"Usually you can can check by attempting to pay the ticket. Either it will recognize the number on the ticket or it wont."

@Bend - If it does not recognize & 15 days pass by, will it be okay to assume ticket hasn't been entered in the system? Should I still send a mail telling them the option I want to exercise.

Basically, I just want to know if ticket not being there on the online system is same as it being thrown away & I being let go...?

Thank you Bend for your response.
w.r.t the below question, do I have 15 days time after 4-Feb to exercise one of the options?

1.) Date of deemed service is - 4-Feb-21. Does it mean I have 15 days of time beyond 4-Feb to exercise the options provided?

Also, if the case is not entered into the online system by the officer until the due date (lets suppose it is 19-Feb), what do I do?

Received my first speeding ticket in over 2.5 years of driving in Ontario. Was driving at 69 km/h in a 50 km/hr community safe zone.

Is the additional $38 ($95 minus $57) because...

Demerit points is not a concern, but impact to insurance is, considering my clean driving record of 7-8 years in the U.S. & Canada.
One of my questions still remains unanswered. If i plead not guilty (option#3), do i forego the option (#2) of reduced fines/demerit points on either of the tickets by default?

I got 2 tickets at the same time. 1.) Disobey sign - highway traffic act sect 182 (2) 2.) Interfere with traffic - highway traffic act sect 170 (12) Place: Just before the Unionville GO station, Markham I took a U-turn 70-80 meters after the "no U-Turn" signboard. I took this right in the middle of the road. In doing so, i did not realize that there was another car following mine at a distance of <30 meters which is why i got the 2nd ticket (interfering with traffic). This is my first ticket in Canada & from what the police officer told me & based on the research, it looks li...
