Ontario Highway Traffic Act

The onous is on the crown to get the trial scheduled within 11 months of the ticket being issued. There is plenty of case law, here on the site that pertains to this very subject......... how you do this in court is up to you. Remember though, that you are not a lawyer and you don't need all the fancy jargon, just bring a copy of the CANLII ...

Your neck and spine should have some natural curvature.... that might be what they are talking about.

Call the court office, number should be on the back of your ticket, and explain what happened. They should allow the change.

Yup, it's a no no, same as radar detectors.

I'm glad you have learned from this, and I am also glad you didn't get completely @#$%^& in the process.


Now, don't do it again!

Take your own pictures and present them as evidence in court. Make sure you take them, that way you can testify to the validity of them. If you don't see the sign, "no right between Time X and Time Y" then the ticket should get tossed.

That would be an extremely strong accusation, you had better be sure that it happened if you intend to bring it up.

After an amount of time, if there is no response from you, the courts "assume" you are abandoning the appeal. If you wish to continue the appeal, then go to the hearing and state why you are. If it's a matter of missing correspondance then this will be srted out. This is one of the "checks" in the system to ensure the courts are not revisiting ...

Sounds like a verbal warning to me.......... Try this, get the light fixed and take a picture with the date on it. If this comes up again, you have proof of the fix.

Not a big deal.

I'd still fight it based on the fact that it is an unassumed road.

The city bears no responsibility for the road, therefore has no right to enforce their by-laws to it.

They have basically stated that it's not their road........ i'm not sure how this would stand up, it is only my opinion.

you were north of Orangeville on hwy 10. That is not a big distance to time 2 vehicles. Disclosure is definitely needed.

Not as far as I know.

Put a sticker inside your window, "Converstions May Be Recorded"....... see what transpires.

Hi everyone,

City of Ajax has a 3AM - 6AM no parking on streets rule that doesn't get enforced often. I don't even know why that rule is because snowplow trucks don't even show up till 8AM. First ticket in 5 years on a road beside my home that has a sign which says, "Developer maintained - Unassumed Road,....city bylaws apply".

My questions:
