Your best bet is to pay for a sticker immeditely and show them at an early resoultion. Sometimes they will drop it.

Having an "s" at the end of your street name is not going to make your ticket disapear. Also, you don't need notice. It's a courtesy. It's your responsibility to make sure these things are in order before you step into a vehicle.

Going through a stop sign without stopping is an absolute liability offense. It means you either stopped or you didn't. There's no middle ground or explanations. "I didn't stop but...." means you're already guilty. Even if you could provide an explanation, you should have been driving according to the conditions. If weather is a problem, drive ...

Yes.

It's not a guaranteed you'll go to one and receive the same offer at the other. That being said, it's usually the same or something similar.

You have to exchange your license within 60 days of moving.

You can only exchange a VALID full class license. You'll have to sort out the suspension issue first.

You'll have to provide a couple forms of identification. Check the Ontario website for more specific details.

You can do it at any Drivetest Centre. I believe there's only one Service ...

You don't have to go through the mandatory wait times.

Insurance is going to be another issue though.

You have to report any accident to your insurance provider within 7 days. If you are unable to do that (eg: you're in a hospital), they'll expect you to report it as soon as possible.

The other party as up to a year to file a claim against you.

Your rates are based on the information you provide them. Providing incomplete information can see your ...

She explained the situation to the officer, but ended up getting the maximum fine of $325 and 3 demerit points.

This is probably written down in the officers notes. If you hadn't waited till the absolute last second, you could have requested disclosure and found out for sure. If she's already admitted guilt to the officer (which it sounds like ...

The closest thing in the Highway Traffic Act that deals with hand position would be the distracting driving law (eg: just the act of holding a cell phone). It doesn't apply here, but it's the closest thing. Now if I replace the cell phone with a sandwich, it's no longer distracted driving because it's not an electronic device.

Depending on the ...

What I don't get is how come I got charged with 2 acts, shouldn't the officer choose one of them?

The short answer is no. The long answer is we probably don't know enough about your case to give you a definitive answer. There's lots of circumstances that can fall under stunt driving that will see you get charged. You don't have to be speeding ...

You're going to have some issues here and I don't know if you're going to get away with it that easy. It's quite possible a prosecutor will have enough of your excuses and move forward with some, or maybe all of the charges.

You were pulled over 6 months after your sticker had expired. You forgot to renew.

You tossed your ticket away and never ...

As already pointed out, doctors are required by law in Ontario to report any condition that would affect your ability to drive. They do not have a choice. They are also compensated for their time filling out the form, so there's really no reason for them not to do it. There's a list of conditions that would have to be reported. Alcohol related ...

So my friend does not loose her Licence as she had quite a few rockets in the last 2 years

It would probably be in your friends interest to request a trial. The points wont show up until a conviction and any outstanding points will continue to roll off in the meantime. You'll also have a meeting with the prosecutor on that date anyways. 90% of ...

You are at fault. Signalling is of no relevance, nor is the distance of the driver behind you.

Also I only just got the disclosure and I'm not able to read her handwriting. My court date is on Feb 11, which means there is less than one month left before my trial and when I sent the request for my disclosure I did specify that I wanted the officer's notes typed.

If you are still having trouble reading the disclosure, simply make another ...

Registered Owner.

Fair enough, Im just saying in other photos I've seen of red light tickets I see the cars in the intersection, I dont know why they wouldnt show mine there too.

It's common for these tickets to show very little of a vehicle if the offense was committed while making a right turn. It's just the nature of making an immediate turn versus continuing ...

Like prove I went through the lights opposed to going right?

They don't have to prove you went straight. You either stopped or you didn't. Going right doesn't negate your responsibility to stop before making that turn on a red. You have to stop either way.

You didn't stop. You didn't even come close to stopping. You were traveling at 31km when ...

The ticket will have all the information you need. Perhaps you should look over the ticket first.

It'll usually have a picture of your vehicle behind the line while the light is red and in the intersection while the light is red. It'll also have a picture of your plate. I don't know why you went through the intersection without stopping, but just ...

Can't they make exceptions based on medical reasons?

No. You get 5 years. Once it expires, you're out of luck. You have to start over but you don't have to wait the mandatory wait times.

There are some circumstances that will get you some extra time. Some examples are:

- If you hold a G1 for more than 4 years before graduating to G2, you can ...

jkbla wrote:I'm trying to figure out whats the most likely outcome

The most likely outcome would probably be the witnesses involved in your case don't show up. If not, your paralegal will most likely settle for a reduced charge.

Jonno wrote:does the time it takes to get a meeting with the prosecutor count as part of the time to get to trial

no. its neutral.

I have some time before my second round of disclosure to decide if I want to include my phone number or not.

If they are persistent on leaving a number, i'd probably just leave one. It's not that big of a deal. I understand you want something written down, but it's not going to matter much. They can claim they mailed you something just as easily ...

Leave an email address.

I feel very deceived by this sign as I had to read this fairly lengthy sign, and figure out if I can or can not make this turn while questioning in my head if the words "ANYTIME" meant "Allowed, Anytime during the weekends" all while driving closer and closer to this turn...

1. Is there an argument that I can make that the sign is deceiving and ...

I'm looking to get a reduction, my insurance rep said that no points would be forgiven, but 3 points might increase my insurance rate

Points only stay on your record 2 years from the day you were pulled over. Your conviction is going to be used against you for longer than that and starts the day you plead guilty. Maybe they were trying to ...

3) The initial first attendant date was in July 2014 - I opted for a trial option
Given the fact that Feb 27, 2015 is longer than 12 months from the date I received my ticket i.e. Jan 16, 2014 and the fact that Crown/Officer moved my trial date, do i qualify for an 11B?

It starts from July 2014, not January 2014. That's when you requested a ...

This was my mistake. I read this as 0.02, BAC above 0, and a G2 driver.

I didn't realize it was 0.2 and you were charged criminally.

I believe for a first offense it's an immediate 90 day suspension from the MTO, $1000-$5000 fine, minimum one year driving prohibition (maximum 3 years), interlock program at your expense, possible jail time (up to ...

I'm really confused about the possible consequences, and calling around to various lawyers today only solidified that confusion. Can anyone help me understand what will happen?

You're a novice driver and are subject to Novice Driving Escalating Sanctions. Any violation of driving restrictions (eg. BAC over 0) means an automatic 30 day suspension ...
