Ontario Highway Traffic Act

Are you worried they are going to come after you if your husband says he wasn't driving?

Your husband was given a ticket with zero points because they don't know who the driver was, but he is still responsible as the owner of the plates. If they knew who the driver was, it comes with 6 demerit points. Since he received a zero point charge, they ...

Careless driving is exactly that, careless. It doesn't mean there has to be an accident or you narrowly missed another vehicle. It just means "without due care and attention or without reasonable consideration for other persons". (See: Careless Driving )

The officer seems to think you were careless with your lane changing and merging it seems ...

Congratulations. You really got a raw deal the first time around. It's good to see everything worked out in the end.

Your best move was interjecting before another date was set and explaining how both adjournments were not due to anything you had done. Had you kept quiet, you would have been doing it all over again. Good move.

So there were no witness and no collision report? I think you'll be fine.

The driver can make his way to any Collision Reporting Centre and file out a report. An officer will be there to file your report and take pictures. Officers don't report to these type of accidents.

Worst comes to worst he would bring it to court, you can argue there ...

I parked on the street in front of my house and got a ticket at 4am for parking in excess of 3 hours. There's no signage and Scarborough doesn't have parking permits so I don't even know how they can enforce this bullshit to begin with.

Parking more than 3 hours on a street requires no signage. It applies to all street parking.


Anyway, my ...

You turned left into incoming traffic. You are at fault.

Thank you so much... Probably how many days should I wait for the police or for a letter to come to know my charges?

I don't know the exact number of days. Maybe someone else can chime in and help.

Either way, most likely scenario is the owner of the plates will receive a fine just under $500 with no points involved. I don't believe this will ...

Hi good morning... Yesterday while I was driving going to work. I failed to stop in in a school bus flashing.im a new driver.i realized my mistake after passing the school bus... No police in the area.. What is the charges I will get. And what will be the impact in my driving record and insurance.. I'm so paranoid I can't sleep with this stupid ...

The case was adjourned for a different reason: I couldn't read the officer's writing so I wasn't sure if I was charged with 136.1.a or 136.1.b.
The officer photocopied and gave me his actual notes from his notebook then and there. New trial date was set for today (Jan. 22).

If you unknowingly received the wrong notes and only received the ...

Parking at least 3 metres from a hydrant requires no signage or markings in the City of Toronto.

It's up to the prosecutor. 33km over (4 points) to 15km (0 points) is quite the leap and some prosecutors will refuse. You'd definitely be able to get down a bracket to 16-29 (3 points). You'll have to schedule an early resolution meeting or trial to find out.

Any thoughts or comments on the above strategy, or anything else for that matter?


If there wasn't enough time for you make the left and you felt you had to stop in the middle of the opposite lane instead of proceeding, how could you argue you afforded the other driver a reasonable opportunity to avoid collision? Why not just make your turn ...

Can you post the offense and the section number as written on your tickets?

Here's what the Highway Traffic Act says regarding properly wearing a seatbelt:

How to wear seat belt assembly

(5) A seat belt assembly shall be worn so that,

(a) the pelvic restraint is worn firmly against the body and across the hips;

(b) the torso restraint, if ...

Are you expecting them to drop the ticket?

When it was my turn for defence, I motioned for an adjournment and requested the delay be attributed to the Crown. The prosecutor argued that I didn't provide telephone number so he couldn't reach me even the disclosure was available since early December. I then argued that I have provided my full mailing address in all the requests and an ...
