Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Because a defence would be to say that you actually did have proof of insurance........a reason is explained why you didn't

I would guess the officer ran it, printed a copy and put it in the file and whoever does disclosure just included it. I wouldn't worry about it - it won't be admitted at trial.

Do you have those witnesses details for trial ? Regardless I suspect you could cast a reasonable doubt on this.

He had a brain freeze. Ticket should be quashed. You got away with one.

It's not criminal and I spoke with my insurance broker and she said they don't consider it for insurance rate increases. Get two or three and they might.

It is a ticket however and will be on your abstract.

If you're right you may cause him some professional issues but the bottom line is you were suspended, your plate was expired and you didn't have insurance. The nature of how he came to stop you isn't going to alter those facts.

That's ok. The next post will say that the damage to his car was $949 and $50 to hers so he's ok.

File a complaint with the city. No ticket HAS to be issued especially if the ticket issuer doesn't believe an offence has occurred. The manager did this to cover his ass only so that the city didn't have to pay the bill and to leave you on the hook for it (excuse the pun).

I'd be filing a complaint against the manager. The dispute is between the ...

So therefore I say again: you tried to scam her out of over $8,000 by getting her to repair things that were already damaged.

You've gone from wanting $9,000, to wanting $1,000 to not wanting anything to being willing to pay her in the space of this thread.

At this point I think you cut your losses and just go your separate ways.

It will still count against you with your insurance agency. There's the Collision Report and you'll have to declare it on renewal anyway.

As an ex copper, what a chintzy ticket to be given. I feel for you.

Atmospheric, which probably isn't a bad thing.

Yeah, ok...........don't you have another site to go and troll.

I'm not trolling. I know its crazy, but I could not think of anyway to get introduced properly to her. I find it so hard to make new friends and talk to people I don't know and this was my only hope. And I fear rejection so much.

Anyway about the accident, it was a slight bump with ...

You absolutely are scamming. Had she pulled out a cheque book and paid you $9000 on the spot you would have taken it and even arranged for her to pay that full amount. Only when we tell you that you can be charged do you suddenly change your story to that fact that she only caused $1000 of damage. If the proceeding is true, and it's a huge if, how ...

Wow, it's crazy day on the boards. Nothing like changing your story depending on the replies you get. So let me get this straight: you initially were trying to scam the other driver out of repairing things that were already damaged. Now you think you're at fault your claim miraculously drops to EXACTLY the amount you can claim without reporting it ...
