Hi Happy New year 2010. Today while I was waiting in a line of vehicles on the right lane to enter the Clark blvd. school kiss and ride, the cop came and gave $65 ticket to all the vehicles which were in the lane. The ticket says high way traffic act 170(12) and offense is interfere with traffic. There was a "no parking sign" but not "no standing" sign. We were all seated in the car and not left the car parking on the road. It is the most common scene on all the school area. All the vehicles were turned on their right indicator. As I understand if there is "no parking" sign we can stop the vehicle but can not park. If there is a "no standing" sign we can not even stop the vehicle to drop or pick a passanger. Please let me know whether I did any offense here? This is my first ticket and do not want to pay if I am not at fault. Thanks in advance for any suggetion :evil:

Thank you very much for your reply. I am in the process of obtaining pictures of similar scene near other schools in this area. Any suggestions/ inputs are highly appreciated
You should definitely dispute this ticket.
Interfere with traffic offence does not have any demerit points but may still affect you driving abstract.

pulled over leaving a survey in guelph. After arguing with the officer for about 10 minutes, he mentioned something being wrong with my truck. Told me to put on my emergency brake, and i did. Told me to put it in gear, and i did, truck did not move. Told me to hit the gas, and i did and the truck…
Got two very heavy tickets -- for failing to stop for a school bus, and for using a handheld device. Was running late in a morning rush traffic in Toronto and apparently passed a school bus on the opposite side w/o noticing its signal. A few meters after that I stopped behind the other cars waiting…
I recently received a ticket for proceeding contrary to sign at an intersection. While there are other issues with the offence (sign is not visible until 10ft from intersection, officer wrote wrong license plate number on ticket) my biggest question is about the sign itself.
I posted here a *while* back when I first got my speeding ticket, and I've been fighting it forever. Anyway, long story short - I went and had an appeal and both the prosecutor and the Judge agree that I have valid grounds to appeal on, but what we're arguing is whether the correct remedy is a…
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…
What is the requirement for stopping when a school bus is traveling down the roadway, initiates the flashing red lights while still moving but has not yet stopped? If a motorist is traveling through an intersection (through the free-flow approach, minor-street stop controlled) and an oncoming…
In 2005, the government passed legislation that enabled the introduction of variable speed limits at some point in the future. It didn't take effect right away, so it sat waiting for "proclamation by the Lieutenant Governor." Just by chance... I was reading the HTA earlier while browsing this…
I was on my way to work on a divided four lane highway. I was in the right hand lane following the flow of traffic. There was a slower car ahead of me and I wanted to change lanes and maintain my speed. When I looked in my left side mirror, I notice a red car going pretty fast in the passing…
So i got charged with Hand Held Device, just want to ask everyone if i could use this as my defence
It was midnight, I was dropping my fiance to pick up something on north bound Yonge st (near church) with my emergency lights on, Officer came and asked me to move along so i went up a few streets and…
