Re: 3132 Eglinton Avenue East Scarborough ON M1J 2H1
The question you need to ask yourself is: Were you either on a highway or about to enter a highway when the offence was committed? The placement of the sign was probably on city owned property which usually extends well beyond the actual roadway. The location was on Eglington Ave and the Walmart is between Beachall and Mason, so there doesn't ...

Re: license suspended for over 3 years.
If you didn't have a full G class licence in Ontario when it was suspended you will probably have to re-start the whole process again. A class G1 or G2 is only valid for 5 years and prior to expiration you either have to test for the next level or do a retest for that current level to renew it.

Re: Commercial truck requirements
Here's a simple explanation of the requirement for the Annual Inspection. The most common problem I have found is that people don't know that this applies to personal vehicles as well as those used for business. (Pretty much every dual wheel pickup requires an annual inspection)

Re: Speeding 110 on 100 zone
You can just pay it if you want to and there is no need to appear in Kingston. Any ticket has the potential to raise insurance rates depending on your record and your insurance company. If you decide to fight it, you or your agent must appear in Kingston for the trial however, the prosecutor will bump the ticket back up to the original speed of 144 ...

Re: Parking within 3m of fire hydrant, when it's more than 3
It's not likely that the charge will simply be dropped. You'll have to enter a plea of not guilty and fight the ticket if that's what you want. Two arms length isn't a standard unit of measurement.

You've indicated in your original post that he was charged with fail to remain already. So the answer is yes. That charge does fit your description of the incident.

Depending on how far you have to travel to the court, they may pay mileage in some areas. And if you simply don't show up a warrant may be issued for your arrest.

The accessible permit simply allows someone to park in a designated disabled parking spot. It is not a permit to park where you want and not receive a ticket.

Re: FAILURE TO PROCEED AS DIRECTED AT GREEN LIGHT
I assume you entered a plea of not guilty and requested a trial. If you haven't, then you've already been convicted beacuse you only have 15 days to act on the ticket.
You need to request disclosure as soon as you receive the notice of trila and see what evidence the officer has to suppirt the charge that was laid.

Maybe you should go into some detail about the incident/testimony and how you got pulled over and charged with the offence. Then we can probably tell you how the officer identified your vehicle.

Date of offence and date of conviction are on the abstracts that I look at in court. Can't say about the ones that the insurance company may get. As for demerit points though (insurance companies really don't care about them) they come off after 2 years from the date of offence.

He won't have to show video evidence of the fail to stop unless of course if it exists. You'll have to wait for a court date and disclosure or speak to the prosecutor and come to some agreement.

Re: Ontario Resident 33 over in Alberta
Just so you're aware. If your Ontario licence is suspended as a result of the unpaid fine, your insurance company will take it more seriously than just the speeding on its own. And you'll still have to pay the fine to get your Ontario licence back as well as a $150 reinstatement fee. Is it worth the risk?
