. Just want to know if what i was told is true. Thanks.
Section: H.T.A. section 2(c)
Re: Speeding in a Provincial Park
There are 2 seperate ways to be charged in a Provincial Park
1) Provincial Parks Act. Something like... greater than the posted speed limit with a set fine and no points....does not matter how far over the limit a person is (sounds like the offence you received)
2) Highway Traffic Act. Normal speeding fines and demerit points.

Great! Thank you for the reply.
The offence says "Speeding - Provincial Park - More than 40km/h", and the reference is to the H.T.A. Reg 620 2(c) which is the provincial park speeding regulations. Just the fine it is then.
Thank you for your help.
Re: Speeding in a Provincial Park
Are you saying that this offence has no implications on insurance ?
Re: Speeding in a Provincial Park
Remember a 0 demerit point charge is considered at least a minor infraction by your insurance and can cause your rates to go up.
Insurance companies do not care about demerit points. They are completely irrelevant to whether your insurance goes up or not.
I know this is essentially a glorified parking ticket but there are principles here. I'd really appreciate some input into this one.

I just received a parking ticket for parking outside of the space, to me that is crazy because I was parked in the corner of the lot, was not blocking anyone or a through way, so I thought there is no harm. I've seen people park there all day and not get a ticket.
I can hardly read the ticket, can…

They are going to have problems with outstanding radar tickets and hopefully will switch to LIDAR.

Hey,
So i received my first speeding ticket...officer claimed I was doing 73 km/hr in a 50 zone. He did reduce it to 63 - should fight it? The ticket did not mention a cross road. Its just states N.B on Caledonia. I don't believe d points are affected but I'm worried about insurance.
Do I have a case…
Hello everyone,
Exactly a week ago today, I was caught going 135 in an 80, on Highway 3 near Windsor, Ontario. I know this is just completely idiotic and there hasn't been a minute since I was charged that I haven't been smacking myself for this. I'm very, very remorseful and just overall torn about…
I was making a left turn, didn't have headlights on and was putting on my seatbelt at a time. Really stupid thing to do, was very stressed out and just feel dumb about it. What am I facing, and what impact will it have on my insurance? On ticket it just says Careless driving, there are no details..
