3 different eh? Does one of them entail D'Oh!

You weren't charged with Racing?

Pay the 15 over and get over this.

Next time, just remember that speed Kills!

56 over in a 60 zone is blatant.

You are sooo lucky the officer did not charge you with Racing.

This is the Best. Story. Ever!

Theres actually not much difference between being 12km over or 5km over in the eyes of insurance, because its STILL a conviction.

I was suggesting to fight it because you may be able to get it dropped more easily than a higher charge such as careless. Prosecutor's don't really care to go on trial with low end offenders, when they can challenge ...

12km/h over? Thats harsh..

IMO I would fight it. The worst case scenerio you would lose with a 12 km/h offense on your record instead of 5 km/h over.

Not much insurance change there for the charge.

Good case scenerio, cop may not show up, prosecutor might not feel like fighting such a low charge is a waste of time. You might be able to get it ...

You can also choose not to drive for that one year period, instead of having the immobilizer installed.

It is a pain in the ass to have it installed, but thats not the worst part.

The worst part is that you have to blow in the machine every 15 minutes regardless. If you don't your car will shut down while driving.

It also keeps a record. If you ...

Well you are clearly speaking english here.

Were you speaking english when you got your ticket?

The officer/court might think its funny if you all a sudden forgot english

Hi Biron,

Yes we are on the same page, and I also just wanted to point that, your open vehicle can be searched, but not any closed and locked compartments that you yourself can not get access to while driving.

Let's say, even if you have a locked suitecase in your car, the officer would technically need a warant to search that locked suitecase ...

From what I understood was that the trunk is a seperate compartment and can not be accessed during a routine traffic stop such as care less driving. However, Probable Cause can allow the officer to search the compartment.

But for example, if your towing a trailer. The police don't have the right to search that locked trailer, unless they have ...

Next time, give the officer your keys and ask him to open your trunk himself.

He does not have the right to search your trunk and you should never open it for him.

Great! Congrats!

Well keep us informed. This is should be intereting.

That is a dilemna.

I'm not really sure. Maybe try calling up the mto and asking them how it works exactly...

I would think though that they might use the most closest offense that relates to it in Ontario, or like you said maybe it has no demerits at all in Ontario.

It will probably give you 2 points in Ontario as well.

New York does have a demerit points agreement with Ontario. so your conviction in New York and demerit points will transfer over.

If you don't want to fight it, at least try getting it reduced.

See if you can go to First Attendance meeting and ask for a lower charge/fine.

Idiling bylaw now applies to TTC

Maximum fine for idling cut to one minute

Toronto's idling bylaw got a tightening at council this week, to make it easier to enforce on the public - and for the first time, to make it apply to the Toronto Transit ...

New Toronto motorists face new one minute idling bylaw

"The City of Toronto has passed a new bylaw that limits idling to one minute, reports say.

The bylaw includes TTC buses for the first time, the Toronto Star reports. The fine is $125.

Council voted 24-13 in favour of cutting the maximum idling time down from three minutes to one.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but if you have been charged with 144 (18), I'm under the understanding that it is a $250 charge with a $50 victims surcharge (Whatever that is, ... a crock).

If I am correct this would be a fatal flaw. What you would have to do is choose to fight it, then NOT show up for trial in hopes the the JP sees ...

Excellent point there Biron. I would never have thought of that!

Change is always "Good" however, getting fat at an early age due to technology which is causing this is not so good of a "Change"

Not saying kids don't exercise or play sports anymore, and I'm sure the hockey club is full of kids, however, things like Technology is making it harder for them to do so, or better yet they do NOT choose to play sports ...
