Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Sorry to hear it didn't go as planned. Did you get 129 or 119? If you got 119, your insurance company, depending on who they are, won't hit you with a huge increase. They might not increase your premiums at all. Getting 10 km/h knocked off the charge also saved you a little bit of money in the short run, and may have saved you from an insurance ...

If the officer does not show up, the Crown essentially has no evidence. They have no witness, really nothing. So yes, ask for it to be dismissed.

Just to verify... in your post above you said that you selected that you do not want to challenge the officer but then you got a notice saying that "this is to confirm that you want to challenge the ...

This video kinda shows what can happen:

25% of fatal accidents in Toronto, and about 18% province-wide, happen because someone runs a red light. 0.12% in Ontario are due to street racing. 7% province-wide are due to "excessive speed."

I think that running a red light should be six demerit points, a $1000 fine and a seven-day licence suspension for the first offence. Second offence ...

If you ignore the ticket, you get convicted. I'm assuming that you want the easiest way of beating this charge. The appeals process is a long and lengthy one with no guarantee of success.

The clock is ticking on the charge, if you haven't decided to fight it yet. The "right lane exits" SIGN, if it was in Toronto, has to be bilingual. If the SIGN ...

After your daughter has sent in the ticket with the "not guilty" part checked off, get a trial date set and make sure to request disclosure from the Crown to see the evidence that the officer has regarding the speeding charge. No radar? Okay, so he might've paced her after he turned and followed her. Is the speedometer of the cruiser calibrated ...

Yes, select the trial option. I think you can fairly easily prove that the streets named do not exist, but that probably won't be enough to quash the ticket. Which sign were you ticketed for disobeying? Was it a "right lane exits" sign?

I've never heard of this... is this legit?

Here's a link to the French Language Services Act website.

And here is the actual law itself. Long read, but you can decide for yourself if it applies or not.

Don't ignore a ticket ...

Demerit points for the offence won't be on the ticket. If you do not respond to the ticket, you will be deemed not to dispute it, and a conviction will automatically be entered against you. If you choose to fight it, use advice from the following website:

Why could Tim Mulcahy not see that?

I dunno. Tyler Mulcahy's insurance should've been astronomical based on his age and traffic convictions, so it's not like he could've hid it from his dad. Tim Mulcahy didn't have the guts to stand up to his son, for whatever reason it may have been...

MSP have a tolerance of about 7 to just over 10 MPH, it seems, except in construction zones (about 3 MPH when workers are present). They also stop drivers who are going too slow. Sheriff's Deputies also patrol I-94 and they generally give up to 10 MPH over the limit. The Taylor Police, who always park a cruiser on I-94 just east of Telegraph Road ...

I belive most (if not all) of Autobahn has the speed limit of "No less than (something)". The speed limit is also adjusted via overhead displays depending on weather, traffic conditions, and there are different speeds for each lane.


Some of it does, yes. The Berlin Ring had variable maximum and minimum speeds, as I recall. There is a ...

I lived in Detroit for two years. In that time I drove extensively in the state of Michigan. On average Michigan drivers go 10-20 km/h slower than their counterparts in Ontario. I used to drive regularly between Detroit and Battle Creek on I-94 and Detroit and Saginaw on I-75. I'd usually, conditions/traffic permitting, go 80 MPH, which is 10 over ...

Looks like traffic enforcement is being heavily used as a revenue generator in Detroit. REALLY heavily used.

I'm in Detroit a lot. There's always a speed trap somewhere.

It may be worthwhile to investigate the effectiveness of limiting the hp of one's vehicle based on driving experience regardless of age.

Personally I think the laws were fine just the way they are, but you raise an interesting point, maybe a revision to graduated licensing?

It would've been better if the kid's car had been taken away when he ...
