The owner of the vehicle would receive the ticket (your friend).

This ticket can be paid and forgotten about. No one knows who was driving so the ticket never attaches itself to a license number. The only real consequence here is the fine.

The next part depends on how good of a friend you are. You can either ignore your friend or offer to pay the ...

No. A wrong address is not considered a fatal error.

You have the right to the lane the HTA determines for you. If there's two lanes, then there's a designated lane for both parties:

Right turn at intersection
(2) Where a driver or operator of a vehicle intends to turn to the right into an intersecting highway, he or she shall, where the highway on which he or she is driving has marked lanes for ...

The 1st picture that is supposed to show car has crossed the line on a red light doesn't clearly show that.

The purpose of the first picture is not to show you across the line. It's to show your vehicle at the line while the light is already red. It's to show the light had already been red before you entered the intersection.

1- picture does ...

Your story is all over the place. Was the phone in your hand or was it mounted?

Toronto has tons of exemptions for handicap permit holders. They are not limited to your typical blue wheelchair spot.

That includes things like: free metered parking, parking in no parking zones, parking on streets that require permits, spots with time limits, parking on a street for more than 3 hours, etc.

There's nothing stopping regular joe from reporting you to an officer.

The officer will look up the address of the plates and send you a generic letter letting you know that someone had reported your driving.

That's about it.

Was this a case of your license expiring after 5 years?

Did you receive a letter? Have you switched addresses?

Either the officer who shows up can provide first hand knowledge of the evidence relating to the charge (speeding) or not. If the officer who is present can account for testing the unit and all the relating evidence, then the second officer wouldn't necessarily show up simply because they spoke to you.

Also, you've left us hanging with no ...

If two officers help piece together a charge , then yes.

If two officers are simply sitting in a vehicle together, the answer is most likely no.

Tickets can and will be amended to their original speeds once the trial process begins.

If you're looking to plead guilty on your trial date, you can do that too. Just show up and tell them you're no longer looking for a trial and you wish you just plead guilty to the ticket you received.

If your ticket has the option for an early resolution meeting, you should probably consider it. They'll either make you an offer for a lesser charge or not.

From an insurance perspective, careless driving is in the worst of the worst category. 100% surcharge and you run the risk of being booted from the standard type provider.

Any offer from the ...

You'll find your answer in the Ontario Safety Inspection Regulations.

The answer is no, you can't drive without a bumper or hood. Your vehicle would be considered unsafe.

Front bumper is always required and has to be in good operating condition (eg: no exposed sharp edges, collapsed portions, etc.).

If you hit a pedestrian, the idea is that ...

There are some special circumstances where your G2 license can be extended.

Example A: The only available test date is past the expiring date. If you book your test before your license expires, it will be extended to the date so you can complete the test.

Example B: You've held a G1 for over 4 years and just completed your G2. That would make ...

Insurance providers will absolutely issue a surcharge for missing particulars and anything in that realm. Any time an officer asks you for a piece of information, whether it's your license, insurance card, etc... If you fail to provide anything and are convicted for it, you will be assessed a minor surcharge by your provider. They'll all be minor ...

Novice drivers are required to have a blood alcohol content of zero . No alcohol whatsoever.

As far as insurance goes, they will treat this the same way they treat any drunk driver. If you're incapable of driving without drinking while under probation, you're definitely a risk when you're finally given more leeway. That's why it comes with a 100 ...

You can try calling the courthouse. Sometimes if you live outside a certain radius, they give you the option of calling for an early resolution.

Under the Highway Traffic Act, there is no guideline. It's up to an officers discretion. An officer is under no obligation to give hard numbers on how loud your exhaust is. Meaning, they don't have to sit there and measure sound. An officers reading is their ears.

Some municipalities may also have noise bylaws targeting exhausts. These are the ...

"I don't care about the fine, I only care about insurance" is probably the most common issue posted on these boards.

Barring some stroke of luck, the ticket is not going away.

Based on your post, you're looking to have a trial. Select the trial option, wait several weeks, and they'll send you a Notice of Trial. That will have your trial ...

Your answer may differ province to province.

1) You'll need to know the requirements for a school bus when receiving and discharging passengers. For example, in Ontario the driver would have to be stopped before activating the retractable stop sign.

2) In Ontario, you'd either be charged as the driver or the owner of the vehicle. If you weren't ...

You were not charged at the scene. Had you passed the bus illegally, they would track down the owner of the plates. That person would be charged as an owner and not a driver since no one can confirm who was behind the wheel.

There's no points or insurance implications.

Your insurance provider uses the Ontario Fault Determination Rules. The rules are used by every insurance provider. They are the standard. The providers will be concerned with who pays what in the form of percentages.

Officers are not looking to determine fault percentages. They don't care. That's not up to them to decide. They may decide to ...

I don't get it. What exactly are you assuming here? That all officers who use radar on the side of the road wont put their car in drive and follow you? That does happen.

They might not pull you over right away for several reasons. The most common because they want to know who they are pulling over before they stick their face in front of your ...

The signalling is largely irrelevant. A signal is not an open invitation to change lanes willy nilly. Either a lane change can be made safely or it can't.

Based on your first post alone, it would be easy to assume the truck driver is at fault, which is why I think people are asking a lot of questions. While I sympathize with the disadvantages of ...

Quick look on Google shows he left most lane splits off into a left turn lane, the right is actually the straight/right turn lane. The capture is a couple years old. Has the road changed?

I don't quite follow how that makes his statement false. It's common for officers to follow a vehicle before pulling someone over.

"v2 (vehicle 2) turning eb (eastbound) onto Bowes St from Great North. V1 (vehicle 1) attempted to pass on the side as v2 (vehicle 2) was making the turn hitting v1 (vehicle 1) in the intersection"

It's hard to read the rest. It sounds like the main issue of contention and confusion here is that you were ...

This is one of those situations where you'd hope they might offer a reduction to 149km.

If they end up doing so, it might be worth considering the offer. The difference between 49km over and 50+ is way too big to pass up on.

I'm assuming you're under your parents policy.

If you live in their house, you have to be listed on their policy. If you want to be removed, you have to fill out an exclusion form. It's a form saying you won't drive their cars.

After that, their premiums would return to normal.

You will not receive any demerit points, but that is the least of your problems.

You are a Novice Driver. You fall under the Escalating Sanctions program. Your license will be suspended 30 days upon conviction for your BAC above 0 charge.

Insurance wise, you're looking at getting booted. BAC above zero for a G2 driver is usually treated the same ...
