Good Morning Y'All


As the holidays are fast approaching, and it is getting darker outside faster, I would like to remind people that LIGHTS ARE MANDATORY 1 HOUR AFTER DAWN AND 1 HOUR BEFORE DUSK.

On a side note, I'm really tired of people driving without their lights on (especially at night, driving a black car). My question to you is, Can I ...

If you choose to take the stand, here's something similar to what might me said.

CP: So you were speeding 72 in a 50.
SR: No, I was doing 59 in a 50.
CP: How are you certain you were doing 59?
SR: My speedometer said I was traveling at 59 km/hour.
CP: Is your speedometer a digital speedometer, or analog speedometer?
SR: It is analog. (95% of cars ...

So I keep checking the City of Toronto Website, The Ticket still has not been filed. If I'm not mistaken, there are certain time periods where the ticket needs to be filed in order to be valid (7 Days IIRC). If it happens to pass that date, what would the procedure be to get it quashed?

Sorry about that Decatur, that's what I meant. Sometimes the words come out the opposite way than intended.

I'll be honest, Yes I have been licensed for 5 years, and I have screwed up back when I was in high school. I've been working on bettering myself, knowing that driving is a right, not a privilege. From 2012-2014 I did not recieve any tickets until that one Disobey Sign, and ever since then, I've been downhill, but trying to get back on the right ...

Looks like it. Guess I'll be waiting to file this ticket and request my disclosure.

That Clearly looks like $265, which would make it a fatal error. You should ignore the ticket, and it should be quashed. Hopefully the Justice of the Peace will see the error and dismiss the ticket. If the JP messes up and you DO receive a notice that you were found guilty, then you have to file an appeal and you can get it thrown out that way ...

Take a Picture of the Ticket with all personal information Blacked out.

The set fine should be $260. If it clearly looks like $265, then that is a fatal error.

So Again, I really don't know how I'm attracting attention to myself, but I am.

Saturday at 1:30 in the morning I was pulled over on the 400 for 142 in a posted 100 Zone. Honestly, I know I was speeding, but I thought maybe 110-120 (I'm trying to clean up my act.) Anyways, Pulled over, Ticketed, Explained 3 options on the back, and we departed on ...

Unlucky Duck's the name, getting tickets is my game.

Unfortuatly, I was driving in Mississauga on Derry Road at Goreway and to my surprise was pulled over by a YORK REGION Officer. Last time I checked, that was Peel. Anyways, I was told my license plate light was out, followed by him asking for my ownership, license and insurance.

After waiting ...

There is almost a 0% chance of a deal being made on this. Prosecutors may drop a stunt speed if they are over 2 or 3 Km/H maybe even a bit more on a good day, but being over by 68, not going to happen. You will be fighting the stunt charge as laid.

Reread the original post. It was 88 over, not 68. Really surprised you only got stunt. I'd try to ...

Don't quote me on this, but aren't you supposed to report an accident to the insurance company within 24 hrs or they have the right to revoke your policy, or something like that?

Somebody gave me an Ontario Drivers Licence because I knew what stopping meant at the time.

http://www.ontario.ca/laws/regulation/900615
It's part of your G1 written test to know what the sign means. Look under stopping signs.

They could make it easy to understand in Toronto too, but I understand they need the money too badly to prevent people ...

Hey Everybody,

6 Months has passed and still have not recieved anything in the mail (knock on wood). Lets say this goes past 10 months and still no trial date set, can I file an 11b? Just curious as this might be a lot easier than actually going to trial?

He signaled every lane change, so that wouldn't be laid. Sorry for leaving that out. As for the totality of the incident, does an accident have to occur for careless to be charged? Or can it be just someone driving stupidly?

Just a curious question that came to my mind during my drive to school. I was on my way, heavy traffic as usual during rush hour. Traffic was moving at approx. 40km/h in a 60 km/h zone. All of a sudden I see a black car doing approx. 60 km/h swerving through lanes. My question to you guys is, what charge could be laid if an officer pulled him over ...

Juat curious. Even though the black SUV didn't stop, it held it's lane, and the vehicle with the dash cam made no attempt to he their lane. So wouldn't that be an unsafe lane change by the DashCam vehicle therefore 100% fault for the dash cam vehicle?

1) this is the general public expressing their opinions. As far as I know, it could be a police officer, Justice of Peace, Prosecutor, Justin Trudeau, Donald Trump, etc. Best thing about being anonymous, no one comes after you. Personally, I'm a 21 year old college kid who knows the law a little too well.

2) You have to sign on, how else would ...

Don't quote me on this, but you're supposed to apply for a permit within 7 days of purchase (or something like that), reason why you got #5. Since you never applied for the permit, that explains #1. Dealer plates can only be used if the vehicle is owned by the dealership, which explains 2 and 4. Usually garsge/ dealer insurance covers those ...

I can't edit my previous post. But for clarification, she paid it, then took the money from me if people are wondering.

Thanks for all the input. I knew that we could have properly gotten it dropped, but she was paranoid and paid it off the next day.

Also, jsherk, I thought because it was an LLA offense, it wouldn't show up on her drivers abstract (32(1)). At least that's what her co-worker told her (She works as a Lawyers assistant at a Law Firm handling Insurance ...

So as I start, first I'd like to say that I paid the ticket, just wanted your opinion on the matter.

So labour day weekend, I went clubbing with my girlfriend. I had A LOT to drink, she had nothing (designated driver/responsible one out of the two of us). Anyways, I was drinking in the parking lot, and had half a bottle of vodka left over, so put ...

First off, let me clarify the meaning "Early Resolution". A lot of people believe this is where you can walk in, and pray that the prosecutor drops the charge, no. I think the old title of this would be better, which was "GUILTY WITH AN EXPLINATION". It's HIGHLY unlikely that this will get dropped, but then again I got Stunt reduced to 15 Over ...

Usually what happens in these early resolution meetings is the prosecutor tells you what you were charge with, and then offer you a reduced charge if they want. You could probably get it reduced to Left Turn - Not in Safety which carries a fine of $110 and 2 points. If you agree to it, they'll explain how to pay it, if you try and challenge what ...

Keep in mind, 16 over carries a total fine of $55 and 3 demerit points. If worst comes to worse, see if the prosecutor will offer a plea to 15 over. Some may argue that its only 1 km, but the total fine is $52.50 and 0 Points.

This car wouldn't happen to be a black Dodge Avenger would it? :lol: I got pulled over in a rental because of the same thing. I showed the cop my rental agreement, and he didn't charge me. Maybe the luck of the draw I guess. But ultimately, you should not have given the rental company the ticket. They could forget to pay it and have no ...

Just Re-opining this thread. So I took pictures of the area on the next day after I received the ticket, but used my cell phone. I took pictures last night using the Court Guidelines (Raw Format, Time and Date Stamped, Etc.). Would they still be able to be used in court?

Remember, speeding is an absolute liability charge. If you go in saying that you were speeding, but doing 110, not 119, they will easily convict you. Just keep that in mind when preparing your defense.

I guess maybe he saw it was my birthday and decided not to ruin my day? I honestly don't know and I am WILLING TO PAY the ticket. Just all my family is saying to fight it, so I thought I'd come here and get an unbiased opinion on the situation from random strangers.

Good Morning Everyone,


So just so happened to be my birthday, as well as my grandmother's funeral today. I currently am still in shock over the passing and sometimes zone out and think to myself. This morning, I didn't happen to pay attention to my speed, and that's when I got clocked. The officer pulled out from a plaza, almost ramming my car ...
