Now another situation people...say you were turning off a roadway, and clipped a pedestrian who was walking on the sidewalk? Could you be charged under the HTA as you were leaving a roadway to a private property? Instead of like on this case leaving a private property onto a roadway. Thanks in…
Hello Folks,
I am at it again helping someone fight a ticket, this time in London. I have a few questions dealing with the disclosure request.
The prosecutors here seem to have gotten smart to the usual tactics. They now include a whole page (instead of the 2" tear-off slip) with one side for filling…
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…
Hey Guys,
I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this... I'm a tractor trailer truck driver, and although i didn't get a ticket, Last week, I was involved in a conversation with my boss and fleet manager about removing snow off the top of the rig.
I found this article online, which…
So today I got my first speeding ticket from going 80 km/h in a 50 zone, reduced to 70. I have been in an accident before so my insurance rate is already pretty high, yet I don't really handle my own insurance as I am the secondary driver on my family car. I'm also 20 and still have my G2, which…

Hi all,
I received a stunt driving ticket earlier in the year (171 km/h in a 100 km/h zone) and attended my summons earlier this week, where I received the disclosure.
I set a meeting for an early resolution for this Friday (March 16th, 2018). Would any of you be able to help me review my disclosure…
Hi there,
I was curious if there is any way that demerit points can be reduced or taken off of one's record after the tickets have been paid. I know in Alberta one can take a 'safe driving course' after a certain amount of time with a clean record and get demerit points taken off. Is there any such…
Warning tickets
I just got pulled over earlier today and i was given two warning tickets, the tickets were:
1) careless driving
2) Fail to signal
Now i know that warning tickets don't affect your driving, i was told by the officer that the next time i get pulled over these two warning tickets will be issued. What i want know is how long do those warning tickets last in the system??
Thank you!!
Re: Warning tickets
I've never seen a warning "ticket" before. What police service issued it and is it on an actual form?
Police agencies will typically keep local, internal records regarding traffic stops. How long the records are kept would depend on the agencies policies, but police only have six months for most HTA offences to lay a charge.
Re: Warning tickets
I've also never seen such a warning ticket. Can you scan a copy of one (e.g. the careless charge)? Remember to block out any confidential info.
Re: Warning tickets
A few years back, a family friend received a warning ticket from Peel Police for doing a rolling stop at a new stop sign.
This was the warning ticket; it only had the vehicle's license plate written on top.
Re: Warning tickets
Thanks for the scan. I'd never seen one before. Peel region is always so innovative.
Re: Warning tickets
I've worked in 2 jurisdictions where we gave warning tickets like these but they never carried the provision that they would be converted into real tickets upon a further infraction.
Re: Warning tickets
I think the original poster may have slightly misunderstood what the officer was saying. If I had to guess I think what the officer meant was that the warnings would be noted in that force's computer system and that if the OP was pulled over again the next officer would see the warnings and be less likely to cut the OP a break on the new offence. I don't think the officer meant to say that the old warnings would suddenly turn into real tickets.
