Ontario Highway Traffic Act

It depends what kind of driving abstract you ordered. There several different types you can order, one shows the past 3 years of driving history, one shows the past 5 years and one shows your entire driving history going back to when you first got your licence. The 5 year abstract and the life time abstract are restricted and can only be ordered by ...

The insurance companies don't look at the number of demerit points you have, only the number of convictions and whether those convictions were for major or minor offences. So offences with no demerit points can still effect your insurance. They typically only take into account the last three years of your driving history so you don't need to worry ...

You can call the court house where you filed for your trial, the number is on the back of the ticket. If you don't have the ticket anymore you should be able to look it up on the website of the city where you got the ticket.

I found the specific regulation that allows vehicles with green plates to be in the HOV lane. It is O. Reg. 620/05, s. 2 ss. 9. If you meet with the prosecutor I would print a copy out and take it with you in case he or she isn't familiar with it. I have pasted in the link to it below.

You can call the courthouse and see if you can get an early resolution meeting with the prosecutor, your case is so clear cut that they will almost certainly withdraw the charge. Unfortunately you will still have to go down there and meet with them in person, however the meeting will probably be quicker then a trial. If you can find it I would ...

I'm not totally clear on what you are asking but I will take a stab at it. If you made the turn 5 times and there was police officer there each time then yes they could ticket you for each turn. If there was no police officer there at the time you made the turns then there will be no ticket as the authorities will have no way of knowing that you ...

Since jail time is a real possibility I would hire a paralegal if you can at all afford it. They know the system and will best be able to tell you whether you have a case to fight the charges or whether they might be able to work out a deal that will keep you from getting locked up.

If this is several years old and nobody has said anything by now, I really wouldn't worry about it. What ever damage may have been done I'm sure has long since been dealt with. Anyway even if you somehow manage to find the owner of the car, and if that person finds damage, that person will still not be able to make an insurance claim. The accident ...

Yes filing for trial was the correct thing to do. You should have a chance to meet with the prosecutor on the day your trial is scheduled at which time you can try to work out a plea deal or decide to fight. In the mean time start preparing as if you are going to take it all the way to trial, that will show the prosecution that you are serious ...

One of the officers who post here might know better, but the only thing I can think of is that she might have been trying to engage you in conversation to see if you were drunk. The more you talk the more she can look for signs of impairment like slurred speech or trouble remembering basic facts like your own eye colour.

I guess theoretically your friend could be charged under section 142 (1) of the Highway Traffic Act for Turn Not in Safety, but the cyclists could also be charged for riding on the sidewalk. Bicycles riding on the sidewalk would be covered by a municipal by-law, so the exact charge for them would depend on what city this happened in. That all ...

I believe the Crown has 6 months from the time the offence took place to issue a summons. So theoretically if you went to the first attendance meeting and pointed out the error on the ticket to the Crown they could withdraw the ticket that has the error on it and issue you summons to court. This would correct the error and eliminate the advantage ...

When you get your court date in the mail make sure to file a disclosure request and get a copy of the video tape from the officers dashboard camera. If the video shows that you were in fact stopped at the red light then that would really help your case. There should be a sample disclosure letter in the court procedures section of this site.

I could be wrong but I believe that if you don't show up they can only convict you of what is on the ticket although they will add a $5 court fee. That having been said if you are thinking of not showing up I would call the prosecutor and see if he is willing to plea bargain with you to a lower speed, the worst thing he can do is say no and you ...

As manwithaplan said this will not show on your driving record as it only shows convictions, suspensions and number of demerit points. The officer may have filled out a contact card with your information which would be kept on file at the local police division, but that information would only be available to officers within the Toronto Police ...
