"yada yada yada" and doing twice the speed limit,

yep, right there

you have potentially 2 convictions, which is not a good place to be, (insurance wise) it's either 2 or 3 convictions and there is a highly likely chance they will drop you, depending on your insurance company

should i fight it then? i am not sure what my line of defense could be. it may just be my word vs cops but is it good enough? forgot to ...

I "dont" think that would be classified as a fatal error, but someone more knowledgeable than me should be along to confirm

What I mean is, sometimes cops will give you a ticket,.... for something, then tell you, "I'll give you a break,I'll only do you for xyz instead of abc, so you' only get a smaller fine and less points"

So you think there doing you a favour, in so far as a smaller fine, "BUT" as far as insurance are concerned, a conviction is a conviction is a ...

and it's a conviction which is important (insurance wise) as opposed to the demerit points

thnkxs



I believe the standard clause is that "the owner shall not drive or allow the vehicle to be driven unless that person is authorized by law to drive it." This is more a matter if the driver lets their licence become invalid or suspended but could also apply to plate validations. Court rulings have come down in favor of drivers against ...

I have 1 question and one solution...

I in the end didnt do anything, but the guy did get a ticket and said car has moved and no longer therer

1> so what is the sticker for, how/does it relate to insurance? I read somewhere if you don't have a sticker and get into an accident you insurance is invalid/or they could walk away?
if there is no real ...

hmmm, wondering if someone can give us a bit of info/advise

there's a car that's been parking on the road near my house, 1 door down,
usually on the road and not on the driveway, most of the day and all night,

as per "On-Street Parking: Parking on City streets is limited to three hours, unless otherwise posted. This offence is enforced on a ...

re-reading the post ... and THIS IS JUST an IMHO

I don't think anyone will come knocking, they didnt want to get involved with an insurance claim, possibly not having insurance or having a high insurance,
otherwise they would have got out and your daughter and them would have had a conversation

sometimes its ALWAYS GOOD just to get out (don't ...

also BOTH parties left the scene of an accident nes pas?

so ,
you get into a FB, both parties wait, the both parties drive off, "not examining the cars"
without getting out and looking how did EITHER party know the damage was minor.

whoes fault was it? was it a 50/50

other than the legal stuff, that's a part I don't understand, was it a small gentle "kiss off" or more
cars are designed to break easily ...

thats it

ok, so it can't be a suspended sentence.
I can see how it works for a "crime" or "criminality" but speeding convictions... doesn't make sense

hey there, what does a suspended sentence mean with regards to speeding ?

"A suspended sentence is a legal term for a judge's delaying of a defendant's serving of a sentence after they have been found ...

So your on probation, so if you commit another offence what happens then ...

do you have dashcam?
that you could only submit at trial , not ER, although they may listen to the reason, chances are they wont do anything

they wont care, speeding is a (forgot the word) finite (?) you either where or where not
even 1kmh over is speeding

IF your life was in danger, you where going to hospital with somone with a gun shot, you ...

just to answer your questions, not advise, just from my own expereince
I assume you where doing 72 in a 50, not 72 over (Thats bad)

First, thanks for this great forum and all the advice I see you guys have given to other people.

I got a ticket for going 72km/h over in a 50km/h zone. I was driving my wife's car and have no previous tickets or ...

this info might help

"only if the car remains parked there.
These courtousy tickets are not valid and do not have to be paid. If you leave your car there Toronto Parking Enforcment (refered to as T.A.G.S) will give you a "park private property" ticket. Which can be $20-$30 depending how fast you pay them. After that ticket is issued for 20 ...

what jsherk says, can't add anything to that

and I hear ya, back in the day (40 years ago) in a land of tea and crumpets, our folks used to teach us the same thing, we also had a healthy respect for the law, always spoke the truth.

dude, nowadays I live by the following code

I am fighting a handheld device ticket in February. I was stopped driving a commercial vehicle and got a whole raft of tickets, one of them being using a handheld device.

I don't believe the officer actually saw me on the phone, if he did it would have been a very quick glimpse as he passed me on the highway in the left hand lane. I had admitted ...

cool,

txs for that, I thought as much



The Ontario Drivers handbook is available free online and has some good illustrations of where to stop. The front of the car is to be behind to stop line.
Stopping across the line is a $110.00 fine
Depending on how far after the line she stops, it could also lead to a charge of red light- fail to stop. A ...

a question,
wife has an annoying habit of stopping after the white lines/on the pedestrian walkway when she hit's a red traffic light

Can she get a ticket if she does not stop behind the white line?
if so is it the wheels or the car front (i.e. bumper)

I understand sometimes you might hit the white line or an inch or 2 afterwards
but to be right ...

thats bad,,, and one thing I'm worried about
if the cop says HE SAW YOU and he didn't, then of course that's lying, isnt it pervert. course just.?
your word against him,

thats one reason I want to get a dashcam for back, front and inside

also if true, then one cop as usual spoils it for the rest

good luck

Yes on the back of the ticket it will have 3 options, I believe option 3 is early resolution,

basically, you are confirming you are guilty and want to plead a lower fine.
they won't be interested in any real explanations, although they may ask,
speeding is either you where or where not,

(I can't remember the bands) but say, you have
10-20 over ...

always ask............
sometimes you do need a para for sure
you live and learn

see my response, dont think either speed is a major but speeds are a minor

and all the insurance are concerned are with a CONVICTION, whether major or minor,
2 minor convictions are just as bad as 2 major's AFAIK

can you not go to early resolution and plead, if your NOT going to fight it, might as well do that, you DONT loose anything
At an Early ...

I believe that the below is correct

"Getting a speeding ticket means your insurance rates will go up.

Yes that is true. All minor speeding tickets (up to 50 km/h over the speed limit) will affect your insurance rates.
A major speeding ticket (more than 50 km/h over the speed limit) may result in your insurance being cancelled at your renewal ...

^^^ yeah viper gets my vote to

another hint look at the STARS and post count

sometimes it depends on the ticket

for example, I got a speed ticket, decided to go to resolution, got it reduced, still got points, but I only had to pay the fine.
(obviously got help from here)

And as most folks will tell you, some firms will only do the same thing that you can do anyway

so for example, you STILL have to pay the fine anyway ...

with anything on the internet, when it's on its on forever and a day, also the posts can only be edited I believe for a certain time span so you may come back in 24hours and can't edit anything so my advice to you is

1> DOUBLE/TRIPLE check what you want to post, do it anonymously, i would even go so far ...

cool,
I have heard of it done, but in the UK, and usually by a red light camera,
cars move out of the way or into a junction to let a emerg veh through and gets snapped

but, txs for the feedback
cool

Suppose a, emergency responder, fire, para/police instrcutred you to jump a redlight to give them way

The only defense to an absolute liability ...
